After purchasing 35 acres in East Texas, we quickly realized that the lawn mower was not going to cut it, literally. So with the obvious question answered: “How do we manage this jungle?” we had to determine the type of goat we wanted. Our friends at HJT Boer Goats made the decision for us. Bill had several new babies that required bottle-feeding, more babies than he cared to deal with. Abraham and Eddie were our first goats. After attempting to raise boer goats for nearly 20 years, we switched to dairy goats. They are less maintenance and folks that are lactose intolerant can usually drink goat’s milk. A short time later we packed up like the Beverly Hillbillies and drove to Maine where we are starting fresh. Our health has greatly improved and the weather is more tolerable.
