Lets talk about goats!

I always prefer people to ask me lots of questions when I'm selling or studding or doing whatever with my animals. To me it shows a sincere desire to learn and protect themselves and their own animals - to me an ideal person to do business with. In my opinion, if I was asking questions about buying or using an animal and someone didn't want to answer my questions, I would question what it was they could be hiding! The only thing I would have added to your email would be a thank you

I did thank her many times in the emails that followed

Thank you for reassuring me that all the questions I asked were ok and I wasn't a bother to her.
 
Oh I wasn't aware My asking all those questions was more trouble than its worth. From what I have read everywhere people say to ask many questions and I thought all of my questions sounded reasonable. And my not understanding the pedigree has nothing to do with it. I honestly asked to make sure that these people are knowledgeable breeders that keep track of their lines and that they are not just a random backyard breeder that hasn't kept track of any of their goats. I was also interested to see if their goats had any of the same lineage that my does have.

This woman responded to my ad and she was very nice answered ALL the questions I asked and offered even more info on her own she also sent me lots of pics. So to her I was not too much trouble but I thank you for your honesty in what you think as a breeder, I do understand where your coming from.

Being a beginner with goats I just want to make sure I do everything right, I didn't want to miss anything important and regret it later.

I told you I was old and grumpy. That's the reason I quit offering stud service. The money was nice but to me the aggravation just wasn't worth it. You are right of course. Asking lots of questions is a good idea. And you are very fortunate to have found a buck owner that has the time and patience to accommodate you.
