Will they eat buckthorn, it is invasive here.

Probably, never had it in TN. They love roses and poison ivy.

My goats ate blackberry plants, pretty much eradicated them on our TN property.

blackberry plants must be an acquired taste

Thanks for the coffee @igorsMistress .

My goats would eat anything and everything. When I first moved here, the place had lots of brush, shrubs, etc...they would rear up on their hind legs to eat the live oak leaves that they could reach. After about 6 months the place look like it had been professionally landscaped.
About 4 ft. above the ground, and level, you could see all the way to the end of the property. Before, couldn't see 10 ft. They particularly liked green briars and some shrub that's native here.

Morning cafe!

Thanks for stopping by and providing the coffee @igorsMistress

Feels like there's a storm'a'blowin', so hopefully get some rain sometime today. We didn't get our rainwater collection hooked up and don't have enough hoses to get to the big garden. So I'm a little afraid my pea seeds have all dried up But I have hope...
Didn't get my tomatoes in yet, but I prepped the area and put on some new dirt. Want to let it settle a bit and I'll plant them tonight if it's not storming.

Much needed grocery shopping day, hope everyone has a good one

Morning! Coffee is much appreciated. The lamb is standing well and moving around and trying to figure out how to nurse off of mom. He is just so tiny that he has a hard time with the teats, but I did manage to get him on one for a few pulls so fingers crossed that by the end of the day, he will have it. He now definitely knows what a bottle is and I am hoping he is not lazy. I didn't have to sleep in the barn last night!
