Oh, and regarding totes, if anyone has goats... I highly recommend them for a hay feeder. Much less wasted hay.







This goat feeder lasted about 2 years before the current goats destroyed it last weekend during the blizzard lockup. Now the bottom is cracked and the hay gets wasted. We'll be making a new one of these tomorrow to replace the cracked one. This feeder wastes much less hay than the traditional open bar feeder.

I really like the way you have it anchored.... excellent...

I normally rolled a whole bale of alfafa into the goat pen and left it on the wagon. no snapping of strings either.... Oh yeh they wasted a bunch but it lasted my four goats almost two weeks before I had to put another in.

the new coop will have a partition for the goats... And a feeder made of a strip of cattle panel so they can eat the hay through the panel.

Okay you chicken sexperts. Any guesses on gender of this six-week old TJ's chick? (the aforementioned sky pilot...yeah, flighty)

This looks like a pullet leghorn. Catching up here..maybe someone already said the same.

That was hysterical, I can't believe the turkey kept his feet under him that long. Now to hear both were males is even funnier. The little guy just could have walked away - duh!
