Title: Play thing
Post by: maybelle on March 16, 2011, 08:42:03 pm

We had a tree cut down at the weekend and my son had an idea to put the tree stumps in with the goats.  We attached some brambles to it and they were interested in it.

We found some wood and attached it, to my surprise one of the goats jumped on it  :goat:

What a great picture - and a good idea - got my mind racing what I can do now - got the stumps but they're dotted about, how about holes drilled to stick branches into? worth a go
