    No, no you do not. I grew up on a farm with goats. They are the worst. They will destroy everything you own.

    The 2 areas where I would put them have gat wire fences around part I would have to build more fences but at least they would eventually eat all the underbrush Right now I am cutting a 30ft fire break in hopes that we will have a range fire next year.

    They're selective in what they eat. You might be disappointed in what they eat and what they leave behind.

    Yeah they will leave the cactus behind for that you need camels. A neighbor fenced off a 5 acre area that was nothing but mesquite and weeds about 3 years back then turned her 10 goats and 3 alpacas in on it now it looks like a park except for the cactus.
    I still prefer a range fire though.
