Mike, Perhaps you should leave the goat herding to Franklin. Keep them far away from your orchard. You won't believe how fast they can chew through a landscape. I generally hate goats, their queer eyes and their stinking urine-- the smell of which catches in your throat as you inhale their essence. I do admit, this one looks rather demure and sweet. ButI know better.

Hmmm,
I guess I’ve never smelled goat urine. It can’t possibly be as bad as the smell of hogs though. Franklin is a Hog farmer (his family makes some of the finest sausages in Ireland) and say’s it’s awful! I’ll ask him how the goats smell in comparison (he keeps two goats as pets). You’re right about keeping the goats away from the orchard; they’d definitely have to have their own field to graze, away from the trees.
