I still cannot stop laughing about that. A few years back, Zim's sister bought a Jeep Grand Cherokee and, with a couple hundred miles on it, she stopped by someone's house to return a clean dish left over from a church function. A she stood at their front door with the dish, she heard a CLOMP CLOMP CLOMP CLOMP CLOMP behind her. She spun around to see a little goat standing triumphantly on the roof of her new car. Dents and tracks across the hood and roof. As she told me the story, I could not contain myself. I still can't! I wished that had happened to my old Jeep instead. With well over a hundred thousand miles on it, I would have kept the tracks and not had any body work done. laugh laugh laugh I still call her Jeep the goatmobile!

I guess those folks didn't have the fencing thing quite figured out!

I've sought advice from a lot of local goat herdsmen so hopefully the fencing plan I am implementing this spring will work.

So far I haven't had any get out since I got 4 goats a week & a half ago, but they eat more grass than I planned on. People told me get sheep for grass but these goats are like a lawn mower.

It's amazing how a (Pygmy) goat born in early April can still sqieeze through the opening in a cattle panel.
