Goats next door
I looked on craigslist today for my bil/sil they are thinking about getting a pair of goats and found some in my area. So I called, they had nubian and nubian crosses...talked for a bit and then got directions to her house. They live directly behind me!! Funny didnt know they had goats, I knew they had horses cause I can hear them. So now I really want to go see them! And maybe make a new goat friend!


oh and on the way home from wintrwolfs I saw two goats farms, and another one I passed you just cant see if from the road but I know it is there, and we live fairly close.

Yay for goats!

I had someone visiting last weekend and this morning they were shocked that I had 60 goats on the mountain. Guess I need more bells.

Nice to find neighbors with the same kind of interests & maybe even help each other from time to time.

Where are you guys? I am east of Alton, Missouri.

(edited to add: I have a Mini-Alpine doeling (one year old, ready to breed), a weanling Alpine/LaMancha buckling, and an unrelated weanling Alpine/LaMancha doeling for sale.)

LOL! Christopher Walken was wrong. We don't need more cow bell, we need more GOAT BELL!

Pygmybabies and Wintrrwolf are a couple hours' drive south of me. Wish I could find more "goat people" closer, but so glad I met Wintrrwolf (and bummer that Pygmybabies couldn't come along!)
