Response to Keeping goats where they belong...

from Karen Mauk (dairygoatmama@hotmail.com)
Monica, It is really hard to keep a goat in a pen once they know how to get out. The cattle panel idea is the best one. Also if you have a hay feeder inside the pen, this gives them something to munch on and usually will help keep them inside. I cull goats that like to escape. Most of mine are happy to stay inside a regular field fenced pasture. All my pens have hay feeders in them. The bucks have cattle panel pens, and even the big boy got out one time when he got love-struck by a particularly fetching young doe. karen
