Welcome to BYC Grace!

What kind of goats are you looking to get?

I’m looking forward to letting my chickens free range but right now I have them on lockdown because I don’t like easter egg hunts. I’m hoping another week in the coop & run will teach them that’s where they need to leave me some eggs

Thank you!
I'm getting Nigerian Dwarfs. I'm hoping to start a dairy herd.
That situation sounds very familiar. Good luck to you!

I heard Nigerian Dwarf goat milk is good but boy are their teets tiny!! I had one Nubian goat and she was the perfect size to be milked.

I went through a chicken math with goats once. Didn’t work out so I have since downsized and now I only have 8 goats and majority of them are males (wethers) to prevent my heard from multiplying too fast.

Haha yes! Thier teats are tiny but I've always preferred the smaller breeds (for some unknown reason).
