We've had goat at a Mexican restaurant which is no longer in business (due to family health reasons, not because they were lacking in customers). It was surprisingly good and tender and tasty.

(You've got me hungry for tacos or burritos now, Rob... Sticking tongue out when it's take-out Thai for dinner (and I am not a big fan of Thai... unlike DH).)

While not iris seedlings, I started 36 more daylily seeds last night, some of which were pre-sprouted. I would have done more, but I was out of (in-the-house) 4" pots and potting soil. This afternoon I went out between the misty raindrops to fetch (and clean) more 4" pots, and another bag of potting soil from the shed. I got damp enough that I had to change shirts when I came back inside. Even Warp decided he didn't want to be out there in that, though by now he is going stir crazy. (We've had to keep a towel for him by the patio door, thrown on the back of one of the dining room chairs. His coat has been getting wet enough that we've had to towel him off every time he comes in on these rainy days, even if his paws *aren't* all dirty and muddy.)

Once it is time to collect iris seeds (if any), you all are going to have to school me on what the drill is... I have read conflicting posts as to whether or not to start the seeds asap, or wait until winter and plant them outside, or else stratify them in the fridge... (more seeds in the fridge... DH will just love that Hilarious! ).
Evaluating an iris seedling, hopefully for rebloom
