Hello all and thank you for the information and comments.
Pete and Sam may not be ideal pack goats but they have the personality and trainablity I like in my horses.
I am not planing on using them for major packing just as promotion for pack goats and local hiking/camping.
Most people here (SC) see goats as yard pets,milk or meat.
I hope to generate some interest around here in them as hiking/camping companions.
With 5 horses (2) that I can pack or ride,One Warmbood that drives and rides to pull my Wagonet ,, A Saddlebred that is hot but would make a good Scout horse with a "Experienced Rider up" and the 2 year old Frizian filly that knows she is a Devia.
What is playing with a couple pack goats going to cost me? Not much.
I do have a bunch of places I can go for day trips and a few were I can camp with the goats but not the horses.
Thank You All for the info
Happy Trails
