Livinwright Farm's Journal - Our life with goats

[Ms. Research]

Too funny! I've been staring at this picture too trying to figure out how she did this.

I can say, after seeing this, it's definitely never boring when around animals.

Thanks for sharing that.

Of course all the interesting happenings are when I'm out of town for a week! I'm just glad she's okay And I'd still like to know HOW she got herself into that bucket......

So inquiring minds want to know, how difficult was it to remove the bucket???

Now, I could see my calf doing something stupid like that. He's the one that finds all kinds of trouble

RTG...your goats don't need ideas, they are weird enough.

LWF - How did you get that goat outta the bucket?

 

[Livinwright Farm]

Well, she wouldn't just let me get it off her, or catch her for that matter... you know how funny a goat wearing a bucket like that trying to run looks? She looked like a funny moving carousel piece
I grabbed a buckt and put some feed in it, goat shoved her face in the grain, and then I worked on working the handle down her back(pushing down on her back and trying to lift up and back on the handle), then I worked on getting her legs(one at a time) scrunched up as high as they would go and then into the bucket, then getting the handle past her hips was easy! Just a push on her rump and she stepped out. The hardest/longest part of it was working the bucket, handle and all, down towards her rump.

I had one get herself in the bucket like that once. I was amazed at how fast they can run with a bucket wrapped around them. I wound up cutting off the handle.
