Here is where we have a difference of opinion. I think Nubians are SOOOO ugly! Their eyes are too far apart and that freaks me out!

I like the others posted though. I found a lady locally that will be give me a deal on new borns - as soon as they are weaned. Not sure how much yet.....

Hmm I never noticed that their eyes are far apart.... certainly not abnormally? Their ears are floppy... much better than no ears like the lamancha... now those freak me out! I've owned pigmy and nigerian dwarf... those are my favs... I'd be interested in a pygora too but no goats in my immediate future.

Did you see my answer in the house thread about horses? $$$$ in CA to feed.

Get a goamel!

If I could only have one breed, it would be La Manchas. Don't get me wrong, I love my Nubies too, but the La Manchas just have more personality.

Well yes the baby is adorable but the adults look funny to me... I guess I should like them since I lost an ear myself in a car accident.... but

I'm sure if I had one I'd love it... but I dont think I'd pay for one... is that better?

You will get as many opinions as there are people. The smaller goats are easy to handle. I've got nigi's and absolutely love them. All the personality and lots of colors. One of mine just gave me triplets at 4am this morning. Each time I go out I fall in love all over again. Nigerians are wonderful (as I'm sure all good-citizen goaties are)
