LOL, last summer I finally fed the last of the frozen goat milk to the chickens. They absolutely loved it on hot summer days...

Goats are a trip - turn their nose up at the best leafy alfalfa hay and go stand on their hind legs and stretch as far as they could to get one more holly leaf (of all things) and if they get near a crape myrtle, it’s gone. I won’t even go into their affinity for strawberries...

Between the entertainment they provide and the milk, they are great animals... The last nubian doe we had was a great watchdog too - driving more than one person back into their cars. (she would rare up and try to butt intruders on the way down - believe me, she knew who belonged here and who didn’t.)
