I have been around quite a few goats...and of all, my favorites have been the fainting goats. I have one now, and he is a doll! He is of course halter broken and he hangs out with my ooooooold QH mare. They are best friends! Goats are quite comical, and I enjoy their antics in the barnyard. One drawback is that they are unable to flee due to the "fainting" reflex. This makes them vulnerable to attack by predators, dogs, coyotes, etc. BUT (this is the BIG plus) they are unable to climb OR jump. So no finding them on the wrong side of the fence, or on top of your car! LOL! The goat I have is the brother to a goat that we also moved from California with--he passed away shortly after we moved to Piedmont, but he was a senior citizen then--13!! If you have the ability to protect these goats they are really a lot of fun to have. My two were wether goats so no bad smell (other than goat smell) to them at all. Good luck!

Maybe that's what I need is fainting goats. I sure don't want any goats on top of vehicles. The only other worry is I'd have to fence off the garden or any other plants I don't want eaten. I've got a trio of young great pyrenees, a german shepherd and an old australian shepherd mix that should be good to protect them ... that is, if they accept them as part of the critters that belong on the property. Yeah, I think a couple of wethers might be good ... or a few llamas

Daughter has a Kicko buck that we would LOVE to get rid of, and two sweet fainting x does. The fainting/nubian doe keeps jumping out of the pen - presumably because the buck does. The fainting/pygmy doe is to little to jump on anything much over knee high.

The buck was not raised around other goats - he thinks he's people. He jumps out of the pen to be near us. Unfortunately, he's all into the dominance thing and is constantly butting people. With his sharp, not so little horns, he's getting dangerous...

Hi,

Just put Law Grey in the google search box & hit enter, you'll get lot of pages to look through. I could have gotten some regular greys from Bruce at pinnonhatch.com, where I got my Lacey Roundheads, and did get one regular grey egg from him that hatched, but I really like the Golden Duckwing coloring on the Law Grey's.

No idea what I'm going to do with that one lone regular grey....

Matt

I may have to bend on my idea of only bantam cochins, RiRs, and Silkies. Those Law Greys are gorgeous.... every time I see your avatar, I want to reach through the screen and snatch it while yelling MINE!
