Hello,

I came across this forum a few days ago and have really appreciated all the info here. I'm currently goat less, but I'm hoping to add some mini Cheviot lambs next year. And probably a couple of goats too. Two years ago we lost our Nubian cross Sputnik and a week later our pygmy girl Matilda. My mom raised and showed pygmy goats in the 90's. We always have had atleast 2, so its seems empty. I really like the little guys, but lately I've been looking at some of the fainting goats and nigerians(love the colors).

I do have a few other pets. There's the 2 horses, 2 gaited ponies, and 7 miniatures and Shetlands. Four dogs(3 aussies and a heinz 57), 4 cats and 2 foster kittens. Then there are the 3 rabbits, 2 pigeons, 2 lovebirds, 2 runner ducks, the laying hens, and the betta fish. I think that's everyone!

Thanks everyone

I've been doing a lot of reading and learning here. There is a lot of good info.

I think I found someone to bring down the sheep next year if all works out. She is very nice and very reasonable(about 1/2 the price of everyone else) I'm getting really excited. I've been waiting for a couple of years now. Fingers crossed!

Wildegoats23- I was in cypress not to long ago. We had to make a
Buck-ees stop
My cousin lives out there too. Very pretty area.

Sorry for the delay.

I haven't been to that bucces yet. Ill have to go now though

I've emailed a few more breeders today to see if they will have any lambs this spring. I love the breeder in Wa sheep. But finding transportation isn't easy. The best price has been about 1600 and I haven't heard back from the yet.
Still looking at goats too.
