    According to my wife they are pregnant for approximately 927 days.... Or at least that's how it seems to her when she's waiting on them to give birth... LOL!

    Lets talk about goats!

    We've had to add menu items that our goats, or at least Eddie, will eat. The paper strip at the top of feed bags and the styrofoam padding on a bicycle. The other goats really don't try to eat everything that sits still. But as soon as I park the tractor, the gator, the truck or the kids get...

    Lets talk about goats!

    Our mini donkeys and mini horses do fine with our goats.... Except the new babies that are "strangers" to them so the donkeys attack them. They are there as livestock guardians but we won't be able to put the babies out until they are bigger.

    I suppose it could have been a dominance thing. Just with him being so much bigger than them and the fact they've never displayed this behavior before bewildered me. Usually their dominance displays is pushing each other around. This looked exactly the way they stay after a doe in heat. Not...

    And since I am posting pictures of him .. The other day both bucks were aggressively trying to mount him. I mean they were relentless like he was a doe in heat. He's a whether and luckily bigger than both bucks so he was able to fend them off... But what caused the behavior? That's the first...

    Depends on your state laws. Maybe someone from your state will post. Meanwhile, inquire with your State Department of Agriculture for rules and regulations.

    Lets talk about goats!

    Some are just very vocal. Our youngest buck is about a year old now and he still drives us crazy with his noises. Mostly he just loves attention.

    Lets talk about goats!

    I know they won't eat anything.... It just seems like they do. You would have thought one tongue swipe on the wet paint would have been enough to deter but nooooo...lol. Even one of the horses wasn't deterred by the odor of the paint and stuck her whole muzzle in the paint can. Now we know we...

    As they feel they need it?! LOL!!! I wish my goats were that smart. They lick wet paint because they THINK they need whatever they can get in their mouths. Left as free choice they would eat a whole box of baking soda...lol.

    Those should be sufficient for identification for anyone who knows their breeds. Hopefully you'll get your answer soon.

    Start with better pictures. I'm not a goat expert so I can't always identify breeds. If no one here can help, go to The Goat Spot forum. Lots of help and experts in all things goats over there.

    Lets talk about goats!

    Just so it's known, they are only being sold so we can keep 3 of their doelings without having to worry about them breeding their daughters. They are very friendly and love attention. The smaller one [buckskin] has blue eye genes and both of his daughters are blue eyed. Both could have been...

    Lets talk about goats!

    There was some questionable information in the ad that led the experts to believe they might not really know their goats. It's been several months so I don't remember specifically. But I was advised to steer clear of that particular breeder. If you've never been on The Goat Spot, you should...
