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.

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...
