- floatingatoll 8y agoHarvesting goat milk leaves you with two resources, goat milk and a goat. Harvesting mutton is more difficult, because you're now subtracting from your brush-eating (so, 'breating') stock. If you have too many goats, there are millions of acres of forest waiting to feed them and make more milk. If you harvest them instead of use them, you'll run out of goats.
- lamarpye 8y agoYou could harvest some of the goats for meat. With some being a number less than the natural rate of increase of said goats.
- jdavis703 8y agoI know someone in Berkeley who buys the old goats/sheep. He takes the choice cuts of meat for himself and feeds the rest to his dog.

- robocat 8y ago"In some parts of Asia, particularly India, Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, the word mutton is sometimes used to describe both goat and sheep meat, despite its more specific meaning, limited to the meat of adult sheep, in the UK, US, Australia and other English-speaking countries." A confusing use of the word on an international site.
