Hi! I'm seriously considering getting a couple Nigerian dwarf goats (I want smaller goats). I was thinking of eventually using them as dairy goats but decided that probably wasn't realistic for me... I have 3 children, 5 and under and husband isn't exactly on board w the whole hobby farm thing. But we have lots of undergrowth in our woods and it would be great to have them for that and as a learning experience for the boys... Plus I love animals. I just need someone who has pet goats to give me a realistic idea of what it would be like. Will they terrorize our yard, trees, children? They will be penned but I'd love to have them out in the yard w us when we are out - is that realistic? Any insights would be great - thanks!!!
