Goat keeps biting me. Why

[terrilhb]

Ok so my new goat Sara is normally a sweetheart. But yesterday and today when she is nibbling on my clothes she has started biting me. And pawing me with one of her legs. I don't think she is trying to hurt me. I am sure this is normal goat behaviour but just wanted to check. Is there anyway to stop her from doing this? Now today my boys are doing it too?

She loves you and you taste yummy!

Thanks I thought maybe that was it. She is so sweet. I love her.

Because she's a goat. Try telling her no and distracting her with something more suitable for eating.

one of my goats would lick/nibble on me a lot...she is pretty friendly and all, which I like, but the nibbling part got a little annoying. I think she liked the salts on my hands or something? anyhow, after I started giving my goats more minerals, she stopped being so ''nibbly''

I have a licker. She will just stand there and like you like a dog. One is a nibbler. He's always nibbling on me. I think hes looking for treats.
