Two more mouths to feed !

These two male Saanen goats, Boo and Ryan, came to us a few weeks ago. Saanen originated from Switzerland and are have been bred to produce milk. The females, who produce milk, have to kids each year, and so most of the young are slaughtered, the waste product of the milk industry.

These two guys thou are the lucky ones, they were acquired from the farmer by a member of the public, and brought to us.

Boo and Ryan will be castrated soon, then we will be looking for permanent homes for these great, friendly characters.
