goats - pregnancy

My goats have free access to their Goatie Taj Mahal, I have dogs that live with them and a donkey. I have only shut them up tight one time due to my neighbor calling me and telling me that a mountain lion was walking through my yard. Closed them up for a few nights after that , they hated it. Bah bah bah all night! Sometimes when I go to bed very late, letting the cat out, they hear me at the door and they come running from the other side of the pasture no where close to their shed. Go figure!

The coyotes do get very close. We have found them within a few feet of the barn normally after chickens. I just know she will hate being locked up alone in a stall though. I'm thinking perhaps about just closing the gate to the semi secure area with the other goat and mini horse and using a baby monitor and then moving her into a totally enclosed stall when we hear something? Does that sound reasonable?

I would love to see pics of kidding stall areas if anyone wants to share.

Thanks!! I love BYC!
