Title: Wanted : Goats for Milking : North Wales
Post by: gerpsych on January 31, 2013, 12:25:04 pm

Hi,

I wondered if anyone was selling milking goats in the North Wales area. Preferrably Guernseys - as this is my wife's preference.

Kind regards


Alan

Your best chance for registered Golden Guernsey goats would be through the Golden Guernsey Goat society, there are contact detals on the website. Google "Golden Guernsey Goats UK".
 
At this time of year you may be more likely to get young kids, especially if you speak to owners before kidding.
 
Be prepared to wait, and in the meantime go to the nearest goat shows and talk to breeders there - still the best way to see stock and make contacts.

There's a GG breeder near Aberdovey I think, advertises on preloved and shows at the smallholders show at Builth in May.
