My little boys.
« on: September 20, 2011, 18:21 »
As some of you may know, for my birthday this year (May) my OH bought me 2 male pygmy goats, we have called them Toby and Billy. Prior to getting the boys, OH made them a large run and a beautiful house. To cut a long story short, Billy managed to escape from the run, through a hole in the fence, Toby followed, and they played us up no end until we were able to stop their fun. We had previously let them out of the run, but they were either on leads or on long chains so that they didnt run away.
Well now, I let them out for hours on end to roam free, provided that the front gates are locked. Today, they just walked into the lounge to see what was on the telly, they pop into the kitchen to see what Im cooking, and they explore the barns, especially the one where their hay is stored. Im trying to train them to be extra good, but they are so gorgeous and give us so much pleasure.
