Clover came with her good buddy, Petunia, to live at Blueprint Farm in the summer of 2002. Goats are really smart animals and learned to come when called. Goats also are not "grazers" but browsers. They prefer to pick around on weeds, leaves, pine needles, bark, and yes, flowers over just eating grass. Other than eating my freshly planted violets, it was handy to have them around to eat the weeds that the horses won't eat. Sadly, Clover died suddenly just a few weeks ago when the weather was really cold. I found her lying in her stall. Poor little Petunia was just lost. She's better now. She has a couple new friends.
