From what I was told Boar Goat meat is fetching over $8.00 a pound in NYresturants. Similiar prices are to be had here in the Northeastern part of the US. as Britt stated in Florida. Believe it or not I have not eaten one of my lambs/sheep because of the sales. Sue

I'm giving a presentation at the North American Hair Sheep Symposium in San Angelo, TX October 6-8 and when I read your comment I thought it might be interesting to hear your insight so that I can perhaps address this concern in my presentation. Do you think this is just a regional (Waco) thing or do you see this trend in other parts of Texas?Carol At 01:10 PM 9/19/2005 -0500, you wrote:Goats, goats and more goats are what the former TX barbado ranchers have. A few are still ridding themselves of all hair sheep.Carol Elkins Critterhaven--Registered Barbados Blackbelly Hair Sheep (no shear, no dock, no fuss) Pueblo, Colorado http://www.critterhaven.biz T-shirts, mugs, caps, and more at the Barbados Blackbelly Online Store http://www.cafepress.com/blackbellysheep _______________________________________________ This message is from the Blackbelly-blackbellysheep.info mailing listVisit the list's homepage at Blackbelly-blackbellysheep.info@lists.blackbellysheep.infohttp://lists.blackbellysheep.info/listinfo.cgi/blackbelly-blackbellysheep.info
