Pygmy

Dot, Martha and Molly are our cheeky Pygmy goat nannies and Billy is our Nigerian Dwarf Pygmy goat billy.
 A Pygmy Goat is a small breed of domestic goat.  Although they produce a very large amount of milk for their size, they are not typically used for milk or meat.  Pygmy goats tend to be more robust and breed more  continually  throughout  the  year  than  either  dairy  or  meat  goats. The Pygmy Goat is quite hardy, and can adapt to virtually all climates.  A  full  grown  adult  male  will  weigh  18  -  27  kgs  (40  -  60  lbs), while  the females are slightly smaller weighing in around 15 - 22 kgs (35-50 lbs).

You'll find our Pygmy goats in the Children's Barn.
