Sierra Goat Noob & Q: Young Kids

[AmyB]

Hello and welcome! Glad you could join us!

I don't see why a 3-month old kid can't tag along. Keep in mind that the mama will be in milk and carrying a "load" all of her own, so fill her pack accordingly. Her baby will help keep her udder from getting too full. Sounds like a pretty easy trip to start the year. Have fun!

By the time a baby is 3 months old, it may be big enough to take enough milk there's no point in trying to milk. However, 3-month-old kids are old enough to sell.
