These are quotes I have heard from (three different) professional goat farmers: 1. The minute they're born, they start looking for a way to die. 2. If you look at them cross-eyed, they die. 3. If the wind blows, they die. I'm glad to hear this from professionals who really understand the reality of raising goats, but it certainly doesn't help you feel any better when it happens to you :(
@@BriansPermacultureProject we had a hard lesson with our first goat. Shipping fever and ultimately ignorance on our part. By the time we got our act together the parasite load ended up taking her. We have two others now. Like having a bunch of mischievous teenagers around.
Sorry for the loss. Our goats are morons too.
