This vintage book contains a complete guide to keeping goats, with information on breeds, housing, milking, and all other aspects. A highly accessible and novice-friendly handbook, "The Indispensable Goat" will be of considerable utility to those with little previous experience, and would make for a handy addition to collections of farming literature. Contents include: "The Indispensable Goat", "The Chief Breeds", "Selecting the Goat", "Housing", "Internal Fittings", "Litter", "Feeding", "Suggested Rations", "Breeding", "Selecting the Mule", "Mating", "Kidding", "Weaning", "General Management", "Milking", "Utensils", etc. Many vintage books like this are becoming increasingly hard-to-come-by and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality addition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on goat farming.
