With our nice weather, I’ve decided I can let my girls having kids stay outside. I don’t have to shut them all in small pens to wait for delivery.

I did however decided I wanted to separate them from the rest of the herd. That means, I had to build a temporary fence across the barnyard, from the corner of the Love Shack pen to the corner of the greenhouse pen. I did this about three years ago (the last time we had nice weather over spring break), and it worked well, so my first day of spring break was spent getting this set up.

I had just put the panels out, when the goats came up from pasture. Those wethers are so helpful.

Finally, I got the fence up with everyone on the Back Forty side.
Moose would like to lodge a complaint.
I moved most of the girls over. The only two left for me to catch are Zinnia and Mary. And they are the last two due, so I’ll try to catch them in the next couple of days, and it will be fine.

Mary
It didn’t take long for them to figure out to go out to pasture.
Annie (Cutie and Reva on the front pasture)
Gidget and Victoria headed out to eat.
It won’t be long before 2TC has company.

I did have to shut Maggie and Harley in the Love Shack because they just are not up to running around.

Cookie I did let out. We’ll see how she does. There’s room in the Love Shack if I need to put her in with Maggie and Harley.

Of course, Marge and Chiffon are wherever they want to be. Silly bratty girls. I’m not sure why the are in the Love Shack eating hay, but they have to go through there to get from one side to the other.

I think I’m ready for kidding to begin!
