Smile HI ALL!! New Here!! Cant wait to talk goats!
Well first off I live in Oregon on the beautiful north coast, we have a 3 acre "ranch" where we have 2 dogs, 2 cats, 4 rabbits, 5 chickens and at the moment 3 beautiful Nigerian dwarf goats (soon to multiply) a 4 month old Doe Delilah, a 6 month old wether "Pepper" and a 3yr old Doe "Cutie" (Dam to Delilah). We have only owned them for 4 months now. Im not new to goats but this is my first experience with "milkers". We want to show and have tasty goats milk to drink! The 3 we have now are just going to be pets (they are not registered) Cutie has great milking lines and produces a lot of milk and Im sure her daughter Delilah will to, so they will be useful in the milking department. Im out in search of some nice does to add to my herd for showing and milking and have no clue where to start!!
Any ways Just wanted to say HI to you all!! I have some questions too but ill start new threads for those

Oh how in the heck do you post pictures!?!

Welcome! Can't wait to see pics of your goaties To post pics, upload them to photobucket, then copy the IMG code from PB and paste it in a post here.

Good luck finding some more NDs, the people on here are great and you may even end up finding some from a poster here, who knows? If there are any dairy goat shows near you, that'd be a good place to look.

Welcome to our goat board! We are just like goats. Some of us are crazy, some grumpy, some lovable, some just stay back and watch.

Glad to have you here.
