Mine won't eat milkweed! Its funny because I have a pasture filled with it and yet people are always staying, "you could not have that if you had goats, milkweed will kill them." Well milkweed will kill a sheep too but they seem smart enough not to eat them so its a non-issue.

Tell a welfare recipient they must work and they call their congressman. Tell a farmer he can no longer work and he commits suicide. No wonder 1/2% of the population feeds the other 99-1/2%!!

Drawbar...is milkweed the same thing as coffee weed. We lose a cow a year it seems like to coffee weed. We put up an electric fence last year and the wild hogs have taken over that part of the field and now its one big wallow with coffee weeds.

My big gelding with NOT eat carrots - go figure

Dogs will not eat any type of vegetable or fruit - raw or cooked

Pheasants do not like cracked corn, but will eat it if they have to - but they'll eat whole corn no problem

Muddy Run Farm -- clean floors are highly overrated

My goats have cleared out all the milkweed in the pasture.  Hasn't killed them yet.

Last year they wouldn't touch cockleburr.  This year, they ate it.  Go figure.
