With the calves we have the snaps with the twist so it won't twist up and then they are staked out on T-posts with a ring or loop in the chain that goes over the T-post. not sure if it would work with a goat but, there is alot less chain twisting going on since we switched to this method.

As ornery as he is he may learn to twist it more just to make you work more.wynedot55 said:he has been pushing my temper for the last few days.so i finally fixed himi think he might learn not to twist the chain up.

Our neighbor had a billy goat once. He (the goat) stunk so bad that it almost made me gag! I can still recall that horrible smell.

They may make great handles to grab him by for you but, ask your Mom if she wants to be caught by one. Next time there may not be something for her to grab and fend him off with.
