We tried the meat goats for about 8 years. Boer and mix. As someone mentioned, if the fence will hold water, you will be fine, but in all seriousness, I never had any luck with a solar charger, they simply are not "hot" enough. I found the best combination to be woven with a hot wire about knee high, and keep the hot wire clean from weeds, etc. I had a buck that could get through and never did find out how he did it aside from going under. Maybe the market is better in another area, but I never made a dime on them, and probably lost on the average. Spent a lot of time/money on fence in vain. They are very easy to kill, meaning that if you are not with them when they kid, figure on losing some. Expensive to keep wormed, and very high maintenance (my opinion). We sold the last of ours a couple years ago. Plan the kidding carefully, and a place to keep the buck (out of sight as if he is across the fence, he will get through - period) unless you enjoy being with them helping in January, middle of the night, below zero temps, etc. depending on your climate. Not fun at all. BTDT. I know some enjoy them, and appear to make money on them, but they were not for us, but it took us a few years to learn. I cannot speak to other breeds, but I would never own another Boer or Boer mix.

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Journey to Ankeny - by Cindy Ladage. We left Illinois on the first day of July and headed north and west for Ankeny, Iowa. Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
