Well, shoot how do they get their heads stuck with no horns? I have goats with horns and without , but usually it's the same ones that keep getting stuck with horns hooked.

Thanks for your support! I want to add that I normally don't chain up my goats, but I have never had one as bad as Devilgoat for jumping fences and eating plants I don't want her eating. Can hardly wait for the next auction!

Oh, hi coach , I am going to a sale tomorrow too. Got to get rid of the rest of my spare roosters.The feed bills are scary around here. I have some chickens already in cages. As it is, I will probably get up at 6 am, which is early for me. I am not a morning person.
The chicks are hatching out pretty well this time, I have bins full of them in the garage. I just emptied out a brooder, can't believe how fast those chickens grew! They got moved into the duplex that has a nice big run attached. There I was, driving the Mule around in the dark. Of course , the goats had to come check it out to eat any spilled feed in the back. If they are in the barnyard, I have to take the key out of the ignition because the goats will take it and I only have one. I priced the keys at the dealer, and they cost like $40. each. You can't just have one made at the hardware store.
  These pop up showers are giving me fits! Every time I go out  to feed the goats it has to rain!  Naturally, they don't want to eat their pellets if they get wet.:-P I guess it is going to be very hot next week, everyone drink lots of water, you will need it!

Try looking for feed mills or co-ops in your area. You can get bulk feed delivered sometimes too.;-)
