Well, I want to hear everyone's thoughts and opinions...

Ok sheesh don't scare me like that!

So do you know what breed you'll get?
I really like pygmy goats.
Depends whether you want them for milk or what.

Same. I think about the weirdest thinks! Like how you can see your nose but your brain chooses not to!

Their both boys so definitely not milk lol! It's just my dream to have a pet goat. So I am just getting them for a pet!

Ohh!!! If you want milk goats, make sure you taste theirs or their mothers milk first. Different goats have different tastes of milk. Yes, diet affects that too.

If your fence can't hold water, it can't hold goats.
Do not let the goats get to the chicken feed.
How do your parents feel about you getting goats?

My mother actually looked into getting them. On my birthday when I had told everyone that I want two goats!

If I want a fence that can hold water, it would be a wall.

Give them Gas X for bloat. Put a rope through a hose to tie them out when clearing brush or whatever.

Oh that's a great idea! I'll have to try that with my girl
