Thank you for the info! This is all new to me so I can use all he guidance I can get. I wish I knew one one close by so I can watch them milk the goats. YouTube is fine but I need hands on experience for some things! Same goes for sending chickens to freezer camp. I don't think I can do it but if someone showed me I would be willing to give it a shot. I was born a city girl but I'm a country girl at heart!
How does the milk compare to cows milk? Do you have to milk everyday? Any and all help appreciated!

I m also new to the goat thing, but am figuring it out as I go along, you are welcome to stumble along with me!

Anyone interested in buying goats can PM me, we are coming down the homestretch in their pregnancies and seeing signs of the impending labor. God willing, we'll have some babies soon!

Edited to add: Gooseygooseygan, I'm more than happy to share goat milk, if you can help me get it out of them!

Hello neighbor! Maybe we can start our own cool bird flock out here in Montgomery County!! Whatcha got?! lol

Ive got 7 13-16 week pullets: 1 black australorp, the rest are rhode island reds, either pure or mutts with americauna. And two barred rocks that may become one because that bird has been pissing me off!


Waiting to see how many roosters I have, other then the two I know are roos for sure before I get more birds.
Need any roosters? (;

I would love some goats but can't have any. Don't think I can hide them or convince them they are chickens lol

well East Hopewell township SUCK!!! My mom thought she could take a few of her hens. No. You have to have 5 acres to be allowed any kind of poultry. She would have to go infront of the zoning commitee and pay $500 just to see if they would consider a revision, and even if she does that they could say no. So the rest of her flock is available. 2 RIR, 1 Buff orp, 1 black aust, 1 Barred rock a wellsummer roo and a young Black copper maran roo. Would like to keep the wellsummer roo and hens together of possible. Guess I will post on craigslit.

Absolutely! Will do. Bring yer catcher's mitt. Or better yet, just keep keep my nerves in check. Read: fill wine glass when empty.

I know these girls are going to keep me on the edge of my seat. Cleaned their 'birthing suite' and put down fresh straw, they will probably hold out another week now.

Chad!! How goes it with the piggie?

Quote: wish I would of known this a few days ago,,,,I just ordered turkey eggs,,,we looked for something that we could breed off of and ended up going with the wishard line of standard bronze,,,I have 18 eggs coming, if it would be a good hatch and any one else is interested in breeding them let me know..will be adding sweetgrass next spring also.
I would be interested in swapping you some of my slates for some. I have a couple batches in now.

Quote: I have a 4x8 coop & 8x15 run with 3 very large nest boxes (1 of which they never use) for 2 roos & about 15 hens/pullets & 1 half grown meat turkey. I have perches everywhere to spread them out as much as possible at night & the coop gets opened every morning regardless of weather to allow them into the run. No problems at all, but I make sure they get outside as much as possible too.

I would love some goats but can't have any. Don't think I can hide them or convince them they are chickens lol

I need a couple goats. I have too many hills & banks with weeds that can't be reached with the mower or weedeater.
