My hubby and I are talking about getting a few goats. The main reason for them is grass/shrub/briar control in one area of our yard. That said, I would like to try my hand at milking but wouldn't necessarily do it every year. I guess maybe we'd start with a pregnant doe and a couple other girls. What breed would you recommend. I'd like to avoid dwarfs as I've heard they are difficult to milk. I'm not interested in having a buck either. I know someone with goats who would 'loan' me a buck for a month or so if I wanted to milk again. Doesn't their muskiness make the does milk taste stronger?
