After having their morning milk, the orphans left the stockades and settled down to enjoy some lucerne. Shortly after, Mutara and her group arrived and joined the orphans in feeding. Mambo found himself in a spot of trouble with Esoit when he attempted to take some food directly from Esoit's mouth. This bold move did not go down well, and Mambo quickly retreated to his mother, Mutara, for protection when things escalated. Esoit made it clear to Mambo not to repeat the mistake of taking food from his mouth again.

Milo also got into trouble when he was disrespectful to Larro, who responded by punishing him. After this incident, Milo walked over to Mayan, and they exchanged some ‘words’ before parting ways. Once they had their fill of lucerne, Kuishi led the way to the browsing field. The sky was clear, and the sun shone brightly, indicating that a hot day was in store.

The orphans settled to browse in the Kone area. Kinyei, Kindani, and Bondeni came across some loose soil and used it for a quick soil-dusting session. Meanwhile, Roho engaged in a brief strength-testing exercise with Lodo, while Sattao and Mukkoka browsed a little distance away from their friends.

At mud bath time, Suguroi led the first group, followed by Vaarti leading the second. During the mud bath, the orphans were joined by Mutara, Mambo, Suguta, Kainuk, Sities, Turkwel, Malkia, Melia, Milo, Kilaguni, and Kalama. The orphans enjoyed their mud bath, had some water, and engaged in a soil dusting exercise before returning to the browsing field. Kinyei had a brief interaction with Mambo before they bid each other goodbye.

The orphans moved south of the mud bath and settled to browse between Ithumba Hill and Imenti. Later in the day, as the temperatures became unbearable, Kuishi took her group to the roadside mud bath for a cooling-off session. In the evening, Esoit led the way back to the stockades.

Kilabasi, Kofi, Lualeni, Lulu, Lexi, Neshashi, Kenze, and Kilaguni were the first to arrive at the stockade compound in the morning. The orphans had their six o'clock milk and then walked out to join the ex-orphans. Later, more ex-orphans showed up and joined the orphans for lucerne feeding. Once they had enough, Naleku led the way to the browsing field.

The orphans settled to browse in the Kone area. Suguroi browsed with Vaarti while Larro paired up with Roho. As the day progressed, temperatures soared, prompting Kinyei and Mukkoka to seek shelter under a tree to escape the scorching sun. A wild bull passed by at a distance, and Mayan, curious, followed the bull. However, the Keepers stopped him, as the bull's destination was unknown.

At eleven o'clock, Kinyei led the first group to the mud bath. Ten wild bulls were already present, but they stepped back a few metres as the orphans arrived, allowing them space to wallow. Lodo led the orphans in a spectacular mud bath before leaving to drink water. The orphans then enjoyed a soil dusting session before returning to the browsing field.

In the afternoon, the orphans moved to the Imenti area to browse. As usual, Kuishi browsed with her favourite, Esoit. In the evening, Kindani led the way back to the stockade.

The orphans settled for lucerne soon after leaving the stockade. Several ex-orphans were present with their wild-born babies. Mayan had a great time with Tembo and Sana Sana. Vaarti joined Ishanga and had a brief conversation before parting ways. 

When the orphans had enough lucerne, Kuishi led the way to the browsing field. At the browsing field, the orphans were joined by Chaimu, Chapa, and Maramoja. Naleku, Suguroi, and Larro had a brief interaction with Chapa before Maramoja blocked them. 

The orphans browsed calmly up until mud bath time when Olorien led the way to the mud bath. The sun was hot, the orphans had their milk, then jumped into the water for a cooling-off exercise. Dad, Kilaguni, and several wild bulls were present and waited until the orphans quit before getting into the mud for a cooling-off exercise. 

In the afternoon, the orphans settled to browse west of Ithumba Hill. The orphans browsed calmly up to five o'clock in the evening when Kinyei led the way back to the stockades.
