    By the bushel not so much... we do have farm stands but unfortunately they try to really drive up the price due to being in closer proximity to nyc and they really promote "farm fresh" the store bought stuff is fine but just fine lol

    beautiful goats.... I was on the fence on either Oberhasli or Toggenburgs and decided on Oberhasli just because a really reputable breeder had a doeling and buckling (wether) for sale in my area but in the future will be getting togs. I mean come on they are gorgeous

    Are they a rare breed or just oddly hard to find?

    A quick google search came up with some breeders here in the U.S. I didn't really dive that far but seems like there are some pages dedicated to the breed and the breeders but yeah not a ton it seems...
