Hello All
The Truck Chasing Goats Story continues.
Just with a little different "Twist" on it.
The "Twist" being a 2 ton mooring line and a 3 inch load binder from my equipment hauling days.
YEP, I put the boy's out on a high tie today for the first time, all 4 at one time.
Been planning this training situation for a while, but the "BOY'S" went walkabout with out me this morning.
Had to go out and catch them, at the neighbors, I am sure it was the bucklings that were the ring leaders.
So they all got a surprize when we got back to BC1. They learned about being tied to a High Line.
As I described my high line set up above that I have had up to 4 saddle horses hooked to. I figured 4 goats if they had a fit it would hold them. Left them enough slack to lay down and browse around but not get to messing with each other. Tied by collars.
Sat in the shade with a cold beverage listening to Prepper Radio while watching the goat boy's
Darn Goat's did not provide any kind of entertainment.
It is a hard job training goats to tie up as preparation for a good camping trip.
I will admit Pete and Sam have been tied up before. Blizzard and Fuzzy I know have not been tied before.
So I had the advantage of two good roll models for the Brat Kids to look to. Well semi-good roll models.

Now that they are being "Independent" they will spend more time on a rope.

BTY: I have been "Informed " I need to buy more chairs for the deck from the Goat Union.
I cut a deal with the Goat Union, Told them send another "Hit Goat here" Freezer Camp still has room."
Happy Trails
