[QUOTE="Keren, post: 495732, member: 3195"] Yay for the Aussie thread coming back . . . I've missed it! Welcome to the boards Jack (even if you are involved with the dreaded Angus :lol: ) Its raining here, not enough to be significant but enough to piss the goats off lol. Weaned them all yesterday so there's a LOT of cryin going on, especially since its now stormy. I found my poor pet wether hiding from the rain and thunder by huddling in the corner against the fence :roll: (the fence is hingejoint). Yeah, cos that was a good shelter spot. He must have been grazing down there when the storm hit, and he's petrified of loud noises, and reckoned that was the only shelter. You know, I tell people all the time goats are smart, but sometimes they make me wonder . . . along the same lines I moved my does to a new paddock in which the water source is a creek, stupid buggers couldnt figure out that you can drink from a creek, nearly died of dehydration the first couple of days till I figured it out and got them a trough (the creek often runs dry so I would have had to get a trough for that paddock eventually, anyway). Still, I suppose it will help dry them off, being deprived of water :lol: Been so, so, so, so busy! Trying to get everything ready for Henty show (9th) and then Canberra. Scared the crap outa me when I realised how close Canberra is. Been [u]really[/u] hot here, up in the forties. Thanks to this storm, its actually nice and cool now. Oh, I got a new electric fence tester. Its name is Keren :lol: Ouch that hurt! Sent my two poddy boys off to my boss's place because we finally realised whats behind all the bad behaviour. I weaned them off the bottle but not off me. All the destructive behaviour, and the jumping, was to get to me or get me to come out to them. So I sent them off for a holiday, and in exchange brought three back to my place that needed 'humanizing'. But you know, I just cant win, cos I get them home and a few minutes later, I find out one of them can jump just as well as my boys!! :frowns: But the electric fence fixed them. Well, think thats all I have to say (said a lot more than I thought I would actually). Hope everyone is getting lots of rain, and growing lots of grass. Cya [/QUOTE]
