Goat Herd - Free to a good home
« on: October 02, 2013, 05:16:22 pm »
Hi there,

Sadly i need to move on my herd of goats due to a career change and a move back up to Scotland. I initially bought 12 pedigree dairy goats with the intention of making cheese. I then realised that it wasn't going to happen straight away so i bought and bred with a 100% Boer with the intention of selling meat. My full time job hasn't let me devote enough time to do this. The following are available:

4 British Saanens (disbudded) (BGS registered)
1 Anglo Nubian (disbudded)  (BGS registered)
1 Toggenberg   (disbudded)  (BGS registered)
2 Anglo Nubian / Toggenberg Cross (disbudded)  (BGS registered)

5 Boer X doe goatlings
5 Boer X doe kids (2 are registered with the BBGS)
5 Boer X wethers

Over the past two years i have got very close to them, but cannot give them the time and attention they deserve. I would love them to go to a good home and that really is more important than money to me. CPH required. Please get in touch with my email if you'd like photos of them or any more information. I am based in Nottinghamshire. I posted this a while back with the intention of trying to sell some of them, but i would like to reduce the numbers as quick as possible, so please, no timewasters and i would prefer the goats to someone that has experience in keeping livestock.
Thanks for reading,
Ross  :goat:

Hi
I am very interested in your goats. I currently have a mixture of dairy, boer and boer crosses ( 17 in total) that roam freely (I've given up tying to keep them in a particular field!) around my eighty acre farm in South Glos.
If they are still available please give me a ring on 01454 633502. A friend has a livestock lorry so transport would not be a problem
Best wishes
Sue
