Question about goats

His face is wider than most pygmy faces.

His face really isn't that wide he's just hairy. I had to shave his neck to draw his blood and now he looks like he has sideburns

Haviris-Yup, he's a Dwarf

He was my first goat and I fell in love

If only they all stayed that small.

Actually 26in sounds really big for a nigi! I think the max for a doe is 22 or 23 inches (somewhere around there, I'd have to look to see exactly, I don't have any that tall).

bheila, I'd wondered about that, so he may not get much taller, but he wouldn't be the best example of what a pymgy should look like, he's a cute little wether though! I have a friend w/ a dwarf miniature horse, he's a cute little rolly polly thing, not something I would be happy to see out of mine (either horse, or goat), but they are still cute little things! I guess that's the little tiny pet goats everyone wishes they had, it's funny to think a newborn nubian would be bigger then him!

My female is knee high at the back and the head is mid thigh on me. I'm five feet tall. I am guess she is 26in? However high my knee is, that is where she lands.

She's probably not as tall as you think, my tallest is probably somewhere in the 20 in range.
