Reason #1 You have instant bragging rights about your amazing life because you now own goats.
I mean, I don't normally like to brag, but I DO own goats, soooo??_.it's kind of hard not to. Oh, you have a brand new Lexus? I just bought a new goat. You're taking your whole family on a trip to Hawaii? My goat just ate like 20 mangos in like 10 minutes. Your pregnant with twins? My goat's pregnant with triplets and she's not getting an epidural.1

Reason #2 You now have the best conversation stopper/starter ever.
The best thing about owning a goat is that it helps you both ways conversation-wise. Allow me to share with you a possible conversation??_

CONVERSATION STARTER
(awkward silence with a fellow mom at the school drop off)
YOU: —Overcast weather today, isn't it? I slept in and almost forgot to feed my goats on time!??

CONVERSATION STOPPER
(checkout lady won't stop talking about every dang item she scans)
YOU: —I find those thermometers work best for checking my goat's rectal temps.??

Reason #3 Baby goats do parkour jumps at 3 days old.
I don't care who you are, when your baby goat starts doing parkour at only 3 days old, you freak out and record it and share it with everybody in the universe. Because, baby goats! And parkour!

Reason #4 Naming a goat is way more fun than naming your own kid.
Admit it, when it comes to naming your offspring, as much as you??d like to be adventurous and artistic, you know deep down that you can't screw with their name like that. Hence, the reason why people still name their kids —Matthew??.

When it comes to goats, however, there is LITERALLY no way you could screw up their name. You can go old school with a name like Nancy or Gerald, or you can go totally off the wall and name your goat Voldemort or Sir Charles III. It works either way.

Reason #5 Even when everything else is wrong in your life, you can still think, —Hey at least I still totes have ma?? goats.??
Imagine yourself homeless, but with a goat. Do you know how hard you??d rock that scenario? I can just see you now, drinking milk from your goat, snuggling with your goat on cold nights, fashioning a cart, training your goat how to pull it and going for a ride! I'm just saying, even if you lost everything, your goats would have your back.

We have awesome little wild goats here in the Outback. Western/ central NSW has a massive population, they are brindled brown and super smart.
