They are pigmy goats.

awww :) How cute goats :) Thanx for sharing pics :D

I love goats! They are one of my favorite animals. You goats are so cute! Hopefully someday I can own goats again.

Aww! They're gorgeous! I love goats, they're so cheeky and inquisitive.

There were pygmy goats at the barn where I used to keep my horses. They looked just like the goat in the 2nd and 3rd picture :) I miss them.

We used to take them for walkies, and I know one lady who has two that pull a carriage (although my Jerry could give them a run for their money :p )

anyways, great pics! thanks for sharing :)

Thanks for sharing the pics Jen, I had a pet goat as a teenager, her name was Trixie, and she was a fiesty dark marbled grey and white goat, I used to take her to the roadside every day in the morning,but oneday she pulled me right in front of a car, she was extremely strong, but it was to her benefit, because from that day on my parents insisted she stay on the ten acres, we had a nice gully at the back, and she was in goatie heaven, she had the best grass and companions, the cows.

She used to head butt our dog Scottie, he soon learned to keep out of her way, and my mother would never beable to get past her to give the chooks their bread , without giving Trixie hers first, she was a bossy goat for sure, but I loved her all the same, I also remember once she got out, not sure how, and went down the road and ate some poisonous plants, my mother gave her baking soda, and you guessed it Trixie survived.:)

Jen, I didn't know you had goats too! They are so pretty! I am also a goat lover. How do you do it, cats and goats?

Thanks for sharing!

Jenn...YOU HAVE GOATS???????? Since When????

What else are you hiding over there?

Ash

Are they expensive to feed? What possessed you to get goats in the first place? (What "inspired" you, I should say!). Are goats smart? How long do they live? Can they be house trained? Like pot -bellied pigs can be housetrained?

These are YOUR goats??? Why have you been hiding them from us ... they are adorable!!! My Mom-in-law has probably 50 or more goats now! I think hers are Boehr (sp?) goats? :D

You have GOATS??? I am *so* jealous! All my friends laugh at me and say that a goat is the only thing I'm missing, and my menagerie will be complete ;)

They are so CUTE! I just love their beards!

Please, please please, more pictures?!?!?

I never knew you had goats!

I adore goats, they have such wonderful personalities :)

More photos, please!

Rubymutt- what are their personalities like exactly? Do they make great pets and would my landlord mind much?

Jen? You have goats?!?!?! :eek: My goodness! And exactly WHY have you been hiding them from us all this time? I LOVE goats!!! They're my dream pets! One day, I want to have a little goat of my own. How many do you have? Where do they live? They're sooo cute! Thanks for sharing........and you should be ashamed of yourself for hiding them from us this whole time. ;);)

Just kidding. :p He he.........Now that I know, I'm going to be begging you for goat pics all the time!

:D:D:D

The goats live at my dad's house.

When I was 14 and was not allowed to have indoor pets, cats and dogs were a dream of mine, I read in the newspaper about a baby goat for sale and asked if I could have it. And much to my surprise the answer was YES. WE brought Jay Goat home at 3 months old and he grew to be a nice sized Alpine cross with an impressive set of horns. I loved him. He died an untimely death :(:( a few years later. And then we got Kriket. She was with us for quite some time until she became paralyzed in her back legs and had to put her to sleep. Then we got the pigmies. WE got the small ones so my mom would be able to handle them better (they are incredibly STRONG!). But these 2 have never bonded with people like most goats do and are quite aloof.

I don't believe goats are house trainable, they are definitely barn pets, but their personailies are the BEST! They are curious and people oriented and funny to watch.

WOW I had no idea you had goats too!!! They look so cute!! What else are you hiding????:D
