For my own information: you presumably need a different flock number for goats if you keep sheep?

I have just one for both, but I think it may depend on your local office. I have heard of people having a different number each for sheep and goats.

I could do with a different flock number, idiots at Dalton filled something in wrong and can't alter it, apparently I have bred over 12900 goats !!!

I milk my bagots sometimes and although I don't get more than half a pint, it is the most delicious milk ever.

I always thought I would like some as I mainly make cheese with the milk and it has a very high butterfat content. Sticking with my ANs though and they have fantastic milk.
