I want a pair of whethers I think so I don't need to worry about that. I know they don't like grass, they prefer to browse. The next door goat did a great job, we never had to clear that side of the fence while he was there. I still have a lot more research to do before I decide, and a ton of fence to reinforce first too.

One of these days though....

I want to milk them. What a good one for milking? (This is way in the future.)

For little ones Nigerians. Bigger goats nubians, saneens, and alpines are all I can think of right now.

Ask your mailman. That's how I found the rooster I was hearing. Mailmen know EVERYTHING!

Ooh, I didn't even think about that. Our mailman is so sweet. When he brought my quail eggs to the door he had them cradled in his arm like babies and said he hoped no one was too rough on them and that they made it ok.

Wish they were all like that, shipped eggs would be so much easier!

That's awesome!

Thanks!

I would rather hatch eggs to start a flock insted of buying chicks. It makes me feel closer to the birds, and then the birds are closer to me.
