    Goat Sounds

    I'll be working somewhere in the yard, and hear what I think is my wife calling, but no it's just a goat! They sound like people sometimes, right guys?

    Little Boston in Trouble

    She is turning out to be a good little momma! Daddy dawg "Luke" was genuinely remorseful when I buried the other two. People say animals don't feel but I know they do mentally and physically.

    Little Boston in Trouble

    Some old goats never die

    Very helpful, we operate a hobby farm with mixed breed "brush" goats. Tried for a month to sale my big buck after buying another buck off craigslist(to diversify our small herd). If you need to move a animal fast I would recommend the auction.

    Waste Management Practices - Waste Management Practices

    An often overlooked but very important issue facing many small-scale farmers today is the issue of waste that animals produce. Let's face it the issue is kind of gross and many people don't like to mess with it myself included. I have learned through trial and error that some management...

    Some old goats never die

    Other than buying a sick animal unawares, dont see how you could get "taken", since you view animals before bidding. I have been taken using craigslist plenty of times, though.

    BYH Official Poll: What are the things that you should consider before buying herds?
