Frustrated that the goats had trampled down the grass between the driveway to the shed, my husband asked if I could train them to vary their route each time so that the grass could grow back. Instead of always taking the direct route, perhaps they could learn to sometimes take the long way around, or to use a different path for different times of day?
Sure, let me post a schedule on the fence...
One Saturday I noticed Mike driving the tractor back and forth to the creek, hauling several loads of rocks up to the yard. Goats, you see, absolutely
hate getting their hooves wet and muddy, and they
love climbing on rocks more than almost anything else.
Who's the smart one now?
