Primrose the goat kid has learnt a new trick. She is running across the barn, bouncing off the wall at each end. Reminds me of the kids at the skateboard park. Not content with that, she is also springing from the floor and landing on Paddys back.

"They need a skateboard" well we would like a video clip if possible. Sounds like she is having a great time.

My little GG boy bounces off the wall in his pen too, so it's quite normal goat behaviour then.... The two BT girls are in with their mum during the day and are trying to jump on her back all the time.

Oh all that's normal. So is causing complete havoc. Our BA boys are banned from being loose in the goat shed now- they can get to the top of the stack of bales of straw, onto the top of the round bale of hay, on all the food barrels. Of course knocking stuff over as they go!

They cause havoc don't they!! Buckets, once empty of feed, are ideal for standing in, and putting on their heads .....and then running round the barn unable to see because of the bucket!! They can bring a smile to my face with their antics.

I put a bucket into the little male's pen with some hay for him to nibble, but all he did was upturn it and crawl inside... prefers to nibble the straw in his pen. Not sure what will happen once I introduce water bucket/shallow bowl for him to drink... towels at the ready I think!
