Almost as cute as baby rabbits.  :tup:
:chuckle: soooooo I seen the baby rabbits, and don't get me wrong I love me some cute fuzzy bunnies once they get a little older... buuuuut they come out looking like naked mole rats. Baby newborn goats are wayyyy cuter  :tung: like whole and walking around immediately and all that jazz haha.

No comparison when it comes to baby goats with their fuzzy little noses and little baby bleets telling mama to feed them, then when they try to get frisky and bouncy and fall on their buts.. But damn when the males get older do they stink, holy rat dung.. :chuckle:

They're not bad if they're wethered.  The intact bucks are horrible. Like, don't get near them.

Yea the one wether we have is a giant love, doesn't smell any different than the others. He's the first one in my little video, the black pygmy. I won't own a buck, but I do like their long shaggy hair they grow  :chuckle:

got that right, Elvis should stop smelling as bad in about a month or so, he go castrated last weekend, which he didn't seem to enjoy at all, especially the waking up part  :chuckle: he will start getting a couple baths a week until the stink is gone, he already stopped  :pee: on himself though so that's good.. We have to bathe Gracie and Betty cause he stinks them up to.. He does have cool hair, he truly looks like Elvis.. Haha.. I sure do like the way they make quick work of brush, I have to be really careful about where they get to grub..

My parents operated woodwinds dairy goats and had about 40+ milkers at any given time mainly Alpines and Nubians with some lamanchas mixed in . If  they are ever looking like they aren't feeling well ( it's easy with goats to tell ) give them salal leaves it's kinda like a aspirin for them and it helps if they get the craps

We had Nigerian dwarfs that we would put in the horse trailer with the horses that hadn't been trailered before to keep them calm they are a fun critter to have around  :tup:
