I'm trying to do cosmetic repair to a goat shed that has only a couple of years' life left. The goats eat the paint off the shed (any type of paint). I'm thinking about stuccoing it, but I don't know if I can just slap some stucco directly on the old plywood. I live in the middle of Arizona, where temps get to 120, if that makes a difference. Any thoughts? Again, I'm just looking to make the thing look slightly less unsightly/trashy until I am forced to tear it down.

It does buddy. The only thing you have to ad to the plywood is inexpensive chicken wire with a of few nails or screws so the stucco has something to hang on to when it's dry.

You have to put wire mesh on the plywood first. But if the goat eats paint, it will eat stucco. Try feeding the goat.

No! At the very least, you need to first attach chicken wire to it so that the stucco has something to adhere to.
On a house, you'd need to first attach felt, (a black tar paper material), to the siding to waterproof it, and then nail chicken wire over that before stuccoing.

No, it will fail. Put /nail a wire mesh for stucco or plaster on the wood for adherance.
