I'm quite new to sheep AND goats but our 'herd' consists of two Corriedale x ewes, five goats (four Nigerian Dwarfs, four does and a buck, and one Nubian x wether) and King, the Barbados Blackbelly wether lamb. He was bottled from two weeks on and I put him outside at just under four months (yes, he was living indoors, first in our upstairs bathroom and later in a bedroom with a cat and a bird). He's been outside a couple of weeks now and is just weaning off his bottle. I find he is still extremely anxious to get to us and still enjoys being picked up and held closely. I sure hope he stays tame and sweet! The two 'big girls' (the Corriedale x's) were bottled but weren't quite as spoiled. They are approachable but not quite huggable. The goats are all huggable, except for the older ND doe that we got as an already wary adult.
