I have a question for ya'll up in the Kennewick WA area.
I am looking for a "Summer Job" with one of the company's that uses goats for brush control.
Talked today with "We Rent Goats" in Idaho, No luck
But they referred me to a Prescriptive Livestock in Kennewick WA area , Ray Holes.
Said he runs multiple contracts, and has close to 2500 brush goats he leases out on seasonal/ contract basis.
Any one here know anything about the operation/owner? Let me know either in the open or by PM.
I was told he brings in Peruvian herders on green cards to manage the goats but might need somebody on sites that can speak good English, do medical work and PR. I also am experienced outdoors man and camper.
No hotel needed I'll take a good tent and camp close to the goats any day.
Happy Trails

What will you do with your boys while you're gone? You sure don't want them co-mingling with brush goats! Too much disease risk.
Hello Taffy I am in the "Early" Stage of interview and it is a "Summer Job" so none of my critters will go up there.
I have provisions in place here in SC that will take care of my critters.
If it turns into something long term I and employer will work that out when the time comes.
I appreciate your concern.
The actual location of the main ranch is Grangerville, IA.
LOTS of NFS land around there they have contracts with for brush control.
Also prime Deer,Elk,Bear country. Several Guide outfits in the area.
NO mountain goats.
Closest big towns are Spokane WA to the west and Boise ID to the south
It could make for a "Interesting" Summer Job.
Who knows I might find a couple "Friendly" Brush goats and teach them to pack.
Happy Trails
