You can buy them at auctions or if your driving past and you see those animals outside you should stop and ask the owners if they know of anyone who's selling these animals. And if you don't know that much about these animals you probably shouldn't buy them just yet. Also, searching online for farms in your area can help you find quality animals for sale. Many farms hae websites now. The best place to buy them is from a breeder. REPUTABLE breeders know the capabilities of their animals, and will only sell you animals that will fill your requirements, that you can afford. They also have the knowledge to assist you as you encounter problems.The "roadside guy" probably has no real knowledge.

What are uses of goats in Africa?
There are so many things that you can use your goat for today; the possibilities are endless! Generally, there are three types of goats: meat goats, angora goats and dairy goats. The meat goats are Boer goats, which is their breed, but often dairy goat wethers (boys that are unable to produce offspring) are killed and eaten. Angora and Cashmere goats are goats that are bred for their wool, just like sheep. Their wool is fluffy and curly. Their are many breeds of Dairy goats, although common are Saanen's, Nubian's, British Alpine's, Toggenburg's, Sables and Australian Melaan. Saanens are white in colour and produce the most milk, although Alpine's milk is creamier. Nubians are strange, as they have very long ears! Although you might be very put off by all those 'My Highland Goatie Oatie Oatie Oatie Oatie' songs and stories about goats eating clothes off your washing line, this is not true! Goats are beautiful and calm creatures that make perfect pets for people of all ages. Please Google pictures of these goats as they are so beautiful. Showing your goats is fun, and anybody can do it! All you need to do is have your goat registered with your dairy branch. Goats parade in a circle and are judged on size, quality and milk. Goat kids are the cutest animals around, as they are so delightfully bubbly in personality. They will jump all over you! There; now do you know what you can do with a goat?!
