I am thinking about taking the next step on our mini farm and getting another useful form of livestock. After doing a ton of research I have decided on Nigerian Dwarf Goats. They are smaller and easy to handle, they produce good milk, you only have to milk once a day, they kid well, and they are adorable! So far I have experience with Horses, Dogs, Cats, Chickens, and miniature donkeys.
I love the taste of goat milk and want to make soap, cheese, and butter from their milk as well. I will most likely look to purchase in the spring. I am looking at getting one Grown milker and two doelings to get a handle on things before I expand.
I would love any input from any experienced goat owners because there are some things that you just can't find in books or articles. Thanks!!
