Initially  I collected the wheel barrow a spade and a brush. I then thoroughly removed any faeces and urine contaminated sawdust and emptied the waste into the wheel barrow witch I then disposed off in the muck heap I then went on to disinfect the hutch with anigine. I then replaced the bedding with clean sawdust. Once I had finished the deep clean I then proceeded to remove and clean the drinking bottles and food bowls I cleaned these then filled them with fresh food and water.

Firstly I got the walking lead from the shed and placed it round the goat. Gently tugging the goat to get it moving at first. Once the goat had set his pace I walked 3 laps around smallbridge with him. Once he had become a little tired and showed signs of less motivation I gave him a little treat (some hay) as a reward for behaving and to encourage more positive behaviour I took him back into his enclosure removed the lead. I then gave him a stroke and put the lead back were it belonged.

I then retrieved a grooming brush their fur whilst assessing their fur for any irregularities. I trimmed the rabbits nails using nail clippers ensuring I just clip the clear parts to avoid casing the rabbit harm and to be uncomfortable. Once i had finished I transported the rabbit back to its enclosure. Grooming is a preventative measure as it also helps identify and illness earlier on such as missing fur and mites or any possible abscesses that could be causing the rabbit pain.
