Scrub Eaters

Ann from Taupo Central

They are frightened of cars so definitely not suited to the roadside. … View moreDo you have an area of blackberry or broom that needs tidying up? Or any other undesirables on your property? We have 2 lovely goats that need new homes. Very friendly. Great with horses, cows, chickens, dogs, cats and children. They are frightened of cars so definitely not suited to the roadside. This is an urgent rehome as we've run out of feed. They are brother and sister, two years old. Zeus is a whether and Cora is cycling ready for breeding.
