Thanks for all the info. Yeah we use donkeys to guard our cattle. They will stomp and kick the heck out of a coyote. They will also pick them up with their teeth and thrash them around.
I guess what I heard about goats may not have been accurate. I'm looking forward to getting the land and then some livestock on it.

Does anyone here raise goats?
I know it's REALLY off topic but this is the only forum I really frequent. I'm looking to buy land in the next year or so and I want to raise some livestock on it. I keep hearing that goats are really cheap and easy but then I'm told that in an area like East Texas they don't do so good because there is not enough rock in the ground and they have hoof problems. Is there any truth to this? I thought about maybe even bringing in rock to the area I would keep them and I would have some hard packed caliche roads.
Any ideas or web pages you can point me to? I'm not finding anything.
