Thanks ... The added bonus with wethers is that if you have heavy brush they have the height, weight and muscle to knock it down where does can't.

Auctions can be a good place to buy pet/grade goats. And you can get them VERY cheap that way. However, I would advise you to do three things. 1. Take someone with goat experience with you to check out any animal you consider. 2. Deworn, Vaccinate, and Quarentine the animal/s for at least 28 days before exposing them to children or any other animals you may have. And 3, at the end of the 28 days have a vet check them out to give them the "clean bill of health". After that you should be fine.

Auctions/Sale Barns aren't ALWAYS bad... but you do have to be cautious.
