I am wanting a smaller goat just to milk for making soap what would be a good breed to go with.

hi suzie, i will be no help. LOL i need bigger teats to grab. if your hands are good you could be fine. i think there are girls here milking little ones. i am trying to dry off a lamancha. she is huge. i feel so sad for her. when she was at peak she gave almost 3 gallons a day. i would have to lift her up onto the milk stand. so this year she was able to raise her kids instead. so they are gone while mom dries off. she looks better already. i will be interested what the girls think. i have been ask this question before. i do make cold process goat and cow milk soap. my goal is A-2 cow milk soap. i shall watch this thread. happy days to you. oh and you know you cannot have one goat. they are herd animals. they are toooo sad alone. happy days sherrye
