Oranges?

[M.R. Lops]

That's interesting. We've never really fed our goats fruits before. They do like watermelon though. i also found a recipe online for "goat cookies" that they love. (just so you know, goat is not used in them, some people I've told thought there was goat in it). But, they're just cookies made with foods that are appetizing to goats. They look and feel disgusting but the goats love them.

My herd has full access to about 4 acres of an old orange grove. They will start eating on them around November when they are just starting to get ripe and will eat on them until they rot on the ground. If I have them in another pasture for a while they will run back to there favorite trees as soon as I let them in. They all love the peels just as much as the inner fruit. My groive is all natural with no fertilizer other then what the goats leave. When we moved here 2 years ago the grove was grown up so thick that you couldn't see through it hardly. After 2 years it almost looks like some one very carefully groomed the entire area.

Wow, I'll have to try giving our goats oranges. I'm sure they'll love them, we had a buck before that ate glass (our bad for not noticing the glass was there and picking it up ahead of time). Luckily it didn't harm him though.
