No. These are the first goats I have ever had. They are all African Pygmies. I chose them for several reasons. I have a muscle disorder so the small size was better for me to handle. I wanted them primarily for milking and their milk is closest to cow's milk in that it has the highest butterfat content and highest sugar. They also give a good anount of milk for their size but don't cost much to feed. We do plan to eat excess kids. I also had the first 3 does given to me so that was a plus.
I am so enjoying watching these kids. They are growing so fast. I like to watch them hopping around like rabbits. I have them on the hillside where there are some rocks for them to climb.
