Title: The new goats are
Post by: Roxy on October 04, 2009, 11:13:56 pm

making themselves at home!!

Hmm.....well, Molly jumped out of her enclosure today. Thought she had squeezed out somewhere.  Bobby, the billy, and Charlie her daughter, were making a right racket because she had gone.  Put her back, and she jumped again, right over the fence.....some amendments got to be made now to stop her.

Then, it was going dark, and Rick had offered to go down the track and bring Jasmine and Paddy in for the night. Not sure what happened, but Paddy got fed up waiting, and he and Jasmine set off up the track to put themselves to bed.  I met them at the top of the farm track, they had turned right on the lane, and were heading for their stable.  Just not sure how they would have opened the field gate though!!

Obviously know where they live now.

Margo knows her way from the pen into her 'milking parlour'
Not so keen on finding her own way back tho - prefers to have a wander around first... the ex-batts love her!
