I always questioned whether the whole "goats go for high ground" thing was a myth... but Marlo definitely prefers to be high sentry. She's already climbed me (multiple times), but now, she's making the assent up Mount Sofa whenever possible. Not just the seat - she's climbing the back, trying to get as high as possible.
She also has a definite preference for her dad - Mom and I were doing the morning feeding while Roger was in the shower, and the minute he got out and came into the room, she was right there under his feet (trying to climb up his legs, of course.)
She's a bit unhappy about us putting her in the corral with the high sides and lid, but it's for her own safety. Yesterday, she was over trying to make friends with the cow and her calf, and the calf was *not* having it. She almost got herself trampled before Roger got her back. She may be growing fast, but the calf still has a few (hundred) pounds on her.
