No no, three is right.
Firstly the squirrel must pull off both of it's ears at the start of Day 1. Then the corn movement is as follows...
Day 1 - 3 ears of corn
Day 2 - 3 ears of corn
Day 3 - 2 ears of corn
...which leaves 1 third of a day on Day 3 for squirrel to have his ears reattached at the vets. :stongue: |

well pretty much, the answer is the guy puts in his own horse, so thers 18 now, then everything works out perfect with 1 left over which is the horse he takes back with him |
