While our primary market is as breeding stock or butchering animals, one question we hear is, “Which goat makes the best pet?”. We do not recommend a single goat as a pet. These are herd animals, and need the companionship of other goats, or at the least, of other animals. Historically goats have been used as companion animals for horses. They also seem to fit themselves in well with sheep, or even groups of pet animals such as dogs and cats. It has been our experience that the castrated males (weathers) are the most friendly and easy to care for. The does can be just as affectionate but tend to be more independent and don’t seem to crave the affection.
We don’t de-horn our goats. We have never had any aggression from our fainting goats and we have had many of them. No safety problems at all involving horns. There is always some goat-on-goat aggression but polled goats will butt heads regardless.
All kids are up to date on necessary shots and vaccines. You will need to have proper shelter and fencing prior to pickup. The new kids will need to be kept in a secure pen or stall for several days before going out to pasture. It is best to feed and socialize them in a secure environment so they don’t escape and look for the rest of their herd. I recommend using a dog crate for transport with a disposable sheet on the bottom. Please email or call to set up an appointment to view and or pickup your new kids!
