On a milking stand! I imagine that you could put it anywhere that it will be convient for you.

If you are milking the does what's on the menu for the kids? You can milk in a garage or any fairly "clean" area. One of the biggest reasons for folks failure with goats is due to getting the animals before they are prepared for them. They don't need a big barn but do need good fencing. Tom

Thanks for the info. I'm trying to become as prepared as possible before getting the goats, that's why I've been asking questions. I'm planning on building a smallish 10 by 12 barn for now (adding onto it in a year) but want to make sure I have enough room for milking. The barn will have electricity and running water. I'm just not sure there's enough room in such a small space to also milk.

As for fencing, also working on this. The area is 70 by 100ft. It's woodland area, so I will section off smaller areas at a time for them. The fencing will be 5 ft high all around.

Thanks for your time,

Jenn
