These are my Pygmy Goats. Well, actually, my sister and I have one each. This is just to let you know a little about me, and yes, these are real pictures. In this, I'll tell you a little bit about my goat's personalities, and I will tell you how to take care of your Pygmy Goats. I will put some more photos on later. Enjoy!
This is my goat,Zoom. He thinks he's Mr. Stud Muffin and he has to dominate everything! I'll tell you a little bit about Zoom's history now. We bought him when he was 2 months old in September, 1999. We also bought his brother, Carmello. On the way home they were scared to death of me because I had ridden with them the whole way back from the place that we got them from. For 2 months we watched them butt and play together, but one night, I noticed that Carmello wasn't eating, and that Zoom was butting him away from it. For the past months I noticed, also, that Carmello was 6 inches shorter than Zoom. Anyway, I knew that Carmello not eating food was not a healthy looking thing because if animals are keeping other animals away from the food, or the animals are not eating food, that usually means that they're going to die. The next day, I went out to feed them. The date was December 7, 1999. The goats weren't coming out of the house. I knew this wasn't like them. They'd do anything for food. So, I looked into their house. Carmello was lying by the door not moving at all. His eyes were wide open, but they weren't blinking. I could tell that Zoom was heart broken because they were the best of friends. Zoom was alone now. I started weeping. It's terrible to see one of your buddies lying on the floor dead. I wished that I wouldn't have found him. I dragged him out into the snow. My mother looked out the window. She saw the corpse lying in the snow and me crying up the path to the garage. I went inside and she was right there. She hugged me and everything broke loose. My dad heared me and came to the laundry room too. Carmello was my sister's goat, but she didn't know about it at the time. When my sister came out, my parents told her the bad news, but she didn't cry. She went back to her bedroom and stayed there for about an hour. Zoom lived through the winter. In the spring we got him a new buddy to play with. Here is a video that I took of him not too long ago.
