Hi, I have been looking into getting a couple of Nigerian Dwarf does for a while now. I like their size and the amount of milk they produce for being so little. The problem is convincing my parents, mom in particular, to allow me to purchase these goats. We are running a bit short on money now, but really, how much can a 50 pound doe eat? I even saw some 1st cut hay on craigslist for $5 a bale. I realize that this probably isn't the stuff that they would be eating, but it's just a starting point. I need some advice from you guys on how to convince my mom to let me get these goats. I realize that they take a lot of committment(sp?), but that is no problem as I already have a variety of poultry and dogs that I take care of. I have to get up at 5:20 every morning anyway, so I reasoned "what's the big deal with getting up 20 minutes earlier to take care of the goats?"
Thanks for your input guys, I appreciate it.
