Where do you get the harness & cart? I've got a big alpine I've been thinking of breaking to pull.

(It would also tickle my funny bone to break my nigerians to harness. I could have a six-in-hand team. *grin*)

I am very interested in training for cart driving in the future. We have a fat little boer whether that would probably be good, although he's not just the brightest bulb in the box, but very friendly.

Also a nubian whether that is quite big.

Yes, I am in the need of the cart and set up!

I guess it will take the back burner as we can't really spend money everywheres now.

But I was thinking of keeping an Alpine wether if my doe has one. Or maybe even my queens wether! She passes the king/queen ness on them! One buckling this year would almost kill himself to lead the herd to food! I don't know how he learned it!
