Breeding Pen…

In preparation for the breeding season, we built a shelter for the breeding pen. The pen itself is about 20ft wide by 40ft long. The Shelter is 4ft by 8ft, and insulated with straw. The goats will be moved into the pen as the does go into heat - with the appropriate buck, left overnight.
