So, the goats had a play date yesterday!
I got a phone call from my neighbor yesterday asking if I was "missing 5 goats". I said, well, I'm not sure if I am missing them or not. I am working and haven't looked outside lately. She said well they are over here in my yard. The neighbors live about half a mile away with two fields between us. I said, well if they aren't bothering you I'd like to let them stay. She agreed that it was ok. I kept an eye on them over there throughout the day -- I could see them in the field. She called again in the afternoon to tell me that they were being really good. (ummm... ok, thanks?)
I sent Eric over there on the 6x6 to pick them up. They ignored him! He didn't bring food or anything; but he called them and called them and they looked at him like he was crazy. Then Eric had to go to work.
So, after I got done with work I jumped on the 6x6 and drove across the field to get my goats. All I had to do was drive over there and say "Hey Goat Girls" and they came running! Once again, I was the Grand Marshall of a goat parade. They came running and chased me all the way home. Crying and running all the way. Silly goats!
I put them away in the fence, gave them some hay and grain, and a few buckets of water. Within 30 minutes they were all sound asleep. Oh, silly goats! I just love them!!
