Health It
is important that your goat is healthy. A well goat is bright eyed and takes a
lively interest in there surroundings. The coat should be glossy and free from
parasites. They should have a bounce in their step without any signs of
lameness. A healthy goat passes small round pellets which resemble those of a
rabbit. Pygmy goats are herd animals and prefer the company of other pygmy
goats. Chickens, ducks, horses, cows, dogs and cats are no substitute for
another goat. Owning a Pygmy goat is a big responsibility so be prepared to
spend time picking the right one for you. Most
people will choose a couple of kids to start with. But remember you may well
need to spend a lot of time getting them used to human contact. The older goat
who have already had human contact can be very rewarding for the first time
owner. They will be more used to being handled when foot trimming or worming is
required. |
