Ummm... [There was a sound of things getting knocked over and the sound of animals moving about, making their usual noise. It sounded like chaos whatever was going on.]

Question... Does one know how to stop a goat from eating all the food? I've tried taking it off them, but they then eat something else and I've lost a good skirt that way already. I'm kind of running out of options.

[Another loud crash as Lenalee had gone to move.]

Please, let go of that. It might seem tasty, but we need it to last a while longer. [Crashes, stern words being told and bahing were all one could hear for at least two minute before she returned.]

The goat is trying to hit my hair. If it keeps trying to eat everything, I cannot say it will be staying in one piece, so please someone come take him away. [So close to getting angry enough that the goat will be getting kicked off the boat. If that it literally or not is another question.]

Keep it contained. Put it on a metal chain it can't eat through or build it a pen.

If it cannot behave itself it must be taught to do so. That, or it could be used for meat.

[bloodheels]

We already use him for milk, I don't think we could use him for meat. Would feel just wrong.

Though I guess I can go with the chain thing.... Once I find one of course.

[forthevillage]

... If you used it for milk then it's not a him.

If someone gives you the plans for an escape proof holding pen my crew is all ears. [There might be angry yelling at something called Yo-chan in the background]

voice

[bloodheels]

Having goat problems to? or another animal all together?

Re: voice

[wavemotiongunner]

It's some sort of armadillo. I'm not sure if it keeps getting out or the Captain just lets it out. [He wasn't sure who needed to be disciplined Motochika or Yo-Chan.]

[curries]

W-wow...! It sure seems like a lot of people are having trouble with pets lately!

Do you think maybe he's not getting enough to eat at mealtimes? Maybe you could stop on an island somewhere and let him munch on grass for a while. Or maybe keep him somewhere where there isn't anything he can possibly chew on. Like in an empty room or a crate or a corner of the deck or something...?

[Lenalee ponders those things for a moment, at the same time she is trying to get a few things out of the goats reach. So far it has worked at least.]

We feed him at least three times a day like the other animals. So I can't see how he's hungry, but I guess he might not be getting the right amount of nutrients he is suppose to be getting, maybe.

I guess taking him off the ship will help. It was a good suggestion, thanks.

[curries]

"Other animals"? Are you guys keeping a farm on your ship? All we had were some plants, but most of them kinda drowned a while ago...

Oh, sure! And well, it sounds like you're feeding him plenty. Maybe he's bored.

[feetarestrange]

All those problems just from the same creature?

voice;

[bloodheels]

From the goat? Yes, I think they are more mischievous than they let on. or just really, really hungry.

voice;

[feetarestrange]

Are they really hungry enough to eat your clothes? [She sounds more curious about this than anything else.]

[voice]

[fierybluebird]

Eat the goat instead?

[voice]

[bloodheels]

I really don't want to do that. We use this goat for milk after all.

[voice]

[fierybluebird]

Fair enough.

Are there any flavors it won't eat?

When my Pops' dog, Stefan, was teething I had to coat my Pops' boots in spices. Same with the main mast, eh.

voice

[allendsmeat]

Eat the goat.

[it seems like the best solution to him and goats are pretty tasty]

voice

[bloodheels]

We use the goat for milk. So we kind of don't want to eat it.

voice

[arcadiasailor]

Is it eating things while your trying to cook? [He's trying to figure out how to keep it out their galley, not easy since that was open space below deck.]

voice

[bloodheels]

Yes and also eating the things I cook when I'm not looking. It's quite a hassle to get him to not do that.

Re: voice

[arcadiasailor]

We might needed to do more remodeling to the kitchen then just getting a new stove.

voice;

[madeofswords]

Truly, I've reached the end of my patience with the blasted thing.

I'll make a proper pen for it.

voice;

[bloodheels]

Has it been givien you trouble as well then?

voice;

[madeofswords]

The bleating, Lenalee.

I'm surprised anyone gets any sleep on this boat.

voice

[obstinates]

Just feed it something really nasty so that it'll get sick and not want to eat the same thing anymore.

That usually works with me, y'know.

voice

[bloodheels]

But that sounds a little too mean to do. Plus we need it for milk, so I dn't think making it sick would be a very good idea.
