I live in the Central Valley of California (south of Sacramento a ways).
Hot. Drifa gets shaved from the jaw/ears to the tail and hooves at least
twice a year. Once at the end of August/beginning of September, then once
or twice during our "winter". No snow, occasional bitter cold (30 F). I
get a friend - former goat shower - to shave Drifa and she does a lovely
job. If I do it we become objects of amusement and snotty remarks from our
"friends". If it rains I do put her in the barn (she likes that).
