So that I don’t try to reinvent the wheel, I am going to provide links to the many sites that have helped me as I was preparing to get my goats. In time, I will provide some of my own info, but for now I defer to the experts!

The American Dairy Goat Association www.adga.org
We are members of this association and our goats are registered with them.

Fiasco Farm http://fiascofarm.com/
This is an awesome site which has a TON of information of general goat care. I really appreciate all she has worked to put on here! She also comes from more of an herbal/holistic standpoint, which I agree with. The sister site, accessible from the same link, Molly’s Herbals, sells the herbal de-wormer which we use.

 Pholia Farm- http://pholiafarm.com/home.htm
Good info here. This breeder has Nigerian Dwarfs. I built my milking stand off their plans. Very easy and appropriately sized for Nigerians. I was worried that the PVC would be wobbly, but it isn't and is easy for me to move on my own since it is so light!



Land of Havilah Farm - This farm has Nubians, so their things must be adjusted to smaller goats, but I like their natural practices and am working towards their feeding regimen. See that here-  http://landofhavilahfarm.com/loh-feed-regimen.htm

Goldenbrook Farm- Another Nigerian Dwarf breeder, good info. http://www.goldenbrookfarm.com/management-tips.htm

We have planted comfrey to supplement our goat and chicken feed. Read more and buy here- http://www.nantahala-farm.com/comfrey.shtml




www.backyardherds.com This is a good forum to ask questions and get advice from other goat owners.
