About this section
Goats and kids from backyards and small holdings: dairy Saanen and Nubian, local down-bearing types, meat crosses. The keeper states breed, sex, age in months and live weight, while milk yield, mating history and temper are worth asking about in the message thread. Sorting swaps between cheapest first and newest first, and the side panel cuts the list down by breed, sex, age and province. When nothing suitable is listed, leave a buyer request describing the animal you want, and sellers answer it themselves.
How much milk does a goat give?
A Saanen or a Saanen cross at the peak of lactation gives 3 to 5 litres a day, while a local unpedigreed goat gives about one. Feeding and lactation number move that figure, so ask about this goat rather than about the breed.
At what age can a doeling be bred?
Go by weight, not by months: mate her once she reaches roughly two thirds of adult weight, which is usually 8 to 10 months. Breeding her earlier stunts the doe herself and gives weak kids.
Are goats harder to keep than sheep?
A goat browses bushes and branches, climbs, and walks out through a weak fence, so the pen has to be higher and stronger than a sheep pen. In return she is choosy and will not touch trampled or dirty hay.
How do I judge the udder?
It should feel soft, with no lumps or scar tissue, and the teats should match and be easy to milk. A hard, knotted udder is a mark of past mastitis: such a goat costs less but milking her will be hard work.
