Pygmy Goats: Management And Veterinary Care
by Lorrie Boldrick (aka Blackburn) & Lydia HalePublisher: All Publishing Company, 2009
ISBN is 9780962453137 / 0962453137Paperback
5.4 x 8.6 inches, 237 pages
A book for every goat owner's library. This book has been a long-time undertaking, and the pages herein are a compilation of experiences and expertise gained over twenty-five years of owning and caring for pygmy goats. The enclosed information is not intended to be all inclusive nor the final word on pygmy goats, but rather a general guide and reference.----------------------
The American Pygmy is an American breed of achondroplastic goat. It is small, compact and stockily built. Like the Nigerian Dwarf, it derives from the West African Dwarf group of breeds of West Africa.Between 1930 and 1960, animals of this type were imported to the United States for use either as zoo animals or for research; some were later kept and bred as companion animals and established as a breed in 1975. It may also be known as the Pygmy or African Pygmy. It is quite different and separate from the British Pygmy breed.
The American Pygmy is small and stocky, with heavy bone: height at the withers is usually in the range 40 to 50 cm (16 to 20 in), with weights of the order of 25 to 40 kg (55 to 88 lb). Seven color variations are recognised in the breed standard: caramel with black markings, caramel with brown markings, brown agouti, grey agouti, black agouti, black with white markings, and solid black.---------------------
Lorrie Boldrick plied her trade in the wilds of Southern California for over 30 years, caring for a wide range of species, including dogs, cats, monkeys, goats, seals, wallabies, ferrets,... the list goes on and on.
