@Southern by choice Ill have 2160 square feet to work with, and I was planning on just getting two at first, but Im most likely going to get four now. @frustratedearthmother I'm not sure, my AG teacher still hasn't given me any paper work on it yet, i'll have to find him in the morning before...

Thanks! I love how this picture came out, it's about a year old, can't tell cuz I can't see penny's tail. She's always good with pictures cuz she just glares at the camera or stares with a look on her face.

oh, shorty does look black! oops, sorry, and we only got 4 of them now, we got rid of the smaller red female who was left over from a litter until we found a home for her.

So, I saw that members were posting journals, and thought I'd join in with my one 'farm' animal if you could call my dog that lol! For starters, when I was a lot younger, my parents started breeding miniature dachshunds, and I grew up for the most part of my life wanting to do the same, but then...

It's more of a getting a loan to get the goats, I'm not real concerned on making money off the goats at the start, since I have a dog I breed that can help me out plenty.

haha!

Hmm? that looks nice! and I live in Missouri, not Montana.

yeah that would be pretty small, but now with most things out of the way, and an actual design, I can probably get started during winter break, or maybe before if we have enough time during the weekends and if I get the loan sometime soon.

derp, sorry I had to correct it and didn't remove the squared feet lol!

@frustratedearthmother I am looking for goat breeders and such on facebook in my area so I can go and see how everything works, haven't really got anything yet. @NH homesteader oh, ok, thanks!

Yep, can't understand anything from the articles...

Alright, an update, I got permission to start building, and I have about 72x30 square feet to work with, maybe more.

So, after talking about land with the owner, I got the permission to build and such, but now I need to get the money i'm planning on using towards the goats, and my parents and grandparents told me to find out how much profit can be earned since i'm going to take out a loan from an AG department.

It's good to meet you all!

@NH homesteader I'm not sure on the size, but the person who owns the land i'm planning on buying or renting from, should be coming over today so I can ask him all the details about the land. And for the number of goats, i'm not getting more then 3, most likely two does and wether, or just two...

Not that I know of @norseofcourse I think most have pigs, horses, dogs, and cows, or work on farms.

So, I'm lookin' for advice before I even start building anything from more experienced goat owners. I am planning on getting Nigerian dwarf goats, and I'm stumped on what to do about shelter. This year, so far, this year has been pretty hot and only started to get cold around Thanksgiving, and...

Hi! I'm new to the site, and found it by frantically searching for cheap goat projects for ideas for my upcoming farm. To get a feel for the questions im going to be asking and such(since im going to be asking a lot xD), I live in Missouri, in complete no where from all sides right next to a...
