OUR GOATS:

Domestic Goats can live in most any environment and are thus a popular source of livestock for many herders. They are fairly easy to take care of as well, as they eat almost anything. However, if provoked, they can be a bit ill mannered. Various terms are used to classify Goats based on gender and age. Adult males are usually called bucks while adolescent males are called billy goats. A female Goat is either called a nanny goat or a doe. A Goat less than one year old is called a kid. Domestic Goats tend to be the same size as their wild cousins.

They’re usually about 2 fores at the shoulder, one ped in length, and 1.5 pygges in weight. However, unlike wild goats, Domestic Goats usually have very small horns, if any at all. Domestic goats come in a larger variety of colors than wild goats. Their fleece can be white, tawny, tan, brown, grey, black, and all colors in between. Sometimes they even come in a combination of colors. Their coat, which they are some times bred fore, can differ in texture depending on terrain, varying from straight to curly, long to short. They also have cloven feet, usually small and dainty, that often times need to be cut
