One fine acre, thank you for the information! It is good to see there is still some Toggs left in the south.I'll have to check them out! Although I have no desire to own a buck, just borrow his services

southernby choice, thank you my current 2 Toggs I have are Storybrook farms, the other I had when I was a kid and my parents bought him for me, he was out of Alabama but no papers as he was a pet wether.

Greta is really pretty! Really looking forward to meeting some Toggs in person. Don't know if we'll go that route but its still fun to get to know more goat people.

I love the Togg's personality. They are usually friendly and pretty bossy, which I don't mind, makes them quiet characters. But the Toggs that I have seen at shows are far from being petite, they are quite big. Not as big as Saanens, but definitely bigger than my Alpines. My biggest does are the ones that have the most Togg in them.

At one point I was ready to switch breeds. I had heard about the milk being questionable but didn't really believe that. Then I got Jackie. I didn't even breed her to a Togg buck as I didn't want to increase the chance that her offspring would have yucky milk too. Not a flavor I want to introduce into a dairy.

All my does are fed 100% alfalfa with grain on the milk stand. She is the only one with off flavored milk. And it is worse at the beginning of her lactation.
