Our landlord hasn't mowed our lawn in 5 or 6 weeks. It's getting pretty long. To combat this yard issue, the roommates and I are considering getting a goat and keeping it in our front yard and having it eat the grass and beer cans and any other unsightly attributes of our little house.
We can get this "kid" (goat jargon) for 25 bones: http://ksu.craigslist.org/grd/3015169076.html
QUESTIONS:
Are there any zoning issues here?
Does anybody have any tips for raising it?
If three are zoning issues, are there any other zone-friendly (reasonably priced) animals that can accomplish this???

Sounds like a good investment. Meat goats are basically like buying gold these days

I understand. You won't be living in this house forever though. So feed it a ton of grass and cash out when you're ready. win/win

it's completely illegal. the laws in this country regarding animals are ridiculous and immoral. try to fight for good.
-
If our neighbors can have chickens and a rough ridin' rooster, i'm sure you can have a goat.

D'oh! I'm a goat newbie. Which kind should I be looking for? Which kind is GOAT (:grin:) at eating grass?

being a baby aside, goats don't really like grass. they'll eat it if there's nothing else, but they are natural browsers.

Back in '05 there was a party on Halstead maybe, and the people that lived there had a goat. Although I barely know you, I think I can safely assume you are more equipped than they were to handle the animal

This went in a much more family friendly direction than I was expecting.

I have a hitching post in my backyard but no goat to hitch it to. If you get a goat, will throw in a hitching post for a bottle of goat milk or your daughters hand in marriage.

If you liked banter like that, then you would've LOVED chapter meetings led by the one and only BeanTownCat last year.

just get a fainting goat and mow your own grass, way better investment.

knew a guy that got a mini goat in college for some reason. It was pretty sweet except for the fact that he let it inside and went to the bathroom everywhere constantly.

Just dangle a bottle in front of it and hitch it to the lawn mower.

That and outrageous levels of butthurt when he almost got arrested because someone parked a stolen stadium police cart in the volleyball pit.

This thread is about the legality of our friend Dlew getting a goat and possibly solving his lawn growth problem. Let's not lose focus.
-
legal

legal
Yup

I think it's legal, but if your landlord has a "no pets" policy, he could fine or evict you for having the goat. I would just tell your landlord that you won't be paying rent until he gets off his ass and mows the lawn as he is contractually obligated to do.

If you don't name the goat, and he just hangs out eating the grass he isn't technically a "pet" under the legal definition.

There goes that idea. If you get a goat, you HAVE to name it. Sorry Dlew.

it also makes it harder to eat later if you name it.

Yup
false. that linebacker dude should never have backed down. he'd have cleaned the court with you retards.

Dlew, my bro has a few head of steers I'm sure he'll let us borrow. How good are you at mending fences?

it's pretty much legal

I will need a Supreme Court case cite or it's almost certainly legal.

Mike Tyson can have a pet tiger but you can't have a lawn goat? Shenanigans.

look at the two of you scrambling to apologize for your failed constitution. sorry boys, your country sucks and is a nazi.

TBL, you're a cop, right? Say you're driving down an MHK street, let's say Laramie for instance, would you have an issue if you saw a goat/sheep in some one's yard?

Used to be. In the past, I wouldn't have had a problem with it. Unless some guy thought the goat was his girlfriend. Seen that one. :sdeek: I haven't been able to find anywhere that says they're legal or illegal. Try calling City Hall and asking?

All signs point to legal. Green light dlew.

I can't wait for KU fans to see that some guy in Manhattan is looking for goats. They are going to make so many inappropriate jokes.

Think positively. At some point, one of those clever phog people will do a photoshop w/a goat and weird robert hanging in dlew's house's lawn which for some reason is situated next to BSFS. Then, Beems will see it. Boom, return of Beems to goEMAW.

Hello. I have two goats that keep getting loose from the pen that have unfortunatley become more of a nuscence then they're worth in smooth, delicious milk. They should fit the description of what your looking for, as they would make terrible pets. They are as ugly as a nebraska winter, if you know what I mean. LOL. If your interested in my goats, feel free to email me back or you can call me. I don't have a cell phone, but my home phone is REMOVED. I'll be making my way to junction city on thursday, so let me know if you want me goats.
Go Wildcats!

A day too late...seems like this would've been a pretty good opportunity to buy some especially hideous goats.

man, those goats sound perfect

If the goat thing doesn't work out, you could always spray your yard with some round up. Then you wouldn't need to "mow" it as often.
I bet your landlord would actually be relieved and knock some off next month's rent or something.

Yeah, tailor made goats.
