I don’t understand

I have 3 goats - strictly pets and supposed to be for brush control. I have fenced areas for them - I’ve created a newly fenced area they can get into and out of from the original side - this new area is loaded with brush, bushes etc for them to eat as I need it cleared but would rather they do it then hack it down. However they will NOT go to the new area. I convince them with treats staying on that side etc, but they prefer the dirt lot they have eaten down already? Is it just a comfort thing they want to stay where they know? Give it time? Or are they just… not that smart?

How do I get them to be the weed eaters I need them to be? They are down this section it’s time to move sections! I didn’t fully change it I just made more area with extra fencing - they still have their huge shed water etc but I’d think they’d WANT to go to the green side?
