The only thing i don't love about it is that the walk in opening is only 5 feet high and I'm 5'4". Not good when I haven't had my coffee yet. Ouch. I told hubby that was going to happen but he insisted.

I have a few pics of our new barn while it was still under construction here (along with some progress on our house...and some bloopers by my poor husband with the tractors)...

The way we have it is 6 pens that surround the barn. The sheds are 10' overhangs, closed on the north end of the barn because that's the direction the weather comes from here in winter. Most pens have access into the barn, and the pens that don't have barn access have additional 3 sided shelters outside.

:cool: I don't get wet when I feed - designed it so I'm under a roof the whole time. This is a lesson I learned from our property in GA.

One of these days I'll get new pics of it...it looks SO different now.

I use 6 ft x 12 ft heavy duty grade chain link panels. I also use T -posts to secure the panels. Each panel has barbed wire on top as well. I was fortunate that a neighbor had 20+ of these panels for sale at $15. a piece...what a steal that was!

We have an old tobacco barn with three sided stalls along one side. There is a hay rack all along the back of the stalls so it seperates the stalls from the main part of the barn. There is a door in one little section so I can walk from the inside of the barn to the stalls. The barn is currently filled with hay with storage above. I use welded wire fence. There are pastures connecting this little area of 2-5 acres each so I can segregate animals and roate.

I have and 8x24 barn area for my goats. 16ft for the girls and 8ft for the boys. I have small pens 20ftx80ft for the boys and same for the girls. These pens will open up to a larger area once i finish getting the posts and fence up. I use 5ft no climp wrapped wire horse fence and treated posts every 10ft. I have a bunch of pics on my website if you want to see them www.duffyfaintinggoatfarm.com.
