Finally got goats
Well after a while of research I finally got two goats. Gracie is two yrs old and pregnant and Dusty is a little over a yr. they are very friendly. I know they are not official milk goats but I am going to see how she does

Very cute little pair you got there. They look like they have been well cared for too.
I would guess Dusty is more than just a year old from the size of his horns though but maybe he's just a fast grower.

They are myotonic (fainting) goats. She is a sweetheart, she follows me around while I work in the garden and take care of the chicken and pigs. He's friendly to me, he will lean up against me to get pet. He is protective of her when my German shepherd tries to say hi to her. He has head butted my German shepherd a few times.
