How to look at a goat
As a novice goatkeeper you may not see the point in showing or even owning purebred goats, but whenever you put a buck and doe together in the same pen, you are influencing the comfort, health and longevity of future generations of animals.
How to care for your goats
There will be handouts including: issues of Ruminations, gestation tables, and a goat medicine cabinet
The workshop will be held on the Costells' land in the Sand Hills of Red Rock, and will include hands-on demonstrations with their twenty Nigerian Dwarf goats. Bring a sack lunch (the Costells will provide water, iced tea and plenty of ice.) To register, call Maureen Costell at 830-839-4466 or email HYPERLINK "mailto:maureen@maureencostell.com" maureen@maureencostell.com. The cost is $25. Space is limited.. Children are welcome and may attend for free.
The workshop will be led by Kathleen Claps, who lived in Red Rock for 20 years. Kathleen co-organized the first Nigerian Dwarf shows in the US, bred the first Nigerian Dwarf Master Champion and the first Master Champion doe. Kathleen was licensed as a judge by the American Goat Society. Her Goodwood goats earned more than 28 Master Championships, set milk production records and provide a foundation for many top US and Canadian herds. In 1995 Kathleen was recognized by the American Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Association for her contribution to the ND breed. She also started Ruminations, The Nigerian Dwarf Journal.
