Goats and chickens

[Star and eclipsa]

I might get two or three pygmy goats if me and my mom move in with her boyfriend. And I will also get more chickens. I told my mom that if we do move in with her boyfriend the only requirement I have for the house is that it needs to have a fenced in yard and she agreed. Would chickens and pygmy goats do well near eachother (but separated by hardware cloth most of the time) and sometimes could the chickens and goats be together because I would let the chickens out of the run to wander around the yard too. Though, this whole thing is a big maybe so it may not even happen, but I want to be prepared if it does happen.

As long as the goats can't eat the chicken feed they are fine. My goats and chickens share a shed. The chickens can move throughout the shed but the goats have a pen. The chickens go over, under, or through the fences to get to their feed and water.

I have occasionally seen a chicken riding a goat.

They wouldn't be able to eat the chicken feed. I also want teacup piglets but I know those wouldnt stay small for long and they would grow up to be big.

Haven't had pigs since I was a kid. Not a fan of pigs personally, so I can't comment on them. They are cute but they seem chronically ornery. We used to try to ride our pigs, we were dumb kids.
