Alcuria said...: They eat anything - a $5 bill that happened to fall out of my pocket, shrubs, flowers, bushes, bark off trees, papers when left too close to their reach, etc. I had one which liked to drink a small amount of beer out of a bowl, etc. We feed them old Christmas trees (being careful to remove all metal hooks) and in 2-3 days they strip *all* the bark and needles off the tree - looks pretty odd seeing a tree like that.

They are more properly classified as browsers like deer than grazers like sheep, but domestic goats are naturally curious, being this way even a a few days after birth. Smart as whips and respond to their name when called, can unlatch gates and the like.; 3/8/12, 6:46 PM
