A note on nigerian goats

<p>There are some misconceptions about the adorable little Nigerian dwarf dairy goat. If you love alone or there are only two of you and you aren't a big enjoyed of dairy, than yes, a nigis is perfect for you. However if you love your dairy or have a family, they just wont cut it.</p>
<p>There are some perks however. They aren't as hard in fencing as the larger breeds. Also, they can ne bred year round so you can stagger a couple does and have fresh milk 365 days a year!</p>

So it comes down to if you want to milk 3 or 4 goats at a time. Or 1 or 2. Lover would like to get out of nigis and stick with the big guys. I would still like to keep a mini around for off season milk from the bigger gals. I'm currently researching if the mini crosses with nigis can breed year round.  We shall see.
