I have read all about them on websites, and my mom had a goat book so we read that. Along with some dictonaries and in a pet dictonary I had. These two I know I looked at:

Is there anything else I should know?
The reason he was free was because the Petting Zoo was closing down. The other animals had already been found a home, the little goat was the only one who didn't have a home. My parents and I went home, and after a long talk we researched on the internet. And we agreed to own a goat. Not sure about the home care though? Should he be living in the backyard? Or in a kennel? We have lots of grain, and he loves fruit and dandilions, he also loves nuts. We have lots of large rocks in our backyard that he can climb on. We have a wood fence... don't know if he will chew through it? Is there anyway to keep him from chewing through it, if he will? I trimmed his hoofs this morning, the book said how to. Our old dog's crate is now his! It looks like hes really comfy in it, we have the crate like a dog house now. My dad built onto it yesterday, he put wood slates all over it so the rain wouldn't get into it, and we put the crate in this cave we have in the backyard, across from the pond. Is this all good for a goat?
Thanks everyone

I've never heard someone say a goat is gorgeous, but I've got to ditto, he is cute, and very funny!
