Spanish goats

[deschutes dawn]

The promotion of these goats are, they are less susceptible to parasites, easy birthing, that is, need almost no help kidding, excellent mothers, can thrive on lower quality forage, and are tougher than the average dairy goat. I am curious as to whether they would add good enough qualities to a pack goat program to make it worth a 9 hour drive one way to add a good quality buck (the owners assessment) to create enough of an improvement to make it worth it. I could probably "pimp" him out (so to say, hehe!) to make up the time and money involved to get him. Some of the meat breeders in this area are interested in adding the Spanish lines to their program. In this deal I would have a care lease for the Spanish does and get to keep all offspring.
I am not an experienced breeder, just an experienced keeper and critter lover so it's kind of exciting and disconcerting to consider such an offer. Apparently I need wine and chocolate to make such a decision! Aaaaack!!!!
