Counterpoint: create a field of brambles for your goats to wander through when they get itchy so you don’t have to brush them.

Bonus: those brambles are blackberry bushes so you can wander through them and eat breakfast.

And gather goat fur to spin into cordage or make brushes from.

Won't the goats just eat the blackberry bushes?

I was literally about to reply to them

Yeah, immediately and voraciously

They're hired out in lots of places because of their appetite for things others won't eat. The blackberry has become invasive in parts and the thick growths of them can become impenetrable

Yeap, and they'll eat right through the "impenetrable" bushes like they're nothing, it's super impressive

This is one of mine that destroyed a couple of my berry bushes when they broke down my fence

What a goat! I assume they're responsible for the broken planter tray as well?

Also I didn't see the alt text until I replied. Do you have more pictures of your beasties?? I love goats!

That was actually a plate that got accidentally left out and yeah, that little shit is the one responsible for it

I have more pics over at https://pixelfed.social/gamermanh - though I don't remember to post nearly often enough. Which is a good reminder to do so now, actually.....
