My goats made me look bad....

[Roll farms]

Had some folks show up last night to pick up 20 buff orp chicks.
As usually happens, they see the goats / dogs and start commenting so we start jawin' about goats...as you can imagine, I can jaw about goats quite well ( ).
Where she's standing she can see more of our backyard than I can.

She says, "I'll never have goats again. I just could NOT keep them penned."

I say, "Really? We had a few escapees in the beginning, but haven't had one get out in years after we plugged all their escape routes and electrified the fence." (And really, we haven't...I SWEAR.)

She looks at me like I'm fulla goat poop...then points to the yard and says, "Are those SUPPOSED to be out???"

And sure enough there are Peyton, Reggie, and Jaz, trotting around the pond like they belong there. Reggie I'm pretty sure was looking at me like,

Now...I'm just positive this chick believed me when I said "F'real, this is the 1st escape in a long time." (Then said a hasty goodbye as I had to go play goat wrangler...)

BAD, bad, BAD, goats!!!

I'd forgot to mention how the little jerks got out....The breeding pen they're in is part of the old 5' llama chain link we put up. Very flexible at the bottom and one of the best escape hatches we USED to have...until, we put RR ties around the bottom and steepled it to that...no more bendy-bendy / escape hatch.

Well...that's been a few years and we didn't notice the RR tie had rotted away / the fence is now loose.

TOTALLY getting a spare RR tie and fixing it this am.

Stupid goats...
