Well, as we started thinking about all the bouncing babies that are due to arrive in March - we realized that we needed to reorganize the animals a little bit to fit everyone in the barn. Okay - no problem. Wait - we didn't have enough room for all of them to eat! Minor oversight! So, we decided that we needed to make a new feeder.
This is a "keyhole" feeder, very similar to those that we built a few years ago. The difference is - the feeders we built previously let 5 goats eat at one time, only on one side. This feeder is slightly wider and allows for 5 goats to eat on each side.
The project went rather smoothly, and after about 3 hours on Saturday and 2 hours on Sunday - it's finished! We are going to wait until we clean the barn to install it. But, we think it turned out quite nice and should definately do the job. Chris even tested it out!
