Yay! *Happy Dance!* Time to go out and work with the goats now, and let the ducks out to roam. Maybe in another week or two I can hook her up to the cart.

I think it's great!

I had no idea so many people were still interested in cart goats.

Any body want to share pictures of their carts now?

Buster, my Saanan, RIP, pulled this cart. It is an easy entry mini horse cart. He was pretty good at it. Don't have any pictures of him pulling it though.

That's not a goat!

I like your cart though. Once I have my cart painted, hopefully this weekend, I will post a picture.

Sorry I am so late at showing you guys my finished cart. It has been painted now for about a month.

Each time I try to post pictures though it brings up a different picture than I want.

If you would still like to see pictures of my cart you can go to our website (listed below) and click on "Goats" at the top of the page. Hope you enjoy it and as soon as I get her hooked up to it, in about another week or so, I will take and post more pictures; and hopefully they will work!

ok now everyone has me wondering about harness goats since my space is a little small for a mini donkey or horse. what breeds would work to pull a 130lb person plus a cart? nubians are my favorite but are they good cart goats or are maybe boers better?

Any breed will work, you just want a strong and well built goat. A goat can pull up to one and a half times its body weight. Mine is a Boer mix and she should be just fine pulling me (115 lbs) and my 40 lb cart.

On another note, I finally got Moswen hooked up to her cart yesterday. Hope you enjoy all of the pictures!
