[Ag-eq] Goats

[Susan Roe]

Hi Jody,

Yes yes yes!  Unnutered goats really can reek because their oder is their 
musky scent marker to attract females and mark their teritory.  The males 
also will urinate on their beards to add to their stinkiness.  They can also 
be more agressive than a guilded male which is called a whether.  Homer is a 
whether and likes to be handled and will nearly knock you over while you are 
brushing him because he likes to lean on you or even lay his head back up 
across your chest or shoulder.  This is not so nice because he forgets he 
has 10 inch horns.  Billy goats are also normally housed away from other 
goats and need stronger pens and sometimes people have woven wire covering 
their outside pens to keep them in.
