Brownie


Last week I was a proud goat owner for 24 hours

This is what I learned from owning a goat:
  • Goats are very social - whenever we were around Brownie he was very happy and quiet...
  • Goats are very Loud - when Brownie was left alone you could hear his bah's from two blocks away...a man a block away ran up to our house because he thought our goat was dying! Brownie was just displaying his vocal prowess.
  • Goats do not require as much sleep at night as humans - Brownie was loud and awake 40% of the night.
  • Goats drop poo pellets the size of marbles - they sounded like marbles too when they hit the concrete floor of our garage.

I miss Brownie but owning a goat did not work out very well because we lack spacious land to roam and poo, other goats to keep Brownie happy, and a shepherd...

I am still very fascinated by goats.
