Re: Introduce yourself here!
Hi,
My name is Beth Fairley and I live near Falkirk with my mother Fiona. I currently have 3 Anglo-Nubians, having just sold my British Alpine back to my mother! My mother has mostly British Toggenburgs, and we have a Anglo-Nubian and British Toggenburg stud male. We also have various other animals- dogs, cats, ducks and chickens and a guinea pig that lives in the goat shed!

Hello everyone, I see that no-one has added anything to this forum!
I am Lisa Sinclair, Secretary of the Scottish Goatkeepers Federation. We are usually a very chatty bunch of people. Hoping some of our members will introduce themselves.

Re: Introduce yourself here.
Hi, I'm Honor and I have a bit of a mix 'em gather 'em bunch comprising some very well bred girls inherited from a friend who was giving up goatkeeping - they are 3/4 BS 1/4 Tog plus a real softy of a GG buck and a non-breeder rescue doe who has decided that maybe I'm her equal but that opinion is reviewable on a daily basis
I don't show and although I do keep a couple in milk for home use, they are mainly part of my extended family of animals. retired does are lifelong freeloaders as are the couple of wethers that I got attached to. Between goats and horses (plus a dog and cat) I have no time for much of a social life but wouldn't change anything

Hi Everyone
Hi Everyone,
I am Daryl Brown and I have been keeping goats for 3 years now (I think thats right). Got into Goat keeping after visiting the goat tent at the Black Isle Show and after making a few enquiries with the Highland Goat Club I ended up taking home my first goats, 1 lovely milker called Clover and two of her BS kids. They are all grown up now and had their own kids in 2008. I Currently have 5 goats, 3 in milk but hoping to have the goatlings mated in Autumn 2010. I live 25 miles north of Inverness close to Tain.
Looking forward to chatting to you all.
Daryl

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Hi, I'm Fiona I live in Deeside, Aberdeenshire with my husband and three children. I have 5 pure toggenburgs, (3 milkers, 1 goatling and 1 buckling) One milker is actually on loan to my mum at the moment as she sadly lost her saanan x last year. I've had goats for about 3 years although I had a couple when I was the same age as my children. (The goats were a British Alpine and a white feral type). We also have 2 working sheepdogs my daughters bichon frise and a sheltie aswell as 8 wyandotte and sussex bantams 1 khaki campbell duck and 1 mini silver appleyard duck who thinks its a dog. We live on a farm with my husband farming a mixed farm with cows and sheep.

Introducing myself!
Hi, My name is Claire and I live in East Lothian. I currently don't own any goats but for the past week have done nothing but read up about them- particularly Pygmies! We hope in the future to have some land and our first thought was to have 2 or 3 Pygmies which has been a long standing dream for me- of course now we are looking into the possibility of breeding them and forming a new herd. Exciting times and much planning going on. I hope to be in touch in the future to let you all know how it's all panning out, meanwhile I'll just keep reading and getting as much info as poss!
I am indeed a frustrated farmer but for now will have to make do with my chickens, children, cats, fish, gerbils, hamster, husband and dog...not necessarily in that order

Re: Introduce yourself here!
Hello all, just got our first goats and thought I'd say 'Hi'.
We live on the far north west corner of the country and have 2 female Saanen goats.
We also keep Kune Kune pigs and some chickens.
