Cattle Panel Story
A good 10 or 15 yrs ago we built a large dog pen with welded wire & 4x4 posts.
Then we put 2x4s halfway up & turned it into a breeding pen.
Every once in awhile a wire will pop so it gets removed. Today I found three of them.
Back in July we helped take care of LFRJs critters. Before they left we went up for a dry run. They noticed us drooling over their pile of cattle panels. They assured us they were all counted, tagged, photograped, fingerprinted, registered with the FBI & microchipped. Or something to that effect.
We would have been satisfied with gas money as it was a huge blessing for us just to get out & help someone else.
But no, LFRJ shows up one day with a bunch of panels.
It wouldnt be very neighborly to refuse them, especially since they wrestled them onto their truck.
Thank you so much once again LFRJ!

You are a much nicer person than I am, and clearly a person anyone would be blessed to have as a neighbor.

Oh Im not so sure about that. It's pretty bad around here a few days after mucking. We get not so funny remarks from neighbors (none have goats) about the wonderful aroma...we just tell them the smell will be gone in a few days.
Ya'll know how that works.
Fortunatley we live in a legal area for livestock. Also noise ordinance exempting LGDs.
