Nick, geronl has a thread started about a transgender highschool just two up from your goat thread.

We have to keep after the hispanics who try to raise chickens in their garage lest the moslems come up with the idea of raising goats as well.

Now, about volcanic goat cheese, finally found it. The EU drove the makers of volcanic goat cheese OUT of Europe and now they are in California!

A friend of mine in Sunday school raises goats to sell to the local muzzies who run the 7-11’s etc.

In my teen years, my dad had trouble getting any one of his six children to mow the yard, even with a riding mower.

When we got home from school one day, my dad announced to us that he had given up on us and bought himself a 20’ rotary mower....it was a goat on a 10’ chain.

And it ate EVERYTHING within reach, except for the grass. It even ate the seat of the riding lawn mower.

Fond memories....and then there is my mom with her pet chicken Freddy the Footpecker, which she feeds cooked chicken.

I am not making this stuff up.

You've got to be kidding.

We raised Saanens for 20+ years. Lots of work but loads of fresh milk for drinking, yogurt, kefir, butter, and many different kinds of hard and soft cheeses. We still have one 8 year old doe left, no longer breeding or milking. If you have little ones, especially more than a few,I highly recommend it.

“Got My Goat” years ago.

Had a pet goat once, many years ago when I was a kid and lived in the Philippines. It ate every thing in the yard, every bush, every shrub.

One day we found it dead. The only thing we could figure was that a cobra had bitten it. I mean, there was no plant life left, let alone any poisonous plants.

How do you talk to a little baby goat?

Girl friends eat less.

An important tip about raising goats: If keeping them in a an unused bedroom try to make sure it has a door to the outside so the goats don’t have to use a window to enter and exit.

Having a window is extremely handy for tossing hay into the room and removing waste. It is suggested that the goats not be given access to the rest of the house as they can be very possessive and territorial toward the furniture but this is a personal decision.

The idea took hold of me rather suddenly while I was...

Yeah; it'll do that.

All my wife wanted was a couple of ducks!

Do your homework: If you are serious about keeping goats, study up.

Yup; I learned AFTER they got home!

Quite a few, shall we say, 'interesting' things learned really quickly!

YEAH ! Everybody needs a goat .

Seriously, you should check with someone who keeps goats.
Goats require a de-wormer every month that also takes care of ticks and fleas and flies, and it's not cheap.
Check with a veterinarian before you buy a goat, for their health needs.
