There may have been a few more people i...Thank you! There may have been a few more people in attendance than I captured in the photo, but I'd hoped to see more people. Something I've noticed, with a lot of people, is that they really believe there's not a lot to know about getting into goats. So, so, so many people get into the goat business thinking they can just put them out in a pasture like cattle and they will be fine. There's no desire on their part to attend an educational seminar because they feel there's nothing they need to learn.....I can't seem to understand that. Of course then, they'll run into many problems, and realize there's a lot more to learn and know about raising goats.......or they'll get out of the goat business. Seems like the latter happens most often. Seems like a lot of people want the quick easy way, and don't like hard work. All of this is just my opinion though. Glad to hear that you've found an LGD that works. They are amazing animals. Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving a comment. I really do appreciate it!

The attendance at the LSU goat session seemed to be very poor. Does this indicate a drop in interest in goat production, or did the photos not catch the crowd? Since the last time I corresponded with Shane, I acquired a 12 month old 1/2 GP 1/2 ASD male dog. In the 7 mos. I have had him he has developed into a super keeper. I had him castrated about 3 mos. ago. Keep your blogs coming.<br />Bob Monticello, FLAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
