Well, some of them anyways. I LOVE looking at everyone's goat pictures so I thought I'd share some of mine

Hehehe VERY NICE! Only Obers I have ever seen was ugly but yours is downright gorgeous.
Love JW's shiney white coat too. What kind of minerals are you using?
One of my 3yrs old mama still tries to fit in the dog house.

They are all beautiful goats & you took some really good pictures. I have to agree with everyone else though........JW is a hoot, that is hilarious, I wonder how he gets in there, Looks like a struggle to get out too.

These are some of the best pictures of goats I've seen. Are they goat models? Not only are they beautiful and adorable but they pose beautifully. It makes me want to go out and take some pictures. Thanks for posting them.

Thanks everyone! The hubby did good this past Xmas giving me a new fancy digital camera. That's the only reason the pix are so good.

I'm ashamed to say that I don't know what mineral I have out there for them. Can't put my hands on the tag I kept last time I puchased mineral. Had to do some switching around over the winter cause the girls had some rough looking coats. They look great now so I think I've got the right combo going on.
