In Reply to: Get to know your goat world people! posted by Nat on October 21, 2001 at 16:26:52:
We have had goats for over 20 year off and on but there is always something to learn..we found out the hard way. Well, at least we have the people here to ask question. Guess we NEVER get these animals figured out and as times change it gets worse.
We have enjoyed our goats most of the time. We are from southern Minnesota and in the winter when baby's need to be bottle fed ever 3-4 hours, I wonder then if it is worth it when I go stumbling outside in my jammies in the freezing cold and snow. But then they start bucking and playing and they are sooo cute! One kinda forgets the troubles then. We have about 40 does and 20 young ones and they are a handful at times. We have cross does and breeding them to boer bucks. The cross makes for super strong baby's I think and wouldn't change it for anything. We just had triplets on the 4th of this month and mom didn't have enough milk so we are bottle feeding some to help out.
Well I have rambled long enough. I sure like this board and people on it are the nicest. Thanks to all. Lyman and Lila Craig
