This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Ingrid, everyone,
We have two goats, a Nubian and a Fainting goat. The Nubian is the biggest brat we have ever seen as he can get into everything one can imagine. The up side is he is like a dog, greeting everyone who comes over, trying to jump on their cars for a ride, etc. He is an awesome "babysitter" for our two year old. Whenever he is out of sight, all we have to do is look for the goats. The fainting goat is much calmer, probably because he drops like a brick whenever he gets startled, which took us all quite a bit to get used to. He is quite tiny and bright white. The horses all seem to like the goats. Ours have free run of the property and eat all the weeds, graze with the horses, plus get their own feed. They sleep in a pile of hay in the barn. Usually. We have found them on the front porch on occasion, but as they have gotten older, that seems to have stopped. Lately, they, the cats, and dogs have been found all bundled up together in their hay pile. Both of our goats are males, "withered", I think the term is for castarated. We did start off with two females, but they seemed to be more testy. Hope this is of some help.
