What other forums do goat people here frequent?

Are there any good forums out there that you go to that are maybe more specifically aimed at small time livestock husbandry people?

Maybe aimed more towards people who do consider themselves 'homesteaders' but are looking to increase for self sufficiency to making enough profit from small time crops and herds to pay taxes and buy what we don't produce?

No other goat specific forums but I like ATTRA and Progressive Farmer for farm management.

I've found the Totally Natural Goats group on FB helpful from the self-sufficiency angle. And I also find The Goat Spot helpful--they seem less likely to start troubleshooting with "Call your vet and order XYZ tests...."

Thanks for the suggestions! I usually dislike facebook but I am finding their livestock forums are interesting and useful.
