“They look like a Basset Hound with a goat body.

That’s Danna Barrett describing Boers in this Arizona Daily Star story. Barrett owns the Rooster Cogburn Ostrich Ranch just south of Pistachio Point, Arizona. (We’re not making this up.)

      I’ve put your blog in my Google Reader so I can stay updated on your posts. Chickens and goats go hand in hand. I envy you having raised more than 50 breeds. I’ve only raised Buff Orphingtons and Lace Wyandottes.
