My goats don't like me:(

Congratulations! That is a big step so it will just get better & better. Just keep spending time with them and pretty soon you will be swearing at them to leave you alone! I don't know what impact getting another will have...on one hand the 2 you have now are finally just settling in and adding another new goat may set them back..but, may not. One thing I learned about goats is that they always do the exact opposite of what you want them to do. Like if you don't want them to eat a tree...take them over to the tree and try to make them eat it. Or if you want them to graze in a certain area...chase them out of that area when they go there like you don't want them there. I wouldn't get the other one just for the purpose of her "taming" the other 2. I would get her if you just really like her and want her really bad.

See, thats the thing... I DO really like her. Or least, I like the pics/sounds of her. haven't seen her up close just yet. I'm just looking for an excuse to actually go up and look at her/buy her, TBH Like, if my excuse is that she'll help calm these two down, then that works fantasticly!!

Go for it!!!! I went through the same thing with my pups...I had the one puppy and wanted another for him to play with (that was the excuse anyway)...and all these questions come up, will the training still work, will he still bond with me, will it be too crazy, blah blah blah...well we did and it turned out to be the best decision! So follow your heart

Like I said, let them eat out of the bucket and while their heads are in there, start petting them. They will jump away but the other will put it's head in and you can pet it. In a few days, they will associate you with the food and no threat at being handled.

:happy dance: Oh yay! I got my goats into my barn!! YAY! I saw them out by my barn this afternoon and managed to lure them in there with grain!! I am *SO* happy!! I think we are going to go up and look at the other little doeling that I like/want too And probably get a LGD!! But, mostly right now, I am just *SO* happy that I have my goats in my barn again!! YAY!!!

Yipeee!!!!!!!:banana 02:
