It would probably help to give a little info, including a pic or description.

Health history, temperament, present care, etc.

A why its free also wouldn't be a bad idea.

I hate seeing just free because often it means sick animals, or neglected animal, mean animal. At least thats what I have found with free or cheap more often than not.
Thats not a bad thing, but its best to state the animals condition so people are aware it may need special care for awhile.
I have rescued many animals that people just couldn't upkeep.
Its best to look for someone who wants to help the animal than assume they are getting a perfect animal.


If its a good animal, then say so!! No reason not to, and a home would probable be found quite quickly!

Here is a pic of him

free pygmy buck - Goats

There is nothing wrong with him, we just have one buck to many. He is a friendly and mischevious little guy. We have both him and his brother, and we are just more attached to his brother.

We are offereing him for free because at his age he isn't the tiny cute pygmy baby and since he would have to be castrated to be whethered at this age it will cost more to get rid of bucky behavior and intact,he really wouldn't make a good pet.

Wow he is beautiful!!!
Someone looking for a breeder sure would have a handsome one here!!!

I hope you find someone needing such a guy.

I have a doe with the same color patterns.

Have you put him on Craigslist yet in their farming section?
With that picture someone is bound to snatch him up.

Thank you. He is actually prettier than his brother, but we are just so attatched to his brother that we can't give him up.

He almost looks Chamoisee but without the facial stripes. He is GORGEOUS, maybe you could find someone who wants to breed him for pygoras? What beautiful fiber that would be!!
