[QUOTE="A.J., post: 1439156, member: 13664"] Great job. Those are some fine looking goats. That's what a meat goat should look like. There's quite a few goats in my area. Parasites, barber pole worms in particular, have been the biggest issue I've run into with them. They can be very resistant to a majority of the wormers. As others have said having a lot of browse for them and rotating pasture is the best way to help minimize worm risk. They can go downhill so fast once they start going. The folks I know around here that raise/buy a lot of goats take them up to Pennsylvania somewhere around New Holland and say they get good money for them. Lots of demand from the Muslim market up there. You'd have to have a trailer load to justify hauling that far from here tho. [/QUOTE]
