Sunday was decent weather. It was still pretty cold in the morning, and the winds were strong with a bite in the afternoon, but I had to start making adjustments to get the goats out of the garage.
Goats and pens everywhere
I started with letting the girls in the buck room out onto the little pen south of the garage. That’s all any of the moms are getting for this week. I took the panels down.
Hilda and Onyx were penned on half of the buck room each
Then I opened the door and let the next group out.

Then I started clearing more panels.
The rest of them didn’t think it was fair.
As the mom’s went outside, the kids got to meet each other, and they were really having fun!
I was going to leave Purl since her baby is so young and small, but Purl put her head through the panel and knocked my concrete filled buckets down trapping herself, so I had to let her out too.

Everyone was out!
Of course, Penelope escaped, so I had to find that hole and fix the fence, but I think we’re good now.

Then I moved my three non-moms to the front pasture.
Victoria (Ostara and Pretzel in front)
Antigone (she was back to fighting with Perdita before I put her in the Love Shack)
Because with no pens, it’s a free-for-all when I shut them back in for the night. But soon, I’ll have them completely out–hopefully this weekend.
