Well, he got fresh again this morning when I was bringing them their food....tried squirting him, he backed off...when I went in again to bring them fresh warm water he kept trying to jump on me...enough was enough, I was aggravated this morning as it was lmao wasn't to into him being fresh, so I put the bucket down, grabbed his feet and there he laid on the ground and I said "that is what you get for being a bad goat" and he just laid there, with this look of shame on his face. He didn't move, literally, until I got out of the pen....tonight he came to me to get a short scratch, and he even waited for me to put their food in their "bowls" Usually he's trying to push in to get it....

Does this grabbing feet and bringing to the floor put men in line too? LOL

I had one like that when we were raising meat goats. The first time he jumped on me, I popped him in the nose. The second time he did it he was on a trailer to the butcher

Good job BoerMomma! Sounds like he was being a rowdy teenager like someone else mentioned. He was trying to see what he could get away with...naughty boy . Again though GOOD JOB! I hope he continues to behave from now on for you .

Good Job BoerMamma!!!!!!

Do not hesitate to do it a couple more times if you need to. He will get the message. My nubian buck did!

And by the way, I am the man that entered the #4 post to your thread. You can come pull on my leg if you wish to. We would just have to wait to see what happened next. LOL

You did good !
