Progress is being made, even with stomach bugs and sliced fingers.  

 Finally got a second hay manger built. I watched one of the Nubians get pulled away from the other one BY THE EAR by an oberhasli, and I don’t want them to be missing out on hay, especially being pregnant. 

  
So of course they all wanted at the new manger. But I got a proper mineral feeder set up to, so bonus?

  
Phoenix, chiana, and Ariel are the only ones to remember “oh yeah there is hay here too”. Toddlers I tell you. Toddlers. 

Joshua has reused the old stalls from the first barn to create the base walls for the milk room, and we also got the stall doors in place. We’ve decided to use a cattle panel to divide them. It allows the kidding does to see each other, and will eventually allow for one large baby pen for feeding time.
