Yeah I'm not even remotely concerned about whatever has to happen in spring farm-wise, other than kidding and milking. Definitely thinking about that.

I have a feeling my goats won't go out much this winter with their fancy new barn. Brats!

Can't say that I blame 'em! They'll be snug as a bug in a rug.

Well... DH has been out there working all day while I clean and do schoolwork with DD... I guess I better go try to get some pics while it's light out! He's been bouncing around working on different things, his ADHD is winning but he's been working on barn related things all day, lol!

 

[frustratedearthmother]

Woo Hoo! Can't wait to see 'em!

It's giving me attitude uploading pics so I'll do one at a time.

This is looking at the front door

And you can't tell but the roof is on now!

 

[frustratedearthmother]

WooHoo!! So nice...and that's a big ol' roof! I guess you have to have a sharp angle so the snow will slide off? Could you put storage up there? Sorry if these are ridiculous questions cuz I don't know about snow roofs.

And the back- this is where the goats go in, he framed a door and is working on building it next

 

[NH Homesteader]

Lol yes he had to build up the roof so the snow would slide off! But not too steep for climbing on if need be (for him, I'm not getting up there!)

He'll eventually put storage up there, yes. At least on the tall half, which is the goat side.

 

[frustratedearthmother]

OH heck no - roof climbing is NOT on the list of things I ever want to do!

 

[NH Homesteader]

Me either!!

Definitely have to have either 2 hay feeders or a much larger area to access hay. The queens are being... Queens. And only Clifford gets to eat with them, lol. The others are well fed but they have to wait their turn. Goats...
