I’ve been thinking a lot about what type of goats we want to
have. I know I want one that is a good milk producer because the main reason I
want goats is to be able to make cheeses. My family eats A LOT of cheese and I
would love to be able to make it fresh for not only health reasons but
economical ones as well. I don’t know if
I would like goat meat or not, I’ve heard it has a ‘gamey’ taste to it but I’m
not opposed to trying it.
I’ve read dozens and dozens of sites and asked a few people
I know what breed they suggest and why. While many people can give me a favorite breed
few could actually give me a really good reason as to why that is the right
breed.
I finally found the answer to my question here. They give a
great breakdown of what each breed is best for and what’s more they give the
characteristics of the breed that make them right for each category. It looks
like what I’m interested in would be a Nubian dairy goat.
Hooray! I know what kind of goats we want. Yet another reason the waiting is dragging
on. Ugggh.
