I thought it was high also. when I told her what I had. She said she would take it all for trade on the goat. I am gonna cancel with her. I also have to drive 45 mins there and back to meet her.

Ok... time to do your home work..... Breed does matter... you want a milking breed or a combinaiton milk breed.. While you can milk a meat goat such a pygmy..you will need small hands to be able to grip her and they don't produce as much milk.. Nigerians are pretty good milkers but in my opinion not as good as say... an Alpine, Nubian... etc. Now with that being said.. It is NO fun living with a Billy ...... Honestly.... they stink.... pee on their faces.... then proceed to blow snot all over you when you have a doe in season... YUCK It is better for me... just to pay for a service rather than keep an intact Billy. Just thought I would share :)

Thanks so much for sharing. Me and hubby were thinking the same thing about the urine. That is why I want a female, I think I could do the same thing and just get here serviced so she milks.

Oh what do you pay for the stud service if you don't mind me asking.

Also... if you have a Billy to close to the milkers, their milk gets a foul taste of "billy goat stink". SERIOUS !

Ewwww....... I wouldn't like that. I have been researching on how to parturize the goats milk and looks/Seems really easy.

Not only do I want to milk it but also it will make an excellent pasture buddy for our little mini horse. I would hate to get a billy goat and have it trying to get on the mini.

So speaking of goats, here are a couple of pictures of our young girls. They are 8 weeks now. We had two does give us two sets of girls each, yeah!!



 
So, is anyone interested in doing a side swap for diapers? I have FCBM eggs and jumbo, tibetian/tuxedo and tam quail eggs, a few showgirl eggs ( probaly not a full swap but i cold add em) Alpaca yarn I got from an egg swap, or something else. Not sure if anyone here makes diapers, but checking here first. Iggy needs his sperm count reduced!
