Don't get any goats 
3 goats = 3 phantom pregnancy's 
Suki's never been milked before and Holi doesn't like being milked so Suz will be covered in bruises if she's return's from the goatshed at all tonight 
thats if she hasn't strung all 3 of them up first  |

| You mean, after all this waiting for kids, there ain't none? Is Suz gonna have goat for Xmas rather than turkey this year. Never a dull moment with animals is there? |

What ! You're going to keep it in the house? I'd still say a jersey as they are so friendly, but I doubt they are hardy enough for there.
You know what they say "A goat is just a poor man's cow!"
Good luck with whatever you decide.
Do they have animal auctions over there? |
