Good info. We are thinking of getting two small dwarf nigerian goats sometime in the near future. I have to decide if I want to fool with milking them. How hard is it?
The girls didn’t have any trouble getting on to it. I suppose I will break down and learn..just so I can milk them if I HAVE to..lol.
We have a milk stand that the goats jump on to get milked. It has a head lock and they eat while they are getting milked. I think there is a picture or two in that first article I posted. The stand really makes a huge difference I think.

Whatever you do... DO NOT let Nigerian goats ANYWHERE NEAR your email account. They’ll get away with the scams for awhile, maybe even make you a small pile of dough... but pretty soon the Feds’ll catch up and they’ll be on you like a duck on a june-bug.
Not all goats have to be milked every day like dairy goats...usually some only have milk for kids and then dry up...
