Pygmy Goats











Hello again! Today I thought you might like to see how the Pgymy Goats have grown in the last couple of months. They get so excited when Greg comes home from school, they can't wait to see him! They are really enjoying the big field now the weather is nicer and they love playing. The boys have put logs and tyres in the field and they have a large mound in the middle. They skip and jump around very playfully and you could watch them for hours, they are such fun. Pygmy goats make great pets, but you have to remember that they are herd animals and need company, so you should always keep at least two.
More Hill Top Tails tomorrow. Thank you for reading.

Butterfly Mania!









Welcome back to Hill Top. We have had a couple of days off, so apologies for not updating our blog, but we are back!
The weather has been so warm this weekend that we have had lots of butterflies here at Hill Top. Greg decided that he wanted to catch some of the butterflies, identify them and then release them. He filled a pop up cage with various greenery and some stones and then set out with his butterly net and book. He had great fun and caught two different species.
Later Greg discovered a green spider - if anyone knows what kind of spider this is please let us know.
Work continued on the woodland playground and tomorrow we will introduce you to Harold.
