[QUOTE="Cowsout, post: 1692406, member: 41789"] I've never owned goats, but I grew up around beef cattle and horses. I always wanted a Jersey and bought a 3 month old heifer in 2013. I trained her the same as I would a horse, she ties, cross-ties, is easy to lead, picks up her feet and all of the things you'd expect in ground manners from a horse. I breed her to my Angus bull, and have thoroughly enjoyed the milk (and buttermilk and butter). The major drawback for me is I wasn't aware of the proper teat care at drying time, and she developed mastitis in one quarter last year that was a nightmare to treat. [/QUOTE]
