Youngest daughter got rid of that darn Kiko billy goat. Now she wants some pygmies to keep her two fainter cross does company. I hope she doesn't get in too big of a hurry to get another billy. Nasty smelly things! That last billy loved to come up to you and nibble on your fingers... all the while peeing all over your knees!
I'll let you know if I run across any fainters. Do you want does, billies or wethers?
Thanks Dee! Oh, I'm sure wethers are better for pets, but I'm not too picky. I just want a couple of cute, really friendly goats that can't climb & be too obnoxious, and will hopefully clear all the briars & brambles & poison ivy that's growing on over half of my acreage.
Here's a youtube video of a couple of young fainting billies for sale in Missouri ... I emailed the lady that I'd love to buy them, but she never emailed me back. They are so CUTE!
There's an auction in Prague that's held every month. They have bottle babies of various breeds. Sometimes they have fainters. They also have LOTS of chickens! The chickens cost more than I'm usually willing to pay - they are "exotic" breeds, and all I want is something that lays eggs. I'm perfectly happy with mutts. Anyhoo, just thought I'd mention the auction. It's called Ensign Livestock Auction. I don't go there much - they charge $5 admission per person, no matter what the age. They say it keeps people from bringing their kids and letting them run wild. I sure didn't see many kids!
These are my daughter's two girls, Margo and Annie.
Margo is half fainter and half nubian.
Annie is half fainter and half pygmy.
