Crizzy,
There are several different types of goats. You can either get a goat that is best for milk or meat depending on what you plan to do with it. Goat are a lot higher maintainence then a dog. If you just want them for grazing I would suggest you get either whethers. They are male goats that have been castrated. You really do not want one of each sex. Unless you can separate them. You will need a good fence. They like to get into trouble by eating you prized trees or garden. I would suggest checking out this link: http://fiascofarm.com/goats/getting-your...htm#lesson This will give you an idea of how to care for them. Hope this helps.
