That's good to know, about the urine draining through the stone dust. We were thinking about doing patio blocks to prevent that, along with lots of straw to absorb it. Now I'm thinking the stone dust would be cheaper and easier. Thanks a bunch for your feedback, babsbag and Southern! :bow
I personally would not do the patio blocks. They will absorb the urine for sure. I had patio pavers in my dog's run and after 4 years it was pretty nasty and they seldom went to the bathroom in the run. Goats are not so discerning. The hay really doesn't absorb much of anything.

Ok so it was so funny. When I got out of class I texted my mom to see if they were there yet and she said they were on their way. So I was headed home and I got off of the interstate and lo and behold there they were!! They were driving soo slow so I got in front of them and beat them home by a couple of minutes lol.

But anyway, the four of them were able to put up the legs and the trusses for the roof in about 3.5 to 4 hours. Then they left, with about another two hours of work to go (put the roof on). But they left their trailer with someone elses carport and their tools here so they have no choice but to come back tomorrow. :plbb:D =D So they said they will be here in the morning. But anyway, they got their truck stuck in the mud and guess who pulled them out? That's right, this girl with her lil '94 Mercury Cougar :D

I will upload pics from my phone here in a sec...
