Welcome to BYH from North Carolina.

Your husband thinks that goats are "anchors that keep you at home and you can't go anywhere" ?

Your husband would be correct. :)

Are the goats Pygmy/Nigerian crosses?

First off, shhhh :duc you are not suppose to tell him lol

Second, yes they are crosses, and probably the only ones I will get. I want mini Nubians now and full bred for showing

Congrats on the new members and welcome from Northern Minnesota! And yes... The anchor part, is correct... Unless you have a reliable sitter to care for them. We were supposed to be at 2 goats... we now have 5. :lol:

y'all are giving him to much support on the anchor thing :lol: at least they are sweet and adorable anchors :plbb We do have a reliable sitter because we already planned on going camping an hour away for a week for the Fourth of July before we knew we were purchasing any. :bow but I plan on making a trip back probably daily lol

In terms of the goats being anchors...there are a number who train their goats as pack goats. Then camping trips turn in to backpacking trips.

Btw, welcome, from Arkansas.
