My goats would get goofy and fall off of it. From the top. And then not have the sense to die right away but rather after I racked up a few thousand in vet bills.

Actually, if I remember right, that tower was pictured on the back of farm show magazine about a year ago. I was so jealous!

Hmmm...if I casually show this to my hubby, I'm sure he could somehow improve on the design and start construction as soon as the ground allows next spring. Hee Hee Hee!

I wonder how much poop there is in those rooms if no one goes up there and sweeps them out.

Mine would fall to the death or just break a few legs. I wonder if you could put rails up?
