Raising Milk Goats Successfully

Gail Luttman, experienced writer as well as expert in the field of milk goats, has written the book on this popular subject. Selecting milk goats. Economic consideration. Feeding: pasture, forage, grains. Housing & equipment. Milk & cheese. Breeding & reproduction. Caring for kids: newborn to weaning. Health care: diagnosis by symptoms. The dairy goat business. <P> All of the information is up-to-date, much of it hard to find. Luttmann particularly excels in her chapters on feeding, on the dairy goat business where she discusses marketing milk products as well as market development, and in her outstanding chapter on health care including a diagnostic discussion of symptoms rather than diseases. Extremely helpful!

Gail Luttmann lives on a small farm in Tennessee. She is a frequent contributor to farm and garden magazines. She is the author of two other small-scale livestock raising books.
