Useful Gifts

Along with some very nice Christmas presents, I received two gifts that I requested. Both are to make things better for my 4 Nigerian Dwarf goats.  I've already blogged about the aluminum milking stand we ordered from http://www.birchridgefarm.com/goatstands.html.  I got the silly idea of opening it at the end of our Christmas gift exchange and confusing 5 year old Connor by saying that it was for him so his mother could trim his toenails.  Well, here is the video.. 




Honey Bunny getting her first pedi on the new milk stand.

 Then the next item I asked for was a hay manger.  I gave my son-in-law, Trinity, 3 pictures of hay feeders I found on the internet and told him to take the best features of each.  Wow, did he do a great job.  Here's the video of them wheeling it down the street from their house to mine.

They kept it a secret, so I was not videoing this.
The top opens and it will hold a bale of hay.




The girls and I have really enjoyed it.  Even Kennedy has tried it out.  I just hope her mother doesn't see her little LSU tiger eating goat pellets.
