Redtailgal,

Thank you and I did see your other post, I did call and left a message and I hope to get a goat from her.
Unfortunatly I'm afaird her prices might be to much for me as I am on a budget. So I just thought I would post here and see if who all was in my area! And get to know some other people.

Its nice to meet you, where abouts in NC are you located?

Yeah I don't trust craigslist, my neighbor got 3 dozen hatching eggs from this guy, he said they were mutt chicken and she paid a dollar an egg and not a single one developed and the guy just disappeared!
I know there are some good people on there but I'm still wary!

Isn't it expensive to bottle feed goats?
I always heard milk replacer cost like 50$ a bag and they go threw it fast?

You can feed regular whole milk to bottle fed goats. From what I have learned from this group, the whole milk is actually better for them and they scour less with it. Or if you know someone who can provide fresh goat milk that works even better. When we bottle fed our little buckling I just used whole milk from the store, it's much cheaper.

Wow ok thanks so much. And thanks for keeping an eye out.


And Thanks for the whole milk advice, sounds much cheap!
