Used geese for lawnmowing for
years. Had to put relatively low fences around flowerbeds and trees or
they would sit on the flowers and girdle the trees. Did not like broadleaf weeds
but mowed the grass just fine. Now trying a sheep. Mindy does not
seem inclined to eat the trees. We still have fences around the flower
beds and she will eat broadleaves as well and grasses. But the real reason I got Mindy was that
I wanted to try making sheep milk yogurt. It is supposed to be incredible.
Goat milk makes great cheese but not so great yogurt. And the goats
eat the trees and bushes first so they have to stay in the pasture area. Naomi "Few people are capable of

pest control and geese for weeding. It definitely cuts down on the need for
hand labor and turns bugs and weeds into meat and eggs. __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 4169 (20090619) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com |
