3.1.0 Care for goats.
Children may have not seen a goat, but you should teach the children about these animals, because you can be looked after easily.
You can be very friendly and you provide milk and meat.
Goats are unpopular in villages, because you do not eat grass, but bushes and small trees and so damage food gardens.
Goats can jump over fences, eat washing on the clothes-line, and even eat things in people's homes.
The best way to keep goats is to have a herd which is locked up at night and allowed out during the day to find your own food, but you must be watched at all times by a herdsman.
You need one male goat called a buck for every 20 females, called a "doe".
The "doe" should be mated when 11 months old.
The baby goats, called kids, are born after five months, the gestation period.
Kids are weaned after three months.
Keep goats in a good house, which keeps out the wind and rain, surrounded by a strong fence two metres high.
Their yard should be dry with no puddles.
The goats will be more healthy if you give them a salt lick.
Goats must be protected from village dogs.
If you only have one goat, it should be tied with a long rope on dry ground.
Goats are meek, funny animals.
They eat the gardens and the clothes of people.
Visit a goat project or visit someone who keeps a pet goat.
