    I'm going to get Nygerian Dwarf goats after the first of the year. (DH finally gave in) If anyone knows of any good websites or forums I would appreciate it. Or if y'all have any info for me that would be great. I'm the kinda person that researches EVERYTHING before getting a new animal. I want to be prepared. I'm looking at maybe 2-3 females.

    I am about to get some Nigerian dwarf goats in the spring also. I have been studying everything about them. Some good sights I've found or been told about are Fias co farm. I don't know how to add the link. also goat talk. I also did a catalog search for goat supplies. Found a lot of info that way.
    Hope this helps.
    sorry I'm not more computer savvy.

    I have seven pygmy goats one thing to watch out for is they love chicken layer. Those little turkeys will do anything to get it. My bottle feed baby goat Hank follows me around like a dog. He makes a mad dash for the chicken feeder when I open the coop door every morning. He knows he doing wrong and I have to drag him out of the coop. DH says it is quite comical watching me every morning battling my goat. You will love them they make great pets.
