Alaskan I happen to think Feta looks good with a beard - I'm guessing she is your best cheese producer

She so far has been my best goat... and she was free. She was a super scaredy cat... and her previous owners couldn't deal with her flighty ways.

We just worked with her, and over time she calmed right down. She is still a bit shy, but very sweet.

She has been in milk for OVER a year and still produces almost a gallon every day. She is also the easiest to milk. She will stand there patiently and doesn't dance or kick or whatnot.

Interestingly, when we first got her, having a lead rope attached to her collar at all times helped to calm her. Having 2, for the extra weight I guess, was even better. (and yeah, yeah, tangle hazzard etc... but we kept an eye out and nothing bad ever happened). We also made a "calm goat" and that helped a great deal too. The "calm goat" was a scarecrow.. but having the humanoid figure in her pasture really did help her calm down.

After some months we were able to remove the lead ropes, and I put a bell on her collar. The bell calmed her too.
The "calm goat" is long gone now. But she is just fine now, just a touch shy. Even lost the bell maybe 3 months back... I haven't replaced it and she is now fine without it.

mm good, mm good, mm good

That's sweet. I know very little about goats.
