W A N T E D : FOUR YOUNG GOATS
The goats were not there when we checked them yesterday afternoon. They were not in their usual area bordered with some flimsy electrical strings. We went to the ends of the earth looking for them until it got dark(oh oh, there are coyotes in this part of the country). They'd probably be dead if our neighbors hadn't seen some really peculiar creatures in the runaway of their private airport. They tied the goats up in the back of a truck for the night. In the morning we went to get them. When we came back with the goats, we could not put them where they belong, so we left them with the cows. Tied.

MORE Chicks
Sorry I haven't written in a long time, I was busy with school and chores. Anyway, we got another batch of chickens some weeks ago. Some more broilers which put inside in the begining(like all the others) and them put them in the small chicken house† which is where they currently are. Since the old broilers used to be there, we had to move them into the coop that the first ones were in, and then we had to move those into a new one that my dad built.
We found some more snakes when we moved my chickens (the broilers) into the fenced area. The day after we did that my dad found three small copperheads in a spot. They didn't eat any chickens, so my dad flung them away. That was all in the end of march.
