Title: Anglo Nubian goats
Post by: maddy on July 30, 2015, 05:50:56 pm

I am looking for some good looking registered anglo nubian kids but am having difficulty finding any.  Have been on breeders websites with no luck.

Any advice on where to look in the south east?

Many thanks.

There is also a facebook group for selling/buying pedigree goats, haven't got a link just now.

When I was looking for my AN kids I looked everywhere, but was most successful on the facebook groups and found a few breeders. One didn't have enough girls but another did and I got them 2 weeks ago, had to travel to Lincoln but was worth it.

Try the groups, Goats for sale & wanted UK and Pedigree Goats for sale, wanted and stud. Also Livestock for sale in Norfolk.

I struggled to find ANs and got the impression most of them kidded in spring, so it may be all available kids have found homes by now, but I could easily be wrong. Whereabouts in the South East are you? I'm Cambridgeshire.

I usually have AN kids for sale around now, but gave my AN girls a year off, and have only Anglo Nubian x females for sale this time.

Hi Maddy - I know we're not in the South East (we live in Wensleydale) but we have a small herd of Anglo Nubians that we are very sadly having to sell to new homes.  We have 2 adult intact billies, 1 adult castrated billy, 3 intact billy kids, 7 older nannies, 2 young nannies, 6 nanny kids.  All are beautiful goats who have been well loved.  The herd can be split but there are certain pairs or groups of goats we would like to keep together if possible.
If you are interested please message back and we can discuss more.  Of course this applies to anyone else reading this too.
Thanks
Angela

Thanks Blazye I am not sure whether my PM got through to you?  I am quite interested to know about your herd.

Many thanks.
