Thanx for tossing this out there. Been raising barrel horses for 7 years, got a pet goat. nw Fla.
Good pastures. Been thinking raising a goat or two for meat,
several neighbors do so to market. The arab emigre folks have created the market for goats. I’ve also been thinking
of a pig or two.
Uuum bacon.
I spent some years in Puerto Rico as an AF brat. Piglet or goat on the barbeque spit at the fish camp nearly every week
end. Us kids would compete for the pig ears, they were done first, then the tail. Missed it during the missle crisis.
My neighbor, a former zookeeper, bought a calf, bottle weened it, pastured it, and butchered it.
He had to grind the whole thing, with fatback, into hamburger for it to be edible. He couldn’t give away the steaks. We all had venison in the freezer.
If you’re going to eat lean eat bambi.
Thanx to freepers for the info, even the conflicting info.
That’s why I love FR. Every dang option is put forth.
