It is a lot of work, especially at kidding time and after until the kids are all going well( but worth it) . I have a local buyer for all I don’t sell when I advertise on CL . Some years I sell them all on CL to family buyers looking to find a herd sire, brush control, pets, 4-H or add breeding stock to their farm.
I try not to go the auction route but do if I have to. It has been several years since I had to.
No I am in MO. They do an excellent job of clearing . It really is amazing.
Awwwwww
As a child I would get very upset about baby goats being called kids. I was insistent I was a kid and they were called “baby goats”.
I always call them my goat babies.
As you should! 
Had a vet assisted somewhat traumatic kidding last night but everyone is OK today.
what are their names?
No names yet. That is my daughters department ( I am seriously lacking in that) and she is still thinking!
cuteness overload!! boys or girls?
Bigger, more white bodied is a buck, the smaller a doe .
My daughter finally came up with some names .
JOEY & JESSA
great names!!! I would love a small herd of goats.
I sell kids every year. I will have unrelated pairs this Fall and can get you started @MunchingonHay 
we can’t even keep chickens here 
my subdivision would not be happy 
It can be hard to keep goats a secret. They can be noisy sometimes 
Had all but 3 of my girls kid in the same week. Now that things have settled thought I would share a few pics.
So far I have 19 doelings.
7 bucklings.
They are SO cute!! I love their little spots. The little goat in the fifth pic - that marking on her head looks like a chicken.
I love those little appaloosa ones!
You are right !!
The sire of many of these kids has a marking on his side that looks like a goose. I never noticed it until my neighbor took a picture and gave me a copy of it and pointed it out. A daughter of his I kept from last year has almost the same identical " goose" on her side.
@jingal I have to admit I love the spotted ones too !
Have 2 new ones Mark & Maggie.
