Isle of Wight housewife Iris Chilverton
designed some goat-sized bras to stop their udders falling victim
to prickly thorns and gorse bushes.
The innovative 64-year old got to work straight away to ease their predicament,turning tough,thorn-proof nylon into designer undies.
Now,the once-topless Tansy,Sorrel,Bracken and Amy can enjoy hours of pain-free grazing on their scrubland catwalk.
Iris said the practical garments lifted
the sensitive parts clear of the offending undergrowth and had
created quite a stir among her other animals,not least billy goat
Charlie.
She said "The nanny goats love wearing the bras and have no problem with them.
"But I'm not so sure about Charlie.He is never allowed to see the nannies with the bras on just in case he tries to nibble them.
"The goats,like humans,are all
different sizes,so the bras are all hand-made.
"So far,only one bra has been torn away by the gorse.Despite what people think,goats are actually very fussy eaters and do not eat everything in sight.
"And fortunately,none of them has been tempted to try to nibble the material so far!"
