Thanks Cooper ... am thinking, maybe he's a miniature, I wouldn't have a clue how you would know. But to be able to chew the cud, their stomachs have to be developed to a certain degree before they can do that, & he's definitely chewing the cud!
Will have to do some googling me thinks ... :D

Cost: the cost will depend on the size, type, temperament, sex and grade of the animal.
Wethers are usually from $75 - $150 and are highly sort after when on the bottle. Older "show" wethers may cost a little more and "grass eaters" a little less.
Does usually start at $250 (on the bottle) and may fetch as much as $650, depending on their potential Grade and the height of her parents (at 3yrs).
Bucks, especially good quality ones, are often hard to get hold of and prices often start at about $450. Ideally, his parents should BOTH be 3yr height verified (and be as small as possible).
OMG ... :eek::eek: People don't seriously spend that kind of money to buy a goat, do they? :Rolling::Rolling:
Well done!! :BigThumb:
:D:D Thanks Mick ... I can see it going to the vet at this rate to find out it's age, etc. I tell you, there's one born every single day, & one of them's sitting right here ... :Rolling::Rolling:

Just had another thought ... God I'm an idiot (no comments necessary thank you very much ... :Rolling:)
His horns are only just starting to come through, so has to be a baby ...
Okay, am going now, this obsession with goats is becoming a bit disturbing, even for me :Rolling::Rolling::Rolling::Rolling::Rolling:

No Grockle, been there done that. I work from home as an Ops Manager for a smallish (20) fleet, no office costs (but it does suit me). It feels like a transitional position, ie. salaried position reflecting about 80% of the hours worked (as opposed to 50% when self employed).Quote:
