Yeah, freight wise it's manageable, it's the getting one into Canada that is the problem. I think a buck or wether would be easier than a doe, I looked it up a while ago and there are hoops to be jumped through. It's too bad because you'all have some pretty goaties and I would love to get my...

OK, that Imp is the prettiest goat I've ever seen!! I have ND's but only a few and nothing with colouring like that. Let's figure out how to get a baby from her into Canada! When will you be breeding her? She's gorgeous.

I bought a subscription to their Animal Manager from HomesteadApps. Is only $15 for the year and works just fine.

And please, where did you get that weather vane?! It's so cool, I absolutely need one. Thanks.

My feed store does not have loose goat minerals. I'm in Nova Scotia. Any one know where I should be looking for them. I am driving to Montreal next month and can go through the States. What stores would have loose minerals? What brand would you all reccomend? Thanks.

I have a Pygora doe, never have done anything with her coat but brush and clip in the summer. Do you shear it off to use it for spinning, or brush? I have a spinning wheel and may try it this winter. Do you only take the fibre once a year? She is pretty raggedy come spring time, but I...

You can for sure get kids sired by each buck, I have "twins" from my doe who are very definitely sired by two different bucks. She ran with a Nubian and a ND and the kids are one of each.

Here is a picture of one of my goats, her dam is a Pygora, her sire a Nubian. Does this make her a Kinder, or is it strictly a Pygmy sire with a Nubian dam? The first is of her as a baby, then from last week. She is a year old this week. My, the time goes by quickly.

That sure looks like anytime to me!

I know someone who mixes a bit of Dawn dish detergent, some pickling vinigar and some water, then uses it as a spray on her cows, she says it works. I'm going to give it a try.

Spectacular!! Congratulations!!

DH thinks I am absolutely insane for wanting to bring rocks in for the goats. We just recently moved from the Eastern Shore of NS where you can't put a shovel in the ground without dealing with rocks, and have to bring in soil to our new place in the Annapolis Valley where we dug dozens of post...

WOW, have just read through all these posts, and aren't folk strange? I have never been to a show, don't know any one who shows, have really only just started with goats, got my first ones a year ago so have no experience with this kind of thing. RTG, your response letter was great, very...

The part I have trouble with, and I've had so many pets over the years, mostly cats but now have goats and dogs, is knowing where the line is, sure you can say, ok, this amount of $ and no more, but what if just another round of antibiotics, or one more surgery would be the one? We just...

I tried to get some of the Rescue Fly traps and wouldn't you know it, Home Depot in Canada doesn't have them and Home Depot online doesn't offer them. Where do you get the Fly Predator things?

x2, good for you!

Precocious, it's what you sound like if you say Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious loud enough! ;-)

They're all gorgeous, are they all Pygmys?

My dog loves to get in the goat pen, cause he thinks goat poop is delicious! Yeeccchhhhh! The goats just keep moving to face him, but he really doesn't care about them. He's a Shepherd/Doberman mix and quite tall. (My goats are ND and Pygora)

Surely not a joke?! No one would be so cruel as to tell us something like that if it wasn't true?
