It is so ANNOYING!!! I thought I'd feed him in the main part of the barn but then our other dog wants in on it and I would rather him just stay in with the does since that is what he needs to learn to do. I kind of want to take down our kidding pens and rebuild them so we have three pens instead of two, so he can have his space to eat and because it would just be nice to have another one anyway.
And I thought I was the ONLY one! Gus LETS Flora eat her food...unless there's WET food in there. Any of the other goats come NEAR the food...Gus will nicely "block" them from her bowl! Not Flora...Gus will move away from her and let her have the bowl! Drives me NUTS. Does Flora want her grain? OH NO....but you pour that dog food and she comes RUNNING! I have had to chain her up, away from Gus' bowl to make sure Gus gets to eat, on a few occasions!
Pearce...I LOVE your little barn set up! That is SOOOO cool! The different levels and everything! WOW. My poor goats have a room...no nothing FUN it their room! I gotta get busy this spring and make them some REAL accomodations!
Thanks, I like it too. I kind of want to do a little revamp when it gets warmer. Just never enough space for all my goat-dreams ....speaking of which...
(Me Singing) Pregnant goats, Pregnant Goats, I got Pregnant GOOOOaats!
Heats are done, boys are happy and going back to their space, does were all "witnessed" in the act, so now it is a waiting game until June. MAN why is June so far away!
I know, I am so excited for this every year and this year, I am especially anxious to see what we get from our two new bucks and our new doe. I so want some pretty doeling from Bluebell to add to our registered stock If not though, I will 100% be going out and buying one this summer.
I am not getting moving too fast this morning. It went from below freezing at the beginning of the week, to almost flip-flop weather in the middle, and now it is back to below freezing and snowing. I need to go change our chick bedding (and give Charlie some snuggles) but it is cold and I like my bathrobe.
