Very pretty! The one in the foreground looks like she's wearing a quilt, or made out of quilting squares!

You bet your patootie those are alpines! A sundgau (black and white) and a broken cou clair (hard to say when she's laying down though. )

Pretty ladies, love their collars!

What kind of plant is that in the background? I can't see it well enough, but it isn't a rhododendron or an azalea is it? Both are VERY posionous to goats and if it is, move them ASAP. They might not eat it if they have food 24/7, but if they go hungry for any amount of time they are likely to try some.

Yep, move it! I had planted 3 tiny little azaleas in my flower bed. My LaMancha has his choice of 5 whole acres of grazing as well as hay and what did he go straight for? The 8" tall azaleas. Needless to say, I ripped those suckers right out of the ground, lol.
