My niece had a little Nigerian Dwarf buck show up at her place about 2 years ago. Cute as could be, loaded with ticks, & scared. She managed to get him into the barn & a stall with food & water, then set out finding his owners, which happened fairly quickly.

He was so cute, she decided to get Nigerian Dwarf goats for her girls - a male (wether) & female. Last fall, she bought 2 pregnant Nubians & they had twins & triplets this spring, all does.

My other niece is getting the wether as a pet for her boys (& probably a honeysuckle eater) in about 2 weeks. I hope he’s not too lonely by himself. They have a steer, but he’ll be going to ‘the spa’ in about a week. If he seems lonely, I’m sure she’ll arrange a friend. I don’t know why he’s changing homes ... to be investigated!

They say goats don’t do well with no other goats around.
