Pack Goats
#2
You're in luck! Washington and Idaho probably have the highest concentration of goat packers in the U.S. Quite a few folks are starting to raise and sell. It's always easier to start young and raise them up because it's relatively easy to find babies. However, that does delay your packing dream by a few years. Finding good adult packers can sure get you started a lot sooner but it is a more difficult quest. Once people have good packgoats they don't often let go. Nonetheless, sometimes you get lucky because someone's life circumstances change and they have to sell their beloved packgoats or downsize their string. It pays to keep an eye on the classifieds here because adult packers do come up from time to time.

If you're looking for breeders, this is a great place to start:

Good luck!
