You might need to look up some pictures then.

They’re admittedly pretty cute but still kinda weird looking without the ears hah like I’m expecting them to be there and they’re not but baby goats are adorable

I’m afraid I agree with @Wild Claws on lamanchas and turkens

Oh good! I saw that on byc alot of people had turkens. I was starting to rethink the turkens lol

I used to have Nubians...and I used to like them...but they were high maintenance in this climate and constantly escaped and ruined things. I'm sticking to Katahdin sheep from now on.

Travis, Trent, Trevor, James Labrie, and Trot (and Muffin the sheep in the back)

OMG - love their names! I think we have similar tastes in music!

I have goats!
I have 17 right now, 13 does (11 ND and 2 Boers) and 4 bucks (all ND)
The Nigerians are my favorite (I’m not a fan of Boers), but I also love Nubians and Oberhaslis

I have 4 does who are all mutts! The gal I got them from had Nigerian Dwarfs, Boer, and Nubian.

My Boers were always a lot pushier than other breeds, and they were a bit too aggressive with their herd mates compared to the Nigerians. The dairy breeds just have sweeter personalities overall

Ah okay that makes sense! Although it’s a bit disappointing lol I’ve heard they’re excellent brush eaters/landscapers and pack animals lol not that I’d need the packing part but still. Do they hurt the little Nigerians?
