Chillin' with the herd
Hi everyone. I've migrated here from BYC . . . my chickens are happy and healthy and I'm interested in learning more about caring for other animals. Cheers to all, and happy new year!
BTW what is the little icon I see next to some topic titles? I can't see it well but maybe it's a little cow . . . ? Can't figure out what it means.
Anyway, my BF mentioned (out of the blue) that he thinks we should learn more about raising either alpacas or angora goats, with the eventual hope that we might have a hobby that brings in a little cash. I don't think either one will make us rich (or even let us retire) but I'm interested in both, and would like to know if one or the other is an easier introduction into keeping herd animals. I don't expect any animal to be effortless to keep, but is one or the other in any way more or less complicated, health- and management-wise?
