Most places that I frequent consider me to be a senior citizen, but not here.  At age 71, I feel quite an infant compared to some of our members.  On a recent post, I observed ages of 126 and 2013, which gives me quite a few more years of milling before I qualify as a senior here on the FF.  I do, however still enjoy visits from Santa and the tooth fairy, don't try to tell me that they are not real!

Yes there are some fictitious ages here on the FF but there are some of us that can't separate fact from fiction.   We are old and either don't know it or are proud of it.  smiley_old_guy

There is no conversion factor for Goats to Humans but as tt mentioned above, there is a stink factor.  :P   :o

I've noticed that 80 plus crowd sure gets along better than the 80 year olds of my childhood days. Used to be you were classed as a coffin dodger at about 55 and now it's like 85 plus. We must be eating better .....or drinking less???? Naw!!!!🤓🤓

Our forum goat is over 411 human years old by kbeits  calculator. I am surprised at that as I thought you might have to convert his age to dog years and then to human years but nope it just goes right over. ;D

Sure there is for normal goats but it doesn't apply to Sawmill Goats.
