Gonna have some colorful kids.
True. I need to begin finding goat stories to post, so we can have more goat threads.
It wasn’t exactly the Wild West but it was close Tuesday when a small herd of goats fled their fenced enclosure and sent Sikeston Public Safety on a wild goose - make that goat - chase. The herd managed to make their way onto Highway 60 south of Sikeston and briefly interrupted traffic. It took the officers and employees of Potashnick Transportation to round-up the wayward goats. One report said the goats were headed to the Green Acres Sod Farm in an apparent bid to find greener pastures. Above, Gary Tatum, left and Walter Foster of PTI collect the final goat.
Goats could be seen all over the Leaburg Power Canal.
About six hundred goats were released to help clear brush from a two-mile area near Leaburg.
The goats will be at the Leaburg Power Canal for about two weeks munching on vegetation.
It is still an experimental project, but Lance Robertson, an EWEB spokesperson says so far it has been working out. "It's a lot less expensive then say clearing by hand or bringing in mowing equipment in and trying to do it that way."
This is the second year, the Eugene Water and Electric Board has used goats to clear brush.
EWEB officials say it is a non-chemical solution to protecting water quality.
This years goats came all the way from Grangeville, Idaho.

And we are much closer. So how much land do you have? There's money to be made out there.
I like her markings.
"Is nothing to be worried about comrade."
Not worried, marking "TIME".
I have a breeder at my breederville.com training her herd of yaks for packing.
Are Nubians the fainting goats?
No. Nubians are both dairy and meat goats, but primarily used for milk as they give a lovely very high fat milk which is ideal for cheese-making.
How do we know that you are not one of them? Denouncing such agents would be a perfect disguise for you.
"How do we know that you are not one of them? Denouncing such agents would be a perfect disguise for you.'
Really now are you not giving away trade secrets??? I will keep this in mind as I read post pro and con commies.
Makes perfect sense. :) Also Chechen rebels the most likely are Putin's agents - he tells them to commit terrorist act in order to justify fighting against them.
Wow, Lukashenko the Second Stalin! He would be proud to hear this.
