Queensland livestock owners are reminded to renew their brand, earmark and tattoo registration details with Biosecurity Queensland by January 31.

Biosecurity Queensland Deputy Registrar of Brands Pat Kalinowski said up-to-date brand and earmark registration enabled the ownership of livestock to be established and ensures brands were being used correctly.

“Any changes to address, name or other details should be made with the annual return,” Mr Kalinowski said.

Raising Goats

Hi,

I am a new member and would like some advice on raising goats for milking. I am venturing into organic goats milk soap, and would like to know the following:

How many goats I would need to make soap for monthly/fortnightly market stalls as opposed to commercial sales
Land requirements per goat (I have 280 treed acres)
Best fencing and rotation schedules

I have read many books on the subject so any other practical suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

HI everyone,

What a great website and forum. We have a 86 acre farm on the outskirts of Melbourne and love it! Saying that, we are learning a lot. We run Angus and some Murray Grey cattle.

Cheers,
Damien
