For the last week I’ve been debating whether or not it was time to close the gates onto the back half of the Back Forty. I finally did it last night. I’m glad I did because the goats headed out to pasture before it was even light this morning.
That’s when it’s dangerous because coyotes do their hunting in the morning. I feel better now, but the goats were not happy.
They might have even been silently demanding I open the gates. I’m pretty sure they were judging me.
The whole herd was waiting for me to let them out there.
Caroline was especially sure the gates were going to open. That is not going to happen until the days get longer next spring.
It didn’t take long for them to decide it wasn’t going to happen and go back to eating.
The only ones who weren’t mad were the llamas.
Well, they were probably irritated, too, but at least they were just ignoring me instead of being demanding.
I’m hoping they won’t hold a grudge toward you! It was easy to see what they wanted. Will they be likely to go out and try out again for a while?
They look sooo beautiful against the green of the grass.
They’ll check when they walk past it for a while, but they have plenty to eat.
Hello,
They will not be mad forever, they did seem want those gates open. Cute photos of the goats and llamas. Take care, enjoy your day! Have a great day week ahead!
Ha, hard to please kids! Hope you are having a good week.
We have coyotes and mountain cats. We are keeping our animal family up very close. Saw two separate coyotes way to close. I have donkeys and guardian dogs. We have some guardian pups ready for forever homes if you are interested. They are great pyrenees and australian shepherd mix. We just want them on working farms. How far along was Pam in picture of her with twins? Our Nigerian dwarf looks like that right now but she was a quadruple herself. We are excited to see what she has just not positive of how far along.
