With ours we are aiming at something between "annoyingly friendly" and "a complete rodeo on the milk stand." LOL It can be fine line. We do spend loads of time with them and take them with us on long walks in the woods with their moms so that they get some idea of what is a "goat" and what is "an old goat"...if you know what I mean. We will just have to make adjustments for the boys...but we have to do that anyway when we bottle feed because we separate them from the girls at 8 weeks...completely. They go down to the buck pen. Although they live in a shelter separate from the big boys, they do interact with them and we still bottle feed them until 6 months (if they stay that long) and that seems to work making them very friendly to people. Pictures last year of Phantom and Regent with Noble and Knox. They stayed until they were sold at about 4 months of age, were bottle fed, very friendly and still out with the big boys.
