The Herd

Here are photos of the new herd, now complete again and more or less getting on together.





Isn't he a heartbreaker?

This is Dave, one of the two new goats that I brought home last week. I just couldn't call him anything other than Dave for some reason. He is a pygmy so has a bit of small goat attitude but it adds to their character I think. Can't recall how old he was now, not all that many years behind him.










And this is Winny, very doe like in her appearance and the largest of the four. Very Anglo -Nubian in her manners, panics at the drop of a hat and though incommand of the herd, looks to Dave for protection.











Here we have Violet in the foreground with Kaiser my other pygmy goat. And the final one is of all of them in my front garden. Well at least they aren't trying to head butt each other to death.

All in all a fine little group. We did try them in the same stable and it sort of worked but on reflection I think there is more work needed there. We have to let them sort it out amongst themselves really and not push it.
