Mine slide around until they get the hang of it, then they do fine. They learn how to manuever on them pretty fast. It hasn't hurt one yet.

I call it the, "Bambi on ice" phase of goat development.

It surely is a hoot.

Yeah, they get the hang of it eventually. And they are really a hoot to watch while they are trying to get their feet under them.

Done that a number of times at my house, they adjust. Easier to clean the floors too. If I feel bad for them I throw down an old blanket, but they usually don't stay there.

That's exactly it!! They also do a wonderful impression of what I would imagine popcorn kernels to look like inside the bag in the microwave!

Yes, Kate, there is no end to the fun. :D

We have 2 living rooms that are divided by a HUGE built in wall shapped like an I so when we have bottle babies in the house right before the bedtime bottle, just about my kids bedtimne the kids both human and goat nwould do this chase thing around the I frist the humans chase goat then goat chase humans it was awesome got everyone's energy level down for bedtime. I have added in a screened area so it is not all connected now but may have to change that before babies come!!!!!

I had one that I swore was part rabbit would hop around on all fours like you see in the cartoons. This year I will be getting lots of video for my webpages and such, cause none of my family and friends understand how FUN kid goats are!!!
