Good day and pics to show you.

We started the girls new house. We ended up spending around 150 in wood because we had the tin and an old soft shed frame. We got a late start and only got the roof totally done and caulk .Tomorrow side tin and then work on the inside. Here's a few photos for you guys.

This is the little buck we got fron Tin Mom. I just adore him.

Looks like your new shelter for the girls is going to be nice & plenty big enough too! I know that will be a big relief off your shoulders when you get it all done.

Cute pictures of everyone.

Looks as though you have lots of four-legged helpers!

We had a 21x11 soft side frame that the cover ripped off. That was the frame work. Then we use 2x4s to make it stronger. The metal is R panels we had. The inside will be insulated and wood covering that later on.

You guys are doing such a Great job! It's going to be so nice when it's done & the goats will Love even more than they do already! It looks so big in the pictures too but a goat shelter can never be too big, we've found that over the years here at our place.

I wish it was bigger but it will do for now. It will become either a baby house or chicken barn when we build the actual barn in a few years.
