    Fence signs

    I would like to put signs out around our pasture and could use suggestions. I have had a few neighbors coming closer than I would like and one of them told me they brought some things over to our bucks one day to eat. I know they don't mean any harm and I don't want to be rude but this is not...

    Have some questions about pig and goats

    Do they require anything special? We use 4x4 field fencing and its fine for our goats. Are they very messy? I want to make sure I have thought of everything before we decide.

    Thinking about an LGD, need advice

    Thank you very much for taking the time to answer. I actually prefer having an excuse to keep people out of the pasture. I've been made to feel the bad guy several times when I wouldn't let kid's in that I knew would chase the goats. My first thought was a M/F GP team. How would you go about...

    Thinking about an LGD, need advice

    How are GP with people approaching the fence line? We often do have play dates or random family members stopping by with kids wanting to go see our goats. I've just began my research so I want to really be realistic about what to expect. I've tried looking up breeders in my area but not...

    Thinking about an LGD, need advice

    We have recently started having some trouble with wild dogs. There is a creek that runs through some property a few miles from us and people have started dumping dogs around there. Over the last several months we have spotted them in our pasture at least once a week. They have never came up...

    Our Barn

    I just thought I would post an update now that we have had this set up for over a year. My husband is out rearranging things today so hopefully this helps someone new. We had the storage inside of the pen and barn. I did not think this would be that big of a deal but I was WRONG. The goats...
