Pygmy Goats?

Madeleine · 2008-05-18 00:58:03

Hey, I'm planning on getting some Pygmy Goats to keep as pets. Does anyone know anywhere relatively close to Monaghan where I could get them? Also, any tips on keeping them and feeding and whatnot would be appreciated, as I've never owned goats before. Thanks

All I know is that they need very good fencing great escape artists and they love to climb so if you can set some large rocks or large tree stumps/logs in the center of their area they would like that.

You could e-mail Armargos goat sanctuary they might be able to give you more info on goat care http://www.armargos.com/

ask at any kids pet farm...loads around. They are always glad to get rid of stock for the winter. These goats will be very friendly when you get them!
