Hurray for Goats! These creatures come in a wide variety of spiecies from the domestic farm goat to the wild goats of asia. Maybe I’m a bit strange, but I’ve always been a bit fascinated with them. Tell me what you think. Experiences, opinions, fun facts and other stuff can all find a place here.
I got to pet a baby goat once. Have you ever drank goats milk?
Nope. wonder what it tastes like.
I've had goat's cheese. It's very strong. I personally can't stand them. They're little and mean and they eat everything.
I think goats are cute. lol don't know why but I do. of course, I love animals so it isn't entirely surprising. lol Often times they used to put a goat in a stall with a race horse to keep them calm. for some reason horses like goats and they are a relaxing influence on them when in a high stress environment. That is actually where the phrase get your goat comes from. An racing opponent would come in and steal the goat from the horses stall. The horse would then get all fired up and would not race well the next day.
hehehe to post four , read that back, and it looks like you say the goat's cheese eats everything! roflmao! Now back to the subject at paw, sorry, hand, or should that be hoof? well *smokey bear picks himself up off the floor after almost killing himself laughing at the immage of cheese eating everything,*, well, the goats I have met have been of mixed character, but yes, one ate everything in sight. hehehe he was a real pest.
Wow! So many good responses from all of you! Hmmm. Where to start.
Bella Cullen, mistress Naiara, nope. I haven’t had goat’s milk either, nor would I want to. It seems, hmmmm, wrong somehow. Who knows? Maybe I was a goat in a past life.
Sunshine and Rain, thanks for your opinion. They can be a bit testy at times from what I’ve seen, but I don’t imagine it’s easy having people poking their hands in at you all the time either. Lol
Pebbles, awesome! I love fun facts! I had no idea where that came from, but that makes sense. Horses are such intuitive creatures.
Smokey Bear, *Trevyn Wolf scratches his head at the strange image of predatory cheese* I wouldn’t have noticed that. Lol Yes, they are definitely of mixed character as so many creatures in this big world.
Keep on posting, everyone. Talk soon.
