Another dumb goat
« on: May 28, 2013, 10:27:16 pm »
My wife has been wanting to get a pygmy billy goat.  She wants it to have horns and a beard.  She has been bugging me about it all year.  She is a city girl who is slowly turning into a farmer.  I didn't think we needed another goat and I have been trying to talk her out of it.  We have my sons 4H goat for this year and my daughters from last year.  She got to attached to it to let it go to the market.  I kept telling the wife that we didn't need to be buying food for another dumb goat.  Well, tonight I get to work and I get a call from my sister.  She is next door at my parents house with my wife and kids.  Guess what comes walking out of the woods?  A pygmy billy goat with horns and a beard   ::)  My Dad and wife caught it and walked it to the pasture.  She is as happy as can be.  It has a collar on it.  They drove around the neighborhood asking if anyone had lost a goat.  No one is claiming it.  I told her I wish a new quad would come rolling out of the woods for me.  She has been texting me pictures of it all evening.  She named it Winston.

I didn't at first.  I knew my wife didn't go get it.  I thought maybe my sister brought it home for her.  After I talked to my kids I believed the story.  The dumb thing just walked out of the woods and into the yard.  What are the odds?

My longtime girlfriend wants a goat. And to tell the truth, I wouldn't mind either. But seeing as how we live in an apartment in the middle of  a city, its not happening. But we're hoping to own property of our own within a couple years, and a goat is probably in our future.

Good luck training a goat.  They don't seem very smart to me.  I swear my daughters goat is mentally challenged.  It kept getting out while I was at the Classic.  The fence was sagging on one side.  It wasn't jumping it, he would put his front legs over the fence and flop himself over it landing on his side.
