What could go wrong with not fixing them... Their bowls get filled up in the mornings, they can munch along all day. No leftovers by evening...no problems with mice, rats, chipmunks, squirrels, snakes...found a squirrel tail a few months ago. It's funny to watch the cats try to climb a tree and catch a squirrel......even funny to watch the climb the bird feeder pole...to late, it flew away...
Hey, just like big cities need lots of cops, I imagine goat town firewood takes a fair amount of patrolling too! Lots of places for the meeces to hide!
