Massive herd redudction in March/April

The amount of goats we have right now is simply too much work. We are cutting back to a more manageable herd. A couple Saanans may be going, likely the Nubians, and the two Alpines (or at least one of them) will be going, and a couple LaManchas and a couple first time fresheners from this year. All are ADGA registered and some are fairly showable, and all are good milkers. We have about 20 milkers and will be cutting back to about 6-8.

Where in Missouri are you located?
I sent you an email a few days back from your website before I saw this asking about the goats.

Hi, two questions: 1) Are you selling any Nubians, and 2) are you willing to ship them?

Who would you like in a package? It will depend on which goats you choose if there is a package price. (I'll also need to find a very large box. )

Sorry, we are not willing to ship. Delivery is quite plausible, however. I will be selling one nubian doe, she is 3 years old.

How much for the Nubian doe, is she bred and if so when's she due? How much milk does she give?

Thanks,

We will only have one doe available in Feb. We kid in March/April and lamb in April/May. We might not even have 12 does to sell; we'll have about 8-10. Do you have any more info?

She is $200, she is due 3/31/11 and will then be available. I have no idea how much milk she gives, I bought her dry after her first time lactation. I must warn you she's had a broken leg; it has healed. She walks on it, but limps.

~Thanks, Ted
