π«£Why Nigerian Dwarfs when the market is heavily flooded with them?π«£
Great question...π
at the time I had no idea why ND. I had chose to get rid of my 400 plus pound hogs and wanted goats. At the time I didnt care breed, I just wanted goats. My husband and I had walked into TSC and right inside the door was a little wether donated to raise money for 4-H by Scout's Wood's.
My husband had contacted them and went back and forth for a few days before we sealed the deal and brought home 2 unregistered and pregnant does, they happened to be Nigerian Dwarfs. I was new to goats and the last thing I wanted was them pregnant π
Wellllll they freshened with ease and those kids were the absolute cutest π and that is when I learned about goataplacation π¬ I had originally said I didnt want more than 6...well guess what I definitely have more than 6 and they just keep appearing π€£ only now I have a small herd of unregistered and a rapidly growing performance herd of registered.
I love milking them even though most days I have to fight to do so π I just love my goats. Theyre adorable, fun, and multipurpose. I love them, the husband loves them, and so do the kids.
Next year our dairy goats will start competing and I'm looking forward to that.
