That is a way cool barn. Am I seeing it right, do you have board floors for the stalls, and then open dirt floor in the other side? Goats are going to be so fine there.

yes id say i hear many bears howling out there but i have a loud barking dog to scare them off and havent lost anyone yet (three years now). i also lock everyone in at night and have a seckondary dogkennel for extra security becides the regular fencing (five foot field fencing). yes, there will be rocks added to the dirt floor side and a stall mat and the stall side has wood flooring with slatts and probably adding a stall matt there as well.

Nice looking barn! We have been doing the same, freezing our cabooses off building a house for the new bucks. Did you salvage that corragated metal from somewhere or buy it? We had a few sheets but now need some more to complete the interior wall the way we want it-that stuff is EXPENSIVE!

thank you,

we did salvage some that we put on the back wall like7 pieces maby and one clear one too which is really nice for the light it lets in. i bought the roofing on top at a farm supply near me for 12ft at 29 a piece so we did the whole roof with fie sheets. it wasnot tooo bad. it looks really nice though. ask arround sometimes places like tractor supply or home depot are not the cheapest.
