Preparing for goats

[A Watchman]

Goats? Good Lord.

I will stand with you in prayer!

Next to walking into a hovel filled with turbaned rag head sand people, . . . I can think of only one thing more disgustingly smelly: a goat habitat.

Best wishes, . . . enjoy your olfactory experiences of the next few weeks, . . . by summer, . . . they will be burned out.

May God bless,
Dwight

This type is more of a pet than anything. They dont really eat everything. They're not good for much but I'll tell you what, push comes to shove, I'll eat 'em.

Let us know how the milking goes.

Don't try to milk male goats. The goats will love it but it won't turn out well at all!

I hate goats. They are good on a spit tho. Loved the Gyros from the Greek place I used to go to in Germany.
Goat babies are adorable. Billy goats are disgusting and mean.
Have fun!

You are in the honeymoon period. Take full advantage of it!

Honeymoon smoneymoon! The Squatch can not be tamed. I do what I want when I want.

Please don't screenshot this post and show it to me in 10 years.

AWESOME PLAN Sas my boy!

Not to be a downer but I suspect you have coyotes and perhaps large predatory cats nearby? Get you a good plan to keep the goats safe.

I suspect walking outside on a beautiful sun kissed morning with the family to feed and milk the goats only to find their entrails been devoured by a bobcat or a couple of coyotes will not make for the perfect Hallmark moment...

Always good advice Slip but yes I do have it taken care of. They'll be sleeping in a predator proof barn at night and any time we are not at home. Other than that Mr. 357 will regulate if need be.

So is this a "Nursey" approved post?

Nigerian dwarf goats are a combination purpose goat. Milk and meat. They make good pets, especially if they were bottle babies. Run them on grass, hay, and water.
We're down to a dozen for the winter, but the billy is working on this year's production.
These are some of the young ones.




And chickens. You need chickens.
