We've had Holsteins, but only one we milked. I plan to get another one (a whole one) when I retire and am home more time. I plan to get a Jersey next time because they have more butterfat - and the cream is the most delicious part.
Goats are good, Kelly - you'll need extra good fences. I had goats once and they got out and ate the vinyl top off of my car - true story. I like goats, though - they have interesting personalities. My fences are built for cows not goats and at this stage of the game I'm getting too old to put up new fences.
Goats aren't an option for me right now. I wish I could get a couple goats and I think I'd like chickens, too. But I live in a trailer park. I bet there are rules against having farm animals in the park, but even if I was allowed, it's a very small lot. I was told by one farmer that I could get a miniature breed of goat and they wouldn't need much room, but I think they would need more than I have. A dog bigger than a toy poodle would want more room than I have!
