    Have you gotten used to letting them browse? I've found that if I tie up one then the other two stay close. ...but each day is different, they are getting more adventurous. I never let them browse off leash unattended, so while I'm working in the adjacent garden they brouse blackberries and reed...

    I saw in another thread a comment that indicated you need to post ten times before you can post pics. The tire thing sort of works but we've only tried it a few times so far. I'm just trying to get them intreroduced to the blackberries and get used to us catching them and leashing them. They...

    Welcome lavslady, I just love this site. I'm learning as I go, so far I've dealt with lost goats, hoof rot, feeding, fencing, catching them and tying them to a tire to eat some browse (blackberries). It's so much fun.

    Well, yes and no. He was only able to catch one, he happened upon them when mowing his fence road. I'm actually surprised he caught the one he did. He has a lot of acres so it's hard to just go out and get her, they were really wild when we got them. We all assumed coyotes got them but he said...

    New goat owner in the Pacific NW

    I have so many questions and there is so much info. Can anyone direct me to threads where I can learn about breeding and registering, also one of my girls has hoof problems, and where I can get affordable supplies (first aid, vaccines, etc) online or in Snohomish county Washington? I'd also like...

    Hi, I have three young Nubian cross goats. Their mom is Nubian not sure of sire breed. I'm new to all terminology of owning herd animals and breeding. My experience is from books and the past couple of months owning my girls. We bought two 4 month old females and I accidentally let them out of...
