um... I've got goats

I was speaking with another nutwrangler about one of her clients. She was working from home and was engaged in attempting to keep her dog from chasing the chickens.

She was not very successful.

Anyway, in the course of the conversation I got two good pieces of information about goats.

1. They really like having a jungle gym like thingy to climb around on. Be careful regarding placement of such a device, as it may aid and abet their escape. They spend a lot of time planning their escape.

2. Do not feed goats any member of the nightshade family. Make sure there is no wild nightshade in their reach. Potatoes and tomatoes are both members of the nightshade family. She learned that this is a bad thing after she had a goat die-off after using her goats to dispose of some leftover cooked potatoes.

I was surprised to learn that goats cannot actually eat everything. I mean, who hasn't seen the whole goat with a tin can image?
