Sorry, I`m useless on goats and CS; seems it`s been 30 years since I had my Jessica goat. I was the first girl member of Future Farmers of America in High School, and Jessie was my project animal. My Arabian gelding Markuba was my animal for 4H Club. Those were the days...sigh I hope to one day be back into livestock, as I truly love and enjoy them. Have you ever heard of the Guernsey goats? They are gold in color, like the cows. Imagine a cross with white Cashmere goats, wonder if you`d get a goat with golden fur and yummy milk??? Marshalee
