Immutable Goat Facts

Our Nigerians are quiet about 22 hours a day. When it's time to feed they start to sing.
And then after they are fed Zamia and Rosemary continue until they are milked.
Rosie has a particularly obnoxious bellow. And Zamia is pretty bad too.

Most of the nigis I have been around are at shows and they are usually tied waiting for their ring and boy are they a noisy group. Maybe it is just the setting.

Jr's are usually very vocal when you are at or in the show ring.
We've had some that yelled the whole time they were in the ring.

My Nubian/Saanan doe is LOUD. Just LOUD. And can be classified under screaming goat like you find on Youtube some days. The Nubian doe has this deep beller that sounds like a man yelling "help", "no" and "hi" and she talks a lot to us but not so much loud and obnoxious unless she is stressed like when her buckling was weaned.... Her buckling (dam raised for 16 weeks on the nose) is LOUD. He has yet to lose his voice after 2 weeks of screaming. He is weaning though. The buckling we bought as his buddy is also loud but also was just pulled from his mom when we took him. My Alpines are quiet and when they do make noise it is to show their love and they have almost guinea pig like noises! I love that!

Elvis is VERY noisey especially when he thinks it's time to be fed. NOW. He cries every time he catches a glimpse of me.... Baby hardly ever talks.
Also, whatever number we are on- goats think they should be allowed in the house and try to make themselves at home whenever the door is left open a split second to long

Elvis also makes noise when he's eating. The sweetest little noises like he's so excited to have food and it's the best food in the world

My boys do this as well. I love their little grunts and groans while eating

34. Just when you have things figured out, goats show you that you will never know as much as you think you do!
