Good advice. The guy I used to work with raised goats - and the boss would send him home some days because he smelled so bad, LOL!
If I ever have access to fresh goat’s milk, I’ll let you know. We’re in Cow Country, so there aren’t a lot of dairy goats around.
Caring for the goats was my job every summer as a kid, on my Aunt’s farm. I’m sure that’s a big part of it. My ex never liked me having chickens, but he had 200 to care for as a kid.
We actually sold one of our registered doelings to a guy from Wisconsin, drove all the way here and back to get her. We never kept a buck but would go to a couple pf breeders farms and take our does for buck service. We would just watch her and the calendar carefully. I kept a one half pint canning jar with an old sock in it that had been rubbed on a buck, so the scent could sometimes bring them into heat especially the first timers. There are goats and there are nicely taken care of goats. If I was looking in your state I would check out the American Dairy Goat Association (adga.org) and look for breeders in Wisconsin.
Our Saanens would shed their nice long goats in the spring. We would brush them and stick wads of hair in the fence. Birds would line their nests with it. It could have been spun but I just never went that far.
