Another Shed Update

Jaron and I are trying to get in the habit of going for a walk after lunch. We swung by the shed to check on the animals after one of these walks. 
 

The kids are growing well. 


Brighita is getting closer to kidding, and in my attempt to check on her, I remembered the heat lamp needed to be rehung.

This is why: 


The heat lamp was hanging directly over the wood. The heat from the bulb is so hot, it's causing the wood to burn.

I rehung it higher up and used twine to pull it away from the wood braces.


The goats are enjoying their new feeder. They like to be in the back area to nibble through the sides.

The cats like the feeder too. 


It's doing a pretty good job keeping the stems inside. The black bins are catching a good bit that have fallen. 

Still some waste but much better than before! 

One final update - I stuck a log under the mineral feeder so the goats can reach it better. Unfortunately, they keep rolling it away. Does that mean they're using it or playing with it?
