  • The next exhibi thas been started in the Zoo, a Lego Goat enclosure of course. I'm going to take a more naturalistic approach to this exhibit with a rockface/cliff style terrain. Part 1 of progress so far!

    this is perfect for not only the new CMF series goat but also the goat in the new medieval town square!

    Love the snack shack & facilities behind the enclosure! Discretely tucked away from the front entrance yet totally accessible to main areas of traffic flow makes perfect sense. I’m really enjoying your work as you take particular care with logistics and practical issues as well as aesthetic design. Keep us the great work!

      Thank you so much, I spend a lot of my working day doing planning and visitor movements, so I can’t help but overthink this stuff and also try to make the best use of the space available! As the Lego Zoo grows.. I imagine I’ll probably have to be changing quite a bit to make space.. just like a real Zoo! Thanks for watching! 🙏🏻

    Don't worry about goats. As I was riding my Harley on the Needles Highway in South Dakota, there were mountain goats everywhere. I still can't fathom how they can climb these shear cliffs. A bird can barely land on the edge where these goats are at. Just wow....
    Also, thank you for spilling knowledge of zoos. The what's & what nots. I like it.

    • @ZooBricks

      Thank you! I know goats are super-daft! We used to have some really tall climbing structures at the Zoo where they destroyed the safety barriers at the very top, and proceeded to throw themselves off of - like 12 feet up. 🙄😅 thanks for watching 🙏🏻

    I'm always amazed by your lego work and ideas!
    When you first started describing it I thought you were going to do a shelter for goats in the back of the mockrock which would have been good too!
    I saw a video of someone making their own stickers for their lego build perhaps that would be good idea to try for signage around the zoo.
    I hope you make a soft play area with a ball pit that would look super cute.

    • @ZooBricks
      @ZooBricks  7 месяцев назад +1

      Yes - definitely got custom signage on the cards! A softplay? That’s something I hadn’t thought of to be fair.. I’ll have to make a proper sit-in cafe/softplay combo… 🤔

    • @katiegray7239

    Just use the standard plain doors for your loos... part no. 60616 - use the quarter circle tile for the handle as it allows you to put a handle on both sides and still close the door.
    Re food... Hot dots cheap to pick up, there's the burgers from the Scooby Doo series and the crystal/rock piece no. 30385 in yellow works well as chips.
    Also... have you seen the leaks for the Medieval Town Square? It's got a new goat in it - a grey one.

    • @ZooBricks
      @ZooBricks  6 месяцев назад +1

      I was digging around in my bulk inventory for ages and eventually found some doors! Great tip about the quarter circle, I might go swap them out! The medieval town square is very pretty.. I just wish there was more than one goat in it! Thanks for watching! The finished goat exhibit video is going up shortly :)

    We have a market and confectionary with goats living on the roof up the road from us. Not sure how they ensure it remains water tight as they have been there for ever and Ive never seen them do maintenance on it. The goats seem content. Great start, looking forward to part 2.

    • @ZooBricks
      @ZooBricks  7 месяцев назад

      That’s pretty cool, also worrying if theres ever any leaks 🤦🏼‍♀️! I bet thats super popular though. We have/had a cafe nearby that was called ‘Goats on the Roof’.

    Door #60616 on Bricklink might be a fitting choice for the Bathrooms, has many colors available too to mix it up for other bathrooms in the Zoo.
    Another option is Door #60797 pb03, a non-translucent variant of #60797

    What a lovely idea using the mock rock negative space for facilities and snacks! Keen detail on the ketchup and mustard dispensers. As an American I love your accent in general, but especially enjoyed hearing you repeatedly say "Mock rock", LOL (Perhaps you've said, but where are you/from where is your accent, anyway, if you don't mind sharing?) Goats may be low danger, and one gate suffices, but surely it would be latched at least right? Not just keeping them in because goats can't pull? You're just keeping it simple in Lego form, obviously. Uh, right?
    Do you have only white goats? Any of the OG goats with the brown spots? I'm just thinking your herd (flock?) will sadly look so similar, lacking variation. Officially, I only have white ones (five now!). No spotted Lego Goats for me. I do have some 3rd Party Printed (from eBay) Goats that look _just like_ the originals (and some other colors as well). So I cheated since I just couldn't justify ~$100 for one Lego animal. >shudder< I understand there's a gray goat coming out in a medieval village set in the near future. So there's that.
    Anyway, love watching you build and look forward to your zoo growing. As ever, happy building!

    • @ZooBricks
      @ZooBricks  6 месяцев назад +1

      I have 7 of the new goats, one OG goat who is a bit full of himself clearly. I'm eye-ing up the grey goat in the medieval town square... but thats a lot of investment just for one tiny goat! Will keep my eye on bricklink once the set has settled in a bit and see if any greys come up as a bit of variation would be great!
      A goat could totally open this gate... I do need to think of a way of stopping this - haha.
      Thanks so much for watching! The finished goat exhibit photo will be online this evening! :)
