Interesting CL advert

This person wants to trade 9 ducks (4 of which are drakes) for a dairy goat in milk.

yea right!

I was trying to find the ad I saw the other day. Something like Muscovypalooza. Two drakes and four ducks as a starter flock; he wanted a few hundred if I remember right. I just got a few for $1 each.

These are only pekin can get them fairly cheep says 90 dollars so he is wanting a 90 dollar goat...someday in the future maybe peeps will actually know the true value of a good dairy goat.

when i first thought to get goats, I thought hey yea, i can go to the sale barn and git me a goat for $50 and have all that milk. then i started looking into them further and was shocked, $300 for a kid??! that's nuts! hehe, i had so much to learn. still do but hehe on me.

and now i see a good dairy goat and think, wow, ONLY $300?
