Goat Tractor
Couple hours and Mtn Man built a goat tractor!! Great use for the dog kennel that didn't get used all that much by the dogs.
Results: We moved them a few more times before dark and am fixin to head out to move them this morning. They are down by the creek eating the weeds that grow there. I suspect when they head for the pastures will be different story not moving so much. Eventually will have acres fenced off for the goats.....
But for now this really works well!

| Added the runner (where the 2x8 will sit) before he put it together |
 |
| using a hole bit for the opening where the rails will sit |
 |
| ta' da' |
 |
| Notice the angle cuts on the ends (sled part of the boards) so it will slide easy |
 |
| Bracket over the top of rail so it won't pop out |
 |
| added corners for bracing but doubles for shelves to hold water buckets(see below) |
 |
| Drilled holes for chain to pull the tractor |
 |
| And it's off for the first run.. notice we put tarps for shade on top |
 |
| They weren't sure what to think |
 |
| I walked beside them reassuring them |
 |
| parked them in some lush weeds... Happy Goats! |
But for now this really works well!
