Demolition Goat Strikes Again

What is this you ask???It USED to be one side of the door to the goat house. That is, before Valentine got to it.

Who me???
You might recall this post about the new goat house. And the reason why we had to get a new house in the first place. Guess who?

We built a new door out of plywood this afternoon and reinforced the inside with metal 2 x 4s. When all this crazy rainy weather stops that we've been having I'll get out the red paint and give it a coat.

Valentine immediately started eyeing it up: And Lee gave her a little lecture about "why we can't have anything nice around here!" I can see the wheels turning in her head already. If she could talk, she'd be saying something like, "How many screws did you say you used in this thing? I'm pretty sure it wasn't enough."

New Goat House

Rather than spend all day on Saturday building a new house for Valentine and Gerty, I found a used shed for sale on Craigslist (and for a fraction of what the materials would have cost us to build one ourselves).

Not the most attractive looking thing...But a coat of paint does wonders! I had red paint left over from painting the chicken coop and bunny casa (wouldn't want our animals' houses not to match...)

We did have to reinforce the house with plywood on the inside "just in case" you-know-who decided to test the walls out...

So far, the house is still standing. Hopefully, it will stay that way. You never know, though, she looks like she is plotting away.

Stay tuned ...
