That's all so interesting, Tom. I can see where it would be hard to turn a pet goat into food. Goats are so cute and cuddly I'm sure I would have physical contact, petting them and such, so there becomes more of an attachment. Chickens on the other hand, although they are cute and entertaining to watch, I don't cuddle them or anything like that so they best watch their P's and Q's or they could end up on the dinner table!
Well, maybe not Feisty, she is so sweet I want to pick her up and cuddle her...
Now Feisty, why are you making such a mess! Oh, never mind you little cutie you!
