The hardest decision depends on your plans for the goats. What is their purpose? Pets? Weed control? Future income? Food? Boys to clear the property and girls for babies. Either way you will need 2 separate enclosures. Baby boys need to be separated from their moms around 3 months to prevent accidents! Nice thing about Premier 1 fencing, it can be moved around as needed.

If you are going to get rid of any girls or wethers look into the Eldridge Family. They are a young family with a 2 year old and new twins. They are trying to build their homestead but things are getting in the way. Someone gave them an intact billy baby that is coming of age. They would be well cared for and loved. About the rats and mice, why do you think everyone has barn cats? They are attracted by the feed and stuff the animals eat and drop. Pick up a young cat or 2 from the shelter. If you feed them near the hay area that would be a good place for them to live and be protected from the weather. Place is really looking good. Y’all are doing a great job 👏. Love ❤️

Bleu has been pregnant and dealing with mama hormones since before Herc met her. Her life before Shady Acres was turbulent. After the goatlets are weaned, give her time for her hormones to settle. You may be pleasantly surprised at how well she and Herc get along. Rehoming Mario is a good idea. It will give Bleu, Mama and the rest of the goat pen peace. It will prevent unplanned pregnancies too.

Kyle and Shannon you're sure making the property look so nice. I can relate to that there's never enough time in the day to finish everything. We purchased our property in February and have had a construction zone on our house since. 6 months later and we're packing to move as of this weekend. For the last 6 months I have been at our country property 4 days a week and at our city property 3 days a week. I will tell you packing a bag and moving between the properties has been a struggle. We had a set back this last week when I broke a tooth eating broccoli! 🤷🤦 Yeppers, I was trying to eat healthy and get into better shape. I broke the tooth on Monday and by Thursday when the dentist had an opening it had gotten infected. I had 3 teeth pulled and part of the jawbone removed. Just being gone a whole week has set me back on keeping our grass cut. We've been fighting poison ivy and oak too. So far I have been lucky not to get it but you should see the pictures I have of the vines taking over one of our outbuildings. The vines are about 5-6 inches in diameter and they stretch over 20 feet up the back of the building. I have ordered the materials to build our pens for our soon to be goat enclosure and have already been delivered. Now our search begins to find some goats for our 9 year old grandson that has Asperger's (autism). He already has done the research on how to take care of goats, chickens and rabbits and is ready to get them all. I finally have him convinced we can't get a Dolphin or a penguin for our pond that it's not the proper place for them to live. 😂 Anyhow I sure enjoy every video and my grandson watches every video too. He's excited to start his little farm. Thank You both for sharing your life with us. Much Love from our family to your family 💞
