As pets or livestock, goats are increasingly popular animals on farms large and small. Easier and cheaper to keep than many larger animals, they will keep a pony company, pull a cart, and produce the perfect milk for many artisan cheeses or meat for some of the most up-and-coming ethnic cuisines. For anyone thinking of acquiring a goat or starting a herd--for whatever reason--this book will be a resource you don't want to be without! |

This guide gives an overview of raising goats for fun or profit, meat or milk. Beginning with the basics--history and behavior, types and breeds--I answer all of a prospective owners questions about getting a goat, from land requirements and regulations to choosing or assessing particular animals or breeds. Includes details of housing and feeding, breeding and milking, training and showing, transporting and marketing goats of all kinds--as well as the dos and donts of keeping them healthy from birth to old age. Loaded with full color photos and resources.
