We have recently moved back to Texas and we finally have a piece of land of our own. I would love two does of a large milking breed. I would prefer Nubians or Lamanchas but will consider other breeds. I Have owned and milked goats before so I have experience. We are in Southeast Texas around...

Hey I know this post is a little old but I'd thought I'd just ask anyway. I'm not in Mississippi yet but Me and my family are moving out there soon (within a month or so) and I would like to know fellow farm people nearby :) We will be in Wiggins near Gulfport and I plan on getting some Nubian...

Dang! That's a whole lot of cute!

Thanks everyone! They're all doing great! Just waiting for Ethel to pop now! Any day...:fl

So Lucy was acting funny this morning, but I had to leave for a party. When we got back my husband comes running up out of breath saying "come quick!" and I'm like "don't mess with me because thats not funny..." he tells me he's not joking and I run down to the goat pen to find not 1 or 2 but 3...

Good luck! Hope all goes well :pop

Getting close! Their udders have gotten huge!

Love the spots! Hope all goes well for you :fl :caf

Thanks, I will definitely keep you posted and baby pictures will be up as soon as they arrive :) your doe is very pretty! I would like see pics of her kids too!

So I thought I would go ahead and start my own kidding thread as my girls are getting pretty close now(I think/hope) :) I have two mini-manchas That were bred to a Nigerian Dwarf buck. We are friends with the lady who owns the buck so they stayed with him for about a month (you know, just to be...

That's a good question, I'm in the exact situation you are and would like to know the answer to that as well :hide

I have two does, and they are awesome! Very friendly and calm goats. Their dad was a Nigerian and their moms were lamanchas so I think your guy will have no problem breeding one :) I bred them back to a ND they are due in march, hopefully some of their babies will have the short ears like them...

The end of March or begining of April, somewhere between there. I had them at a friends house, who owns a ND buck, for about a month so I'm not positive of the exact due date. March 31st is the earliest possible date and I will be watching them like a hawk from then unti they kid. Since the buck...

Thanks! It's my first time with kidding goats so I'm really excited and also really nervous :fl

I know I haven't posted here in awhile but, I finally got my girls back a couple months ago from the breeders place, and they are definintely looking bigger! (I would hope so though they were with the buck long enough to cover two cycles lol) The picturs make them seem a bit smaller, but...
