My little sister has two almost three month old nubian wethers for 4-H projects. Every time I turn around she's out of town with my dad, visiting family. I've been stuck here....for 4 days now....feeding and caring for all the animals by myself while the rest of the family is out of town...

I plan to show (if all the stupid paperwork gets done in time.LOL) my little Nigerian Dwarf doeling at the county fair in a couple months. She'll be 4 months old then. It will be in the open dairy category, but I'm very curious HOW to show her? I've always been crazy busy at the fair, so all...

We have three goats--all are 2 months old. I have a Nigie doeling, and my sister has 2 nubian wethers. They are all on bottles, twice a day, and getting a leaf of alfalfa as well. My question is, being new to all this...WHEN is the best age to wean the Nigerian Dwarf, and the nubians? Should...

Yes, there's always a trick. And the tag part you just mentioned rung a bell--The lady I'm in contact with fron AZDA said that cuz my goat is a doe that I will have get her a specific "premise tag' as well. WT heck?! I'm not sure what exactly that is for certain, as conviently there's nothing on...

Ugh. I'm in Arizona. And the premise I.D s:duc is already mandatory, apparently. I applied for a seasonal pass for my market steer last year, and it was the same form and everything, NOTHING about "premise id'. This year...they're all over it. I talked to a livestock inspector who really was...

I just got a Nigerian Dwarf Goat doeling yesterday. Through a series of unfortunet timing, the breeder had to deliver a horse and so her mom delivered the goat to me, so I didn't get to ask all my questions! Maybe you folks who are experienced with goats can help? She's barely two months...

Thanks...That clarifies alot for me...The doeling is jsut a little thing...still on a bottle and almost two months old, so the breeder hasn't sent in her paperwork. In that case, do I get the paperwork, and send it in myself, with her sig. and dam's id# and sire id# and DOB and all that? Or does...

This probably sounds stupid...But...I've never had a cow you could ride, although at the end right before I sold him I could lay on my bull's back or sit on him while he was laying down. Anyways, I found a pic on the internet of people riding three texas longhorns. It was the funnies picture...

I have always wanted a goat. I've enrolled in Goat project in 4-H TWICE but had to drop out because...I couldn't get a goat :barnie :(. This year I signed up for steer (again) and knew with workin steer I wouldn't have time for a goat, so I didn't sign up for goat again. BUt my 10 year old...
