I couldnīt believe it when I first saw it.
Do you make Goats Cheese. Should think its pretty time consuming, but it is lovely.

I would love to see the pictures of those goats!!! :lol:
These are actually meat goats, not dairy. We just sell them 'cause frankly, after helping them be born and sometimes bottle feeding them and such I could never eat one!!!!!!!

Love the pictures with your GD, way too cute. About 6 weeks ago we got into goats, 29 nannies and a billie. What fun. We ran electric wire inside the pasture barb wire fence. So far so good. Have been told that if water can go thru a fence, so can a goat! Ours are boar influence, boy are we learnin' about goats :!: DH says they are four legged bush hogs. Can't wait to have babies. :D

I couldnīt eat one that I had brought into the world or hand reared.
Its quite a delicacy here, but I have never tried it. think they mainly keep them for the milk and for making cheese.
I love the baby ones they are so cute.
