Good planning / goats in feed room

[Alice In TX/MO]

We have our feed in big trash cans that have snapping down (secure) lids.

Apparently one of the doors was not quite secure after milking tonight at about seven.

When we went out to give the orphan buckling and lamb a late bottle just before nine, the door was wide open, and a mild case of havoc had been wrought in the feed room. They had knocked over a roll of wire, somehow gotten a bag of craisins down from a shelf that is over five feet off the floor, and eaten a few Nutter Butter Peanut Butter cookies.

Lucky, good planning, etc.

Whew.

Yep! it sure is good to be prepared. I have my grain in seal top containers stored in a broken dishwasher that I put under the tool bench. No way anyone is going to get into that. And it's handy because I can just roll out the rack and have access with out having to reach into the back

Gee Minelson, what goat folks come up with!

Yup, tis a good thing Rose to have been prepared!!What a relief eh?

Feed is stored in metal garbage cans with ax heads,window weights or bungee cords...During kidding season there have been times a doe has busted out of her stall, the first thing in the am greeted with jumping babies, a few bales of hay gotten into or an open bale of straw strewn all over the place and lots of poop but no one worse for the wear!
