If you do build an angular barn, I would LOVE to see pictures of it! :) We are building a small structure as we don't have room for a barn.

As far as the MJ, being in CA and being in a place that has a lot of "hippies" there are stores all around here that sell it. As far as goats....I admit, I gave one of my goats some the other night (our neighbor has a grow license-I don't smoke it) but she didn't care for it. She was SO sketchy and out of control. Not sure what was wrong with her. But I have never seen her like this. I was kind of fearful for her safety. After some major talking we got a little for her. She took a little bite, wasn't impressed and dropped it. Normally I would be horrified to hear of someone doing that (I always hated in high school when someone would joke about blowing smoke in their cat's faces, etc. made me so mad!) but I was really nervous for her. I wont be doing it again as she apparently isn't a stoner. :cool:

OMG----- so SHE DID NOT INHALE???


Seriously ..... Please so me some pics of your barns and also what do I need inside the barn? I am new to goats. I figure it would be nice for her to have a place for her hay to go instead of the small bucket of hay maybe a place where she can pull hay 24/7...... what else do I need?

On my facebook is a bunch of our barn photos and set-up. we like to beable to take everything out and clean the barn and then put it all back in, so all of our stuff is designed to be portable.

Do you have a facebook account?

in the inside:

this is a creep feed area for the babies. This can all be taken down and moved.

movable kidding pens:

Feeders on one end of the barn, with 8 foot boards extended from them to keep the goats from fighting as bad.

We designed the barn with a future horse in mind, but I really like having a split door, if you need to close them in and still get some air.

on the outside of the barn we have an overhang, this is great for hay storage, and extra pens.

I highly encourage, feeding all hay off the ground.

I will get you some barn pics as soon as this weather is such I can stand out in the barn for more than 30 seconds without dripping in sweat. I do not know how y'all down further south can stand it. I feel for y'all.
