Where can I get some goats.

Coriolanus · 2011-01-25 19:28:39

Long story short I've a half acre at the back of the house I want to put some kind of a face on. We used to keep horse and they did a grand job but someone suggested a few goats since we don't have horses anymore. Anyone know anyone who has goats and would either sell a couple or would like a bit of grazing for them? West…

How about checking with the WSPCA to see if they have any to rehome.

Have you tried Armargos animal sanctuary, they were mainly a goat sanctuary but have other animals too now. They down the country but not unheard of for rescues in general to adopt outside of their county pending a home check.

I have a pygmy goat (neutered male) looking for a good home.

Due to the death of his pal, he is on his own now and needs to go somewhere that there are other animals to keep him company.

He has a lovely personality.

PM me if interested.
