Coming from experience with goats, those creatures can eat anything cheesy

In the Old days to stop goats from eating plants they used to mix goat dung in a bucket of water and sprinkle it all over the Plants with broom

Goats are very stubborn animals and they eat the unimaginable. Look at the picture above, it's a real picture showing goats eating from a boiling pot on FIRE. Though I doubt if they so much eat potato leaves because I have seen it planted in communities with goat.
If you have to plant on the said piece of land be ready to spray your farm with cow or goat excreta to discourage them. You might also plant pepper because they don't eat pepper leaves provided humans will not steal your pepper. Shallom

I have a contrary opinion.
Seems I've seen rams eating foreign variety pepper leaves in a farm before.
We had to be chasing them away. Initially, they weren't eating it.

So, though it is inconclusive, I don't WANT YOU TO LOSE GUARD OH!

There are ways to kill such Goats without stressing yourself. Me hate it when people allow their animals feed on people's sweat.

If it's not Malu, it's Goats and they do so intentionally
