Do goats make good pets?
I say yes! Goats are actually really smart and can be super fun to have on the farm! In my mind, it’s no difference between asking for a pig or a cow – which a lot of farm kids have!
What is a female goat called?
Learning new animal facts is always a good idea. Female goats are called nannies.
