Title: livestock
Post by: Ivemovedon on December 18, 2015, 21:25:28 PM
Is there anywhere on the island that sells livestock.  I.e chickens , goats etc. Never seen anywhere on my travels round the island.

So Htt, you are considering becoming a real local, just like Spike - Ha Ha ha!
Do you have the land? We may know a contact that might supply you with a goat? 8) 8) 8)

More interested in chickens OMR. Always wanted to keep them either in the UK or Fuerteventura.  Yes we have the land and when in the future we spend a lot more time on the island we intend to do it. Just sounding out if there are local outlets or if it's best to import your own. Wife also wants a donkey ( her friends tell her she already has one) but I'm a bit unsure of going down that route.  :o

If you let me know when you want some livestock I'll make the arrangements. Laying chicken, ducks, geese, etc are not a problem, goats, camels, etc.more difficult. It's not what you know it's who you know, might be quite expensive though!
