Goats live 12-15 years.  Lawnmowers last probably 6-8 years.  Plus the maintenance.

 

My goats won’t escape.  
 

I’m also building them a beautiful shack.  

 

Somehow, it just feels weird to see the word “beautiful” right next to “shack”. 🤷‍♂️

 

Your goat deserves more from you! Like….a goat palace!

what are you doing to your lawnmower that it only lasts 6-8 years?  commercial use?

 

I've had my lawnmower (basic troy bilt rear bag push mower) since 2008.  The only thing I've ever done to it is add gas.  If I go through 4 gallons of gas in a year, that's something.

 

And it doesn't poop.

we should just call CPS.

but the lawnmower doesn't ***** all over the place, escape, require food, medical car, or eventually die.

 

All lawnmowers eventual die.

If the goat escapes that is owner issue not the goat.

And my grandma had goats and they crapped nowhere near where people went.

Goats are not for eating grass - that is what sheep are for.

Goats are usually used in woody areas which shrubs, vines, etc.

My grandma's goats used to eat patches of poison ivy like they were candy and neighbors would get her to clear out theirs. No idea what she got in trade.

 

How much poison ivy does your lawn mower chew up?

So, you are planning a goat-ominium complex?  Does zoning allow that? 

 

Let me know if you need help. I’m not very handy but I can come by and call 911 if you cut a finger off.

I'm going to widdle from one tree branch.

 

The craftsmen from the old country will appreciate your magnificent work! 

 

You could rent it out for other goat owners, like Chuck E. Cheese for goats on their birthdays! 

 

Count on me for your business manager. I have ideas!

I can bring onions, garlic and curry in case a goat falls and breaks its neck.

 

It is very commendable what you are doing.
