Yep he is fixed. He does it to be sweet. i padded my hands up on my chest and he jumps up, and when i feed he did it.

I am not sure yet what breed they are called. i know that 2 of them have tiny ears and 1 girl has the bigger ears.

I am jealous too! I WANT GOATS! They are ADORABLE!!

HAHAHAHA I know.
I fed them goat food and boy did they love it.
The boy stood on me, he put his front feet up on my chest, it was cute.



Do NOT let him do that , push him back down, last thing you need is a male goat dominating you. they can be push and with those hors you need to be very carefull, and do NOT push on their head, its the startof the head butting game. again serious injury.

I noticed that with there horns, he puts his horns down to me like he wants me to pat the top of his head or something.
I did to one girl and she came up a bit fast, so i will be very careful with them.

LOL, We have them seperated from the chickens,
but even when we let them roam, they will be still in a very huge area, yes chickens will out with them too , but the chickens get feed while they are cooped in.

We have the chicken feed in a different area.

luckily fo me i have a loft in my hen house so if i get goats i can just keep food up there

The two with short ears are at least part LaMancha, they look small [how old are they?] so may be part pygmy. The other is a Saanen, but also looks small, and maybe also be part pygmy. BTW, a goat can be even as little as 1/16 or 1/32 LaMancha and still have short ears. They are very cute, and congrats.

I was told they are Pygmy, but soem ne else saw them and said that they re mixed with something else,
so they must be mixed with what you say.
I dont know anything about there breeds, lol i will find out though quickly.
Thank you.

Wow, I've never seen pygmy/la mancha crosses. I had a la mancha doe last year and have pygmies this year.

Cute!

Yeah, I was gonna say LaMancha/Nigerian Dwarf cross, but they could certainly be Pygmy crossed. There's DEFINITELY LaMancha in there, though....groundhog ears.

Cute goats.

I'd have to disagree about the Saanen. It looks to have a cream coat with white markings, and doesn't resemble a Saanen much other than being light coloured. Saanens are quite large and leggy, and the facial characteristics are quite different. This is my Saanen "Dot". She is huge, around 165lbs and 33" at the shoulder. He looks like a Pygmy cross to me.
