Thought I'd misspelled that, didn't you? No, I'm not looking for a goat border, but a place where I can board some goats for a few months...?

Any North or Central Texans able to help me? Please email asap at erinosmith@hotmail.com. Thanks!

Erin - I sure hope you find a good "goat hotel" for your goats - I'd say you can drop them off here, but Utah is a little bit of a jaunt... Good luck!

XOXO, Libbie

Yes, Eren... please do ask. I'm pretty desperate at this point.

There are five female Angora goats - all adult, none bred at the moment. They'll be sheared beforehand hopefully, and I'll take care of any worming or whatever that is needed.

It's only for a couple of months, maybe three at the most. I'll pay board and provide their feed etc... and even give one of my first born (later) to them, if they want one for their own. I'll even come out on weekends and check on them, clean any stalls, etc. if needed.

Angoras are really sweet and pretty docile. Much easier to handle than some of the other goat breeds. They are full sized though, not pygmies. These have been babied and love animal crackers.

Please let me know asap as I need to give a definite answer to the seller sooner than later. He has to have them moved by March 15th, when he moves to his new farm.

GOOD NEWS! Not only have I found a place to board my goats, but they said they would do it for FREE. I just need to provide the buckets, feed and tack. My DH said I could have them if I could find a place to board them, then later on he added, "And if you can afford the board."

But I'm not celebrating yet. I still need to close the deal, so to speak.

However, when I do get my goats, I'll take lots of pics to show you all.
