I know how you feel Eli I was going to work outside today. Had plans to make repairs in the chicken coop, expand the garden, and if there was time before the wake maybe a canoe trip. Now I have plans to shovel the driveway and remove snow from the netting over the chicken run.

Alright I need a fenced in dry area and a good sized goat house, I decided on milking goats if I can get any. Maybe the neighbors will let me build it in their yard.

Thanks for the info. I have one more question, If the goat house is up off the ground does the fenced in area need to be well drained?

Eli, my sister thinks that you saved the rooster out of the kindness of your heart at least thats what we told her.

Thanks for the info maybe I can convince my mom to let me build a fence behind the chicken coop. How large should a goat house and run be for 2 goats?

I have wanted to get a couple of goats for awile now but my mom desnt want to fence off another section of our yard. I was wondering if it was alright to have them on say a 25ft. lead attached to a post near some fresh vegetation and a lean to shelter nearby. Then in the mornings I could hook...

How much does it cost to ship a goat or two? :D

Well I didnt have a ride home from school tonight so I walked down to my uncle Allans house and I'm glad I did. We took a ride to TSC because he needed to get some chicken feed. I noticed the brooders were out and pointed them out. My uncle had wanted to get just a few meat birds and this was...

all right see ya.

Razor sharp!

Well about the axe... I decided It would be a good S.S. skill to learn how to throw a hatchet, It worked well untill the head brone off. But I have a felling axe and a machette.

I got some great handloads for the predator problem :D

I have latin day tomarrow but I think my moms onboard, one of my neighbors complained about the rooster.

Sounds good to me.

Eli, I had a better idea for that old tough rooster we can use him to lure some coyotes into range :rolleyes: . Just kidding I think he will go in the crock pot.

I think thats a great idea Quail.
