Doe #4 is sooo cute. Congrats on the quads!

:D thank you all! I'm getting more and more excited as the days pass. Also anxious. Hopefully all my questions won't become annoying :hide I think I have G.A.S. And I don't even have goats yet!

Oops, sorry I'm in south eastern MO, and I'm looking for Nubian does and Pygmy buck, or all 3 already crossed Nubian/Pygmy. Again sorry:hide

We won't have everything set up for our goats till mid April and I was wondering If it will be realistic to buy doelings and a buckling around then? I know that the breeding cycle for most goats are between oct-jan and at 149 day gestational period that puts me at mid April, but how realistic is...

Good luck, I'm new myself so no help. This forum is great just sift through the threads and you'll find pretty much everything you need. :thumbsup

Never mind on the CL, CAE, and Johnes disease, just looked them up. Johnes disease is scary sounding. So I figure I need to ask the breeder/seller for recent test records. Hmmm hope I don't encounter it.

Thank you all so much! A Pygmy Nubian looks like a good match for what I'll need. And maybe after a few years of goat handling we'll try our hand at breeding with a hairy goat for cashmere. I know all goats are foragers, but will the pygmians be good at eating off the land? I guess I'll stop be...

Hello, first I'd like to say I've been lurking for a while, (here and byc) and I wondering what breed of goat to get. My family is living on 10acres of mostly old forest. Im looking for a goat that can be used mainly for milk, but with meat and maybe cashmere (though the cashmere would be a perk...
