New to nubians. We're running ahead of schedule but just couldn't resist the offer of two nubian nannies-free. Current owner says shes getting rid of them cause they don't get along with the others she has but they do get along with each other. They're about two yrs old and milking.(posted 9674 days ago)Any comments on disposition of nubians and other behaviorial characteristics of the breed?
This week I'll be emptying out a 12x16 shed for them, building a gravity feed hay rack that will hold 3 or 4 bales of hay, a gravity feed grain feeder with a shut-off "valve", a 5gal watering device, putting up some field fencing around an area adjacent to the shed that includes a little patch of woods and a bunch of wild berry canes, putting some straw down on the dirt floor and making a milking bench of some sort. What have I forgotten? doing wrong? could do better? Comments please! Thanks!
