Whee!

To encourage our little girls to eat their alfalfa, we've hung a hay net on our porch, high enough that they can't get tangled up on it. They are having a BLAST putting their front hooves on it and spinning it (and them) around and around. It's hilarious to watch. These goats are such characters!

And, it's working. They're eating their hay much better now!

If they can get their hooves on it, what is to stop a hoof from getting caught and a leg getting broke?
