Hello All
I ran into a small problem today.
My boys will follow my truck up to the horse barn when I feed horses.
They Get their feed in camp first and I "sneek" off with truck.
Has worked ok so far.
This Morning I was delayed, I got a phone call and boys had finished their grain and were hanging out watching the truck.
So I put Pete on his tether, as usually if I need them to stay in camp Sam will "Normally" stay with him.
Any way I drove up to barn and got horse feed ready and here comes SAM by himself up the driveway.
I think ok fine he just is chasing the truck without Pete.
He will be ok as long as he is with me, and he was.
Well , shortly here comes Pete Galloping up the road with his tether dragging. Blatting his head off.
He comes up to Sam a young goat and buts him hard, as if to say "Take That for running off on me."
I took the tether off and he had chewed through 3/8" Dacron climbing rope. !!!!!
So they went and Kabitzed with the horses while I fed.
Time to go back to camp, I called them ,Started truck and headed back to camp after 30 seconds checked rear view mirror and they are both galloping to catch the truck.
CRAZY GOATS
Yes, they got a couple treats for coming back to camp.
Happy Trails
