I am in lagos. What type of goat do you think I should go for. I have an acre of land already...working on building the fence and other structures.

WAD is good for the south. I dont know of any other breed that can resist trypanosomiasis well.

You fail to talk of one important factor.
Which of them have regular buyers.

Let's assume that market is not a problem. Assuming there are buyers for all of them. Rearing of dogs are more profitable. Adult dog eats once a day.
I just sold 9 out of 11 puppies one of my dogs gave birth to. The least price I sold one is 90k and it's just less than 3 months old puppy. Some were sold at 120k per puppy.
The dog gives birth twice a year.
A bag of dog food can last for over 6months for one dog. If you combines it with other cooked food, a bag can last for 8months.

Besides that, they are also doing security work for me in the house. Before you can sell your ghost or pig, you'll feed them to maturity which is birth stressful and financially intensive.

How much is a bag of dog food? Which breeds do u have?

Thanks for your suggestions. I sincerely don't think WAD is good for investment purpose. What is your take sir?

Thanks. I like dogs. I plan buying one someday. I'm happy to hear that 1 bag can last for that long.

I think it is good. But there are breeds that are better but the risk is that they may not survive tsetse flies.
