Luckily my neighbors are not super close like a subdivision and the people that purchased the house next to us, closest to the goat shelters, said the goats were one of the reasons they bought the house lol. My...

    Okay next question how to you clean up the poop? It is easy to scoop out..sort of if you have something on the ground. Also, does she worry about poop/pee smell in their shelter? I just want to make sure we do not stink up the neighborhood. It surely saves me money to put nothing down.

    Hey ya'll! I am in Texas, and it gets HOT through the summer. I was wondering what you put down in your goat sheds during the summer. Right now, I have straw down but was thinking there might be something else that might be better for summertime. What do you do? Thanks! Melissa

    Fly spray?

    Hey ya'll! What do use to cotrol flies? I noticed they are already buggin' my sheep and goats. Is there anything you can spray on or rub on goats/ sheep to keep the flies at bay? I know there are horse sprays but wasn't sure if those can be used for goats/sheep. Thanks!

    Hay rack/feeder

    umm, I don't think the fence would bend its t-posts and hog or cattle panel. I also saw big trash cans with lids that have holes cut out and hay put in the trash can. And... another cool idea I saw was a wire laundry basket, the ones that come with a cloth bag over it, take out the cloth and...

    Nasally sounding sheep

    Hello ya'll! I recently rescued a goat and Dorper sheep that grew up together. The goat is fine, but the sheep sounds really nasally, like she is congested in the nose. Her nose does run clear. She has no cough. She does have some eye crusties. She is also overweight, so she does breathe a bit...
