RE: Who Else Wants To Raise Goats?

Dear Goat Farmers or Ranchers,

Are you frustrated with the limited quality of Goat Raising books on the market? Are you disappointed again that they are difficult to follow? Not enough information? Do you have questions on raising goats properly that need to be answered?

You have tons of questions about raising goats and youre sick and tired of searching for information from all over the place, struggling to get the true and complete facts.

If you have any interest at all in getting a goats or kid and if you want to find out what type of goat you should getor you just want to figure out whether you should get a goat or notkeep reading on for the most important information you need to know.

Whatever your reason for choosing these fascinating livestock, you need to know how to raise them properly, from planning their birth to how to take care of them properly.

I searched in almost all the corner bookstores around. Yeah, sure I found a few goat books, bird books and the all too unknown books about livestock authored by the so-called experts. I bought them happily and started reading but when I applied the tips given, I discovered there was still SO MUCH MORE that was NOT addressed!

After a hard consideration, I set out to find these secrets myself. It was not easy at first, but I pursued and persevered.

I ended up doing my own research to find out the truth about these secrets so that I can take good care of my own herds all of my goats.

Then, I wanted them to get along with each other AND the children. I spent over 3 months just communicating with veterinarians, other goat owners and various experienced breeders of different goat types. My goal was to get global expertise from different people and get their input as well as learn from their experiences.

For example, do you really know:

	Are raising goat hard? What do they eat?
	*What is a good size herd for a beginner?*
	What things should a person know before starting to raise goats?
	*What is the best way to get the goats to go from one grazing area to another?*
	How often do dairy goats need to be milked?
	*Where can I find meat goats for sale?*
	What are the steps in starting a goat farming business?
	*How to improve the quality of the goat meat from the beginning?*
	What are the common diseases faced by goats and how to control it?
	*What is the least expensive, but most effective fence to keep goats contained?*
	How many goats could I keep on a 1/2 acre of land?
	*What is the best kind of fence for different number of goats in your farm?*
	Any equipment that is essential to raise goats?
	*What does it cost to raise dairy goats?*
	Do I have to start big to succeed in raising goats?
	*I just bought my first Boer goats. How do I name my farm?*
	What are some good goat breeds?

If you answered no or not sure to even one of these questions you ARE putting your goats at risk!

Then, I researched on the internet, burning the midnight oil to read articles and forum posts to find out more. And, of course, I did not forget about the tips I've gathered from books I've bought from the local bookstores.

Phew! It was a lot of work. But if you were to ask me whether it was worth the effort, I'll say YES because I finally got my answers. It's no longer a secret to me how to raise my goats happily and healthily the way I want it.

Here's your ticket to fast-track learn that and to end any shooting in the dark, figuring how to achieve that

I've recently put together a 276 pages downloadable ebook called..
