A baby goat sucks on Theresa Howick's pinky recently at the Howick family farm north of Celina. Howick is one of a growing number of people locally and in Ohio raising meat goats for youths' 4-H projects and ethnic and religious populations in the United States.
Even before she opens the barn door, Theresa Howick can hear the baby goats inside calling to her.
Once she enters, all eyes are on her. A few of the babies that have escaped their enclosures trot up to her. She picks up one and it sucks her finger. [
