      SpixiCafé I have Pygmy goats and I love them but they can be very bratty and annoying and I also have Nigerian dwarfs and they were not bottle baby’s but they aren’t as bratty but mine tend to run away and try to escape when they get put of the cage ( same for my Pygmy.

      It's the standard method of castration in all animal agriculture - that or their testicles are just sliced off when they are fully conscious! Not to be preachy (I just know that this doesn't occur to a lot of people), but every time you purchase meat, you are technically supporting this cruelty.

      Atleast the goat can live in a comfortable environment, were it's every need will be catered.
      And if the baby goat is taken without it coming in contact with the mother, after its fully been given birth to, then the transfer of a certain enzyme won't take place, which is nessescary for animals to have affection for something, and the mom will not care if the baby was taken away.

    hi there! love the video. As someone who works on a couple farms (but is still very very new to the practice of raising goats) A reminder to all those who get weathered goats, grain can form crystals in their bladder, so to be safe its always a good idea to purchase a grain with ammonium chloride listed in the ingredients to prevent this from happening (or purchase a container of this separately to feed like a mineral)

    Hey, nice video 👍🏻 My experience with goats was, that I've bought 2 babies, with my friend, who has a really big garden, and raised them, but they still were farm animals for us. Although, I've spent so much time with them. When they were young, they were extremely funny, They were really like a dogs. As they grew, I've noticed, I've became "one of their group". Young male was extremely friendly, female was little more shy. And so, as he grew, I've noticed, his behavior towards me, started to change a little bit. Probably due to starting hormonal changes. As we played, pushed and and kicked me with his horns more and more often. And I wasn't suspicious, because he did it still as a part of the game. Then when he became "adult", he came to me, let me bug him, pet him and play with fire a while, but most of the time, although he liked me, he saw meet me like an opponent, so he pushed me, and kicked me all the time. What was worse was, they found out a way, how to get to the other side of the fence, by going under the fence. And then they were bug problem, because they got into the nice part of the garden. Young fruit trees were done with growing, and other flowers also. Unfortunately, next year they became such an assholes. Electric fences weren't a problem anymore, and they had to move to their new home. J

    We have feed blocks, mineral blocks is what they are normally called but do you use them for your goats? We have a pair a Pygmy and Fainting goat, they eat one of the 10 pound blocks of grain/molasses mix in like two or three weeks though the smaller ones are taking them much longer right now. We have a berry flavored block that is called The Billy Block its basically a salt block with other minerals mixed in and is brightly colored and in my honest opinion smells really good.

    We own a Nigerian Dwarf and she lives with us in the house. She is tethered to the middle of our living room so she can't roam. But she understands how to use her pee tray, and her food tray and she understands, "I need a hug". where she lets us get her and hug and kiss her about the face and neck. No resistance. She understands, "Ya Want to go outside?" Then we nudge her and she gallops out the door to her special pen where she has a condo, a throne, a tower, and her favorite spools. We take her with us to the car wash, Winco, Walmart, Post Office, Stater Bros., and Desert Feed. She is 6 years old, when we bought her she was emaciated and scared. We loved and loved on her and all she wanted was to live with us in the house. That's when we realized she was a house goat and probably lived inside with her previous owners. She would talk to the TV and when we watched Columbo she would talk to him. We love her and she is beautiful. Her winter coat is so thick and she loves butt scratchers. Goats are different from dogs, you can't train them the same way, but once you take the time to understand them and you listen to what the goat tells you what she wants, then they're a very happy goat. Happy goat owning.

    There is a white coat the climbed up on the little wooden bench and featured quite a bit in this video. Please can you tell me the breed? I had one just like this and sadly he died a year and a half. He was given to me so I did not know what breed he was. I like the way his horns gently curved back, I
    We would always hold onto the horn to make sure he didn’t accidentally bump me in the eye with a horn when we were petting him.

    We have malabari and beetel goats. Goats are beautifull. They are adorable, funny

    What brand of Goat Milk Replacer do you/did you use for your goats? I've heard of people using whole cow's milk, but it doesn't sound right to me. I also want to know what things could be provided as treats for goats? Are there any fruits or vegetables that are not okay for goats to eat? Thanks!

    We bought a Nigerian dwarf. We love her. We built a jungle gym for her. At first we didn't know if our two German shepherds would get along. Well make a long story short, she has her herd. She runs, they chase her. She is having a ball. She eats nothing she is suppose to like. Now, she eats her corn and hay, she likes her treats. But what she really loves is saltine crackers and caramel corn. I wish we to get her to eat fruits. She really has enlightened my wife's life. We are in our 60's. I wish we could post pictures.
