Ok, so I think I'm leaning more towards getting goats again. so my question is--- if I were to build a permanent area for them--considering two small breed (maybe two large breed) goats, what is the minimum size I would need for an pen. I would still be letting them out in electric netting , but on the chance that they have to stay contained- what size area would I need for them to be comfortable. For kidding, we will set up an area in the barn, so that need not be a concern. (as soon as my chicken addition is added, that area will be for kidding)
And--if I have two does, could they be kidding at different times so that I have a fairly consistent supply of milk?
Would the best book for me to get be the Storey's one, or is there a better source of info.
Thanks!
