Odoriferous Myth Debunked by Goat Keepers in Michigan
The Feuerbachers of North Ann Arbor street raise nine goats and sell their milk while debunking the idea that goats smell. Their herd includes white Saanen, a Nubian-Saanen mix, and a black Alpine. Goats are fed clean dishes, are gentle, and all have been tested for undulant fever. Deliveries go to nearby towns, with four quarts daily per goat and high yearly yields.
