We are going to start our permant goat houses tomorrow. Could you all show me some pictures of your setups so we can get a rough idea of what we need to build. Thanks.

This is my barn. It's really just a stall in a shed! In the outside of the stall or shed
I store feed and keep a milking stand.

That looks really good. Does it keep him dry too? That is one of my biggest worries.

This is how they started. However, they are never locked in there anymore. They run with the horses and sheep. But I keep the pen this way so that if I had a reason, sick or ingured goat or when Nina has her babies. I will keep them in there until they are old enough to mix with the rest of the group.

I should add that I a custom pallet built that fits perfectly as a floor. It allows moisture to go through, but keep the bedding on top.

It does keep him dry. He is not as afraid to get a little wet as the girls are though. He will stay out & stand on his tree if it's drizzling rain. I was thinking of hanging a used feed bag or 2 over the opening to help keep the wind/rain out. I wish he didn't go to the bathroom in there so much. lol
