Hay racks
Yesterday I added a second hay rack in my girls stall. Hopefully now all 7 girls can eat at the same time. My white does are very bossy and like to claim the whole feeder for themselves. Funny thing, my Saanen doe and her daughter (a Boer X Saanen) have sided up with my Boer doe against all the other colored does. Here's a pic of how it turned out.

Thanks! They were very easy to make. But man, were they heavy to carry and lift into place! Its really a two person job. But the girls are going to town munching on hay now.

NICE. I'm needing a hay rack in the buck pen. That would work.

Very nice job! I'm sure the colored girls are happier now too!

Very nice. I'm doing the same kind of thing. I bought a bunch of hog panels for cheap. So I won't worry about cutting them up. I need to get some time to do stuff now that it's cooled off.
