Goats for sale?I'm thinking of selling my two goats. don't know if I can go through with it, but they are getting too big for my taste and eating alot of hay. Also thought of butchering, but don't think I can do it myself.
Aughhh! Anyone interested in two delightful, healthy, ready to breed goats? Or at least one of them?
Any thoughts on this? I've never sold or given away an animal before.
I always keep them for life.

I am actually thinking about getting a couple.. LOL Goats tend to eat things the horses don't want to eat.. In my case trees are trying to take over my pastures. When I had goats this was never a problem...they also ate the weeds before they grew tall and went to seed..If this was level ground I could mow but unfortunately it is not..and I hate to poison where the horses eat.
My nephew was going to bring me a couple of fainting goats..and I won't
discourage him....

Yes, they are wonderful for that!
They've kept the pasture pretty clear.
Just don't have anything left after the drought.
Mine are 3/4 fainting goat - do you want them???

  You better think about it a little longer.... You might regret it. You're girls are so sweet and not as big as regular goats. Butchering? They have been pets.

I would take them except you forget ... I have Slick Willy over here
Who may have doubled or even trippled my herd.
Adie I don't know why you can't just pick them up next time you're out this way

Oh well. My family as currently nixed the idea of selling or butchering and I found 10 more bales of hay from a friend so that will help.
You are right Joyce. They are pets.

 Good family you got there!!!!  If you needed more hay you should have told me before the price went up and he sold it I would have got you more.

Not to worry Patty, we'll make sure you have enough hay when and if you find you're a bit short. We can always find some
