Goats just love to climb and they love having benches in their shed. They do use them and no straw is necessary.

Put a couple of half down the middle pallets in but they're not using them - sleeping beside them but not on - they're only about 6 inches off the ground - should they be higher? - might try putting a bit of straw on as my girls might be a bit soft around the edges

I mucked-out the goats today and took the opportunity to do something about the flooring.

Our goat house is 6ft square and I put a 3ft x 4ft pallet covered with plywood down as a sleeping stage, clovered with hay, and left the remaining floor area bare.

The girls prompty investigated and settled down for a nap while a short shower passed over.

Seal of approval, methinks.

hmm ... I didn't put ply on the top, its just the boards, maybe a flush surface is required - I'll see what lies in the wood shed....

We have pallets covered in marine ply. The goats love them. On sunny days I stand them outside the house to let the sunlight clean them.
