You know what’s better than baby goats?

Pygmy baby goats.

Pygmy goats are the tiniest goats in the world and their fluffiness will melt your little heart.

Pygmy goats actually originate from Africa, where they were primarily bred for meat. But we’re not going to talk about that, are we? Nope. That’s because Pygmy goats make the best pets as well. And trust me, once you see these adorable pygmies, you’ll wish you had one to love on forever.

Pygmy goats are short, stubby, and fluffy — everything you’d want in a goaty friend. Just check out this group of them below.

    A lot of these are Nigerian Dwarfs since those patterns and the blue eyes are seen on Nigerians rather than Pygmies but, either way, they’re still so stinking cute!

    Hello I’ve been watching YouTube and I guess going backwards in my watching your shows. But I noticed u mentioned the unneutered male goats i heard that smell is the urine they spray on their beards to attract the girls. Gross I’m sure. I’ve really enjoy your shows the kids Ethan and Lydia Im prob spelling their names wrong sorry you two. And your very handy hubby Kevin. We my husb n i just moved to TN 1 year ago from WI really glad we moved weather wise 3 months of rain n cool compared to 9 months far north in WI with lots of snow. I have lupus had to move to be warmer if i wanted to live a number of yrs longer. N i do. I lived in Phoenix for 5 yrs during my 7th gr n camelback high school yrs. Loved it very warm a different kind of warm even compared to Texas i lived there for 5yrs as well. Dont like the cold n neither does my lupus. I want a dwarf nigerian goat 2 one male n one female to enjoy babies. I help in our town here an auction once a month for goat sales. Looking for the right 2. I’ll send u an email about us I’d love to learn about caring for the goats. Take care Kimmi from S.H. TN
