Knew a friend who had a goat. He’d just chain it to a concrete block and let it chew grass and weeds all day - good size property. Want to clear some land? Move the concrete block.

P.S. If you also feed the goat pellets - yes there IS goat chow - do NOT stand between the goat and the food bowl !

Goats are great. Most people do not consider them as “pet” material but they are affectionate, intelligent and useful as well. If trained, they are better hiking companions and carry more (by percent of body weight) than llamas and are easier to keep. Some communities will let you keep them as pets and I think more people should look at them as an option. They do not smell bad if bathed regularly and can be house-kept to some extent. They do not overgraze like sheep or cattle and will naturally vary their diet when they can. As you can tell, I am a goat fan.
