A woman that used to be on the 4H board emailed me and was looking to add some girls to her small herd so she could breed them. It took about two weeks for us to coordinate schedules, but she finally came by over the weekend to see them and then came back today to pick them up.
The girls were actually very easy to catch as they each came to the gate and waited while we grabbed their collars and both of them walked right into the trailer. Maybe it was a sign.
It was strange not having them attempt to shove past me into the chicken coops when I was locking up tonight and it was strange to not have to lock the gate to the goat pen behind me.
I am a bit worried about having more predator issues now but I'll keep my fingers crossed that we won't have any major issues.
Over the next few weeks I hope to take down the top layer of fencing that we had to put up over the years to keep the goats in. It's been so mangled and messed up by them that it's looked horrible for awhile. Then I want to start using the goat pen as more of a dog run so the puppies can be around the chickens and learn to accept them and they can also get some better exercise.
