Goats

My family and I raise goats. But, we have really crappy fencing so...... they get out and go the neighbors or the road. What we have to do is turn them out and watch them for like an hour. Sometimes they are absolutely evil and run from one place to another and won't come when you call them. There is 3 goats who are the leaders and will lead the rest of the goats. These three are the rottenest. We have about 24 goats and it can be really hard to keep up with them. We used to have to go and do this shepherd thing. But they have been behaving better recently and will actually go out to the back field (we have 42 acres and they have just recently gone exploring instead of hanging around the house).
Oh.......it can be truly miserable having goats. They get out of everything!!! I turned them out about a half hour ago and they SEEM to be behaving. I am sitting at the computer constantly glancing out the back door to see where they are.
