Fence begats fence.
Did the perimeter fence and now I want to expand it to include the electric easement and corner of the property so I won't have to mow it. Some of it can't be mowed because of large rocks sticking up. I also need cross fencing. Also need to cut down some trees to bring in more sun and need to clean up brush piles and burn off leaves. The goats are all out of pasture. They're eating stuff as soon as it pops up, keeping it trimmed to lawn height. They came from a pasture situation evidently because they're not into going into the woods. The buck is bolder but sticks with the females. They ventured all the way to the back yesterday because I was out there so they felt safer. I don't see much poison ivy being eaten which is supposed to be a goat's favorite thing. Maybe they like it better when it's more mature. Maybe they don't know what it is. Weird. Last goats we had spent most of their time in the woods. I've seen the buck on his hind legs eating leaves but the does always have their head down like a cow or sheep. I guess they'll come around. Meanwhile the easement plus will give them another acre of pasture and save me mowing. More fence
Obligatory goat pic. Yesterday, all three of them were laying on the hood of the truck on the right, chewing their cud and soaking up some rays
