Here is Joseph putting the gate on the new goat pen. It is really supposed to be for Jaccapo, but because of all the nice grass in it and because the other goats have to get used to a new one, we have put Jizelle in it for now. Here is Jizelle in her new pen.
Then we put Myrah in the pen with Jizelle, since we actually got Jizeel to keep Myrah company. The problem was that they did not hit it off too well. Whether Myrah was being playfull or putting Jizelle into her "proper order" (goats have a pecking order), or if she actually didn't like her, I don't know-- but It made Jizelle scared, so we separated them. We will have to give them more time to get used to each other.
Other then that, Jizelle is getting along fine. She loves all us people, enjoys the company of the other goats (when they are on chains so she doesn't feel threatened), and is curious about the other animals and her new home.
I have been working on fence and yard stuff, while my son Joseph has been working on the home. (We have been working on this very old home for the past six years). This summer he is fixing up a family room. He started by taking out the old carpet and pulling the lath and plaster from the walls. (We put new windows in a few years ago.)
