Barbado Goat?

[ksalvagno]

I've had alpacas for almost 14 years now. Being in Ohio, there were farms in my area that I originally bought from. Now Ohio has the largest number of alpaca farms in the country. So if you lived in Ohio, you would have no problems finding alpacas.

I'm pretty sure they're considered "hair" sheep and is a meat breed, but I'm not a sheep person. I had to laugh at the ad though.

They don't even have the same number of chromosomes for crying out loud!

I sure wouldn't want to buy anything from her. But on the other hand someone needs to rescue that sheep!

It is knd of scary for the little thing. If someone buys it thinking they have a goat and feed it like a goat it won't live very long. I'm only 2 hours from layfayette. Maybe I'll email her and see if she still has it. I'll be buying it , but like Emily said it will be more of a rescue! :/

I had to post this. After I emailed her, she changed the post. This is what it reads now. She added "sheep/goat whichever you prefer to call it". Would that be the same as if someone was selling a cat or a dog , "whichever you prefer to call it"?

Holy crap. Can you imagine having an animal and not knowing what kind of animal it is?!!! I'm not sure why I'm taking it so personally, but that makes me really ticked.

I think what bugs me is that, even though she was gently corrected she was like "whatever.....". It's quite laughable that she edited her add to show just how little she knows about the animal she's selling. And how well did she care for it? Poor goatie-lamb thing.

That poor sheep! What must it's life have been like so far to have such an owner that doesn't even care to know what she has!!

This is just awful! Someone save that baby!
