Breeds of milking goats:

Australian Melaan: This is a fully black goat. When they have a kid, their udders are huge and you can milk 7 litres > if they are mature.

British Alpine: This is a black goat with white Swiss markings. They are quite a popular breed of milking goats. Lots of people show them. Their udders can grow huge and most people dehorn them. They are very useful goats.

Nubian: These are very pretty goats and what is easy to tell them apart from other milking goats is that they have big, long, floppy ears. Usually they have a white mark on the bottom part of their belly which reaches over to the other side. They are mostly dehorned. They are excellent milkers and are very productive goats.

Saanen: This is the largest breed of goat. They are white and it is unsafe to have them with horns. They are excellent milkers and their udders grow huge because of their size.

Toggenburg: This is the smallest breed of milking goats. You can have them with horns if they are gentle, but it is best to have them dehorned. You can also milk litres from them, even though they are smaller than other milking goats.

Do I have to milk my goat?

Yes, if you have a dairy goat, you will need to milk her regularly to ensure her health and maintain milk production. Most dairy goats should be milked at least once or twice a day, depending on the breed and your milk needs. If the goat has recently given birth, you'll need to start milking her after a few days to keep her comfortable and healthy. If you don’t plan to use her milk, you can allow her to nurse her kids instead.
