Glad she's not mine!

Our Nubians were all loud, although we loved them otherwise and we don't have neighbors nearby who'd complain. Unfortunately one of our ND bucks right now is more loud and obnoxious than any of our Nubians were. We're just waiting for a replacement buckling to hit the ground and he can go to a new home, hopefully with an owner who's hard of hearing...

At work we have goats, all different kinds and mixes in different pens. None of them ever say anything, except for one little doe who likes to call out once or twice to see if you came to give her treats.

I have a friend who keeps a mini donkey with her nubians..... As soon as the goats go on alert not only is it BAH.... Its the loud obnoxious braying too! Then her peacock goes off. Her place is honestly a zoo. Feeding time is absolutely deafening! Between Watusi cattle, peacocks, goats, a donkey and two hybrid wolves its insane! I'm always thankful my little gals are quiet....

I have two nubians - one is usually pretty silent, unless she's hollering for her baby, in which case I figure it's allowed. She sounds like a cow when she yells.

The other one is a screamer. An obnoxious screamer. It reached a point where I couldn't stand her. She now wears a bark collar. Works well and we love her again. I'm waiting though, on a replacement collar - ours when sour in less than a month -thankfully I saved my receipts. I should hopefully get a replacement within a week - I think she's learning the collar is just for show right now - she's gotten noisy again in the last couple days.

Malina and Kuzco are pretty silent but I love when they do maaaaa, and I always wanted one like on youtube that kept saying WHAAAAAAAAAAAT , WHAAAAAAAAAAT. Maybe one day.....i love all the farm sounds though just not sure I could deal with screaming. I think I would worry something was wrong if it screamed all the time.

My nephew Matt is 16 and his family was visiting and took a "barn tour" here recently. I have a bunch of baby goats right now. You should have seen his face when walking up to them and and one little buck hollers out "MMMMMMAAAAAATTTTTTTT!!!!!" several times. WAY FUNNY!!!!

I've had quiet and loud nubians, ironically my loudest goat of all was my one and only lamancha. I've also had loud nigerians and boers.

My Nubi doe last year was loud if she was alone. Or at milking time. But my Alpine/Nubi was just about as loud. My quietest goat right now is one of my pure Nubis. She has the sweetest voice and I call her name and "maaaaaa" to her TRYING to get her to answer, but she only maaaaaas occasionally, and very softly.
