Goats

For those that don't know, Goats are extremely good for homesteads. if you work on your herd they give an excess of milk which can be made into cheese very easily or just used to drink. The excess can be fed to Calves before weaning, or feed it to piggys along with the whey left from making cheese if you don't use it for making Ricotta.cheese. In order for the goats to give milk they have to bive birth, the little ones can be raised for very good andhealthy meat.
