Raising your own livestock can be a fun and interesting way to make a bit of extra money, and learning how to raise goats is a surprisingly easy way to begin. Goats are a very low-maintenance animal and require little more than a shelter and land to graze on. They can be raised for a variety of purposes, so it’s easy to find a type of goat that will meet your particular needs. Whether you wish to raise your goats for milk, meat, fiber (goat hair) or show, owning goats can be a wonderfully rewarding and profitable experience.
