Also can we milk this type of goat? Is she a Dairy breed?
She just gave birth a few days ago, if we can milk her how long should we wait?

  1. She looks to be a boer/nubian cross

    The boer goat is a meat goat and the nubian is dairy goat which means she is a great dual goat. No matter the breed you can always milk her. She looks a bit skinny, up the grain and alfalfa and oat hay!
