I stepped outside the birthing barn this week to tend to the rest of the flock during this warm, dry weather. Time for Butch and Sundance, our Angora goats, to move to their summer quarters at the top of the hill. Since it’s quite a hike and the boys are still wearing their heavy winter coats, we all took a little ride.
Getting them into the Highlander took some bribery. Bananas were involved. Once on board, they seemed to
enjoy the ride. 
Surprisingly, getting them out of the car took some coaxing. Myopic and in dire need of shearing (next Monday), they were having trouble gauging the distance to the ground.
With some persuasion from Holly, the boys made the leap from the tailgate to their new paddock. Here they inspect their new digs.
Lambing updates coming soon!
