I raise my show goats in the Hutto FFA AG Barn. It's a public AG barn for all FFA/4-H kids. Only my current show goats for that year stay there. If they are not my current show goats they are either sold, go to slaughter, or go to Kathy at 6ARanch. Once I finish school I will be joining the ABGA to continue showing in other shows.
At the barn we have pens for all the goats. Each pen is about 7 feet by 10 feet (that is just a guess - I have never measured it). Each pen has either sand or regular top soil in it (depending on the owner of the pen). My pen has top soil at the moment but we are hoping to replace the ground with sand soon. Each pen has 1-4 goats/sheep/or pigs in them. We are building a wash rack as well so I'm pretty excited about that!
We are trying to build a feed stall for each of our goats. That way we can regulate how much each of them are eating. The shoots will be just big enough for one goat to go in and out and eat. I will update this page once we get something that works up.
At the barn we also have a large scale going up to 500 lbs, 4 grooming tables, 1 large shop dryer, a storage room, a bathroom, 2 hoses, 8 pens, and lots of stoarge space. There is a track in the back as well as large grassy areas. |
