they are very nice looking goats, I just have a thing about the no ears, to me it's like their not completely built yet. But yours are beautiful.:thumbsup

Congratulations-yeah, I am not all about the ears but I absolutely LOVE their coats-so silky and smooth.

Yippeee! I love love LOVE my Lamanchas. They are the sweetest goats and their milk is wonderful. I think you should be very pleased with your choice :)

We are milking 2 does with kids right now.

We got a tip from Roll Farms when we first started milking that works great. We leave the kids with Mom in the daytime, but put her in her own stall at night.

When we milk her once a day, early morning, there's plenty of milk for us and the babies too. We don't milk her completely out, we let babies in and they finish the job.

We don't start milking for us until the babies are 2-3 weeks old. They get it all at first.
