Pro-Goat Argument 5: Goat poop has great potential

Goat feces are dry, and do not smell. Unlike dog or cat feces, goat feces are safe to compost and can be used directly in the garden. Therefore, goats don't add to the municipal garbage stream as do most household pets.

Due to all the roughage they consume, goat droppings are full of plant material and make great compost. As an avid gardener, I would welcome an added source of manure for my garden! Why go to Home Depot and buy bagged manure shipped across the country when a backyard goat herd could provide you with "locally grown" manure?
