Nigerian Dwarf Goats: Top Five Reasons to Raise 

After 60 years with goats, I just got our first Nigerians. We love them.

You didn’t include the cuteness, friendliness, intelligence, entertainment factors. I now have 7 and love them so much.

True...Dey don't smell,I went to a goat market in my country (Nigeria ),and I could breathe .

I got my goat at a day old. She couldn’t stand up or walk so she needed help. Everyone thought she was going to die but she’s almost 11 months old now. She’s the sweetest goat. She thinks I’m her mom so she still lives in the house 😄

Omg on my way to Walmart to grab one

Thank you for your content! Now I need to get my hubby on board! 😂

Great video guys! I'm already a fan of Nigerian Dwarfs but if I weren't, I would be after seeing your reasons why! Awesome!

Way too funny!! That Charo is an instigator! Thank you for sharing :)

At one time in the past you posted the 'Goat' course. Thank you. I am in the process of doing the meat goat section. I have actually learned a lot from it.

Aww... I want a goat in my lap too!

I like it very much

Great summary why you made your decision. - Alex

O my gosh I just saw this video I loveeeee you guys can’t wait to bring Sweet Pea home 😘😘😘😘

This is so cute. I have the same reasons as you for getting NDG.

I’ve been trying to find some for sale. We are wanting to get our herd started on our homestead here in north central Arkansas. Great video.

Cool

Hello, what plants are toxic to your Nigerians? Are ticks a problem? I am also in Missouri..

I learned some new stuff on the goats ! Two of are goats are Nigerian Dwarf and Fainting goat cross . I really don't know the reason for the cross . We got ours because my wifes friend gave us a really good deal . We mainly just wanted them to eat down the overgrown areas .

I use to raise Nubian when my children were little. Now I have a buck and a doe Nigerian dwarfs. I'm older now and am hoping they will be easier to handle.

Nice video, Do you have a picture/ video/ plans of what you use for a hay feeder?

Hi guys! We’re young conservative homesteaders from CA. we’re looking to move to NW Arkansas within the next few years. So happy I found y’all. ❤️

I think they are fun, I have 2.

Love your list! I so agree, after months of researching all the dairy breeds, Nigerians just made sense for our farm. Isn't it fun to film with goats? LOL if I had a quarter for every time Theo knocked around my camera I could quit my job LOL!

I am going to watch how yall make cheese and soap before we try. LOL

Are they harder to milk because of their size and have you made butter yet ? Thanks

I help people to set up their goat keeping in tropic countries and it really works well. I am unable to figure ot how to set up agoatery here in London. I like goats. I like your goats ...they look beautiful I hope they smell like goats. Nice video. I would like to make goat cheese from them. bloopers comment...comes to mind the saying ...stubborn goats. ha

Thanks for sharing this Information with me. I’m thinking of buying 4 lady goats. Can a doe produce milk if she doesn’t have kids??

I’ve heard these are a good multi purpose goat, good for milk and meat. Thoughts?

Question please are these good grazers for underbrush

Do they normally have a hard time giving birth? I have seen on another channel where it seems they have to heavily assist with all of the births. Thank you.

I am just looking into getting a couple of goat but can't decide between pygmy or Nigerian dwarf i don't plan on milking but with Nigerian dwarfs do you have to milk them? and i assume they are as friendly as each other.

Great video! Your goats are adorable! I’m so sad the the family we were gonna buy our first goats from had a buck today. They only have one dwarf goat. She had her baby today it was a buck. 😢 We were so looking forward to getting our first doe and hoping for twins. I keep searching for 2 females to buy but I can’t find any. All I find are bucks. From what I’ve read taking a male and female aren’t good. Do y’all know if I do get a male would I then need 4 goats? Two girls separated from the two boys? I am studying and learning all I can. I haven’t seen clear directions on this. I am wondering should I take the buck born today? It would be our first goat. We wanted to get goats for milk, cheese, soap, candles and lotion. But since I’ve been learning there seems to be a market for breading them. I see many people looking to buy but no goats. Please if y’all know anyone near Mississippi, Louisiana or even Alabama who has babies for sale I’d love to know. Thank you!

My mother and I rescued two of these guys from getting dumped off because we had good space and a way to keep them safe as opposed to god knows what. However, due to several circumstances we can't keep them permanently. The two of them (inseparable) are so sweet and lovable so we are desperately trying to find a good home so someone can take them and raise the sweethearts like they deserve. Do you have any suggestions for what I can do?

were looking into goats like you we want dairy + we want meat ,,,,,have you tryed it? and how do they get along with chickens? and thanks for shairing

Hi so I just got 2 goats. I really dont know the age but they def are twins. They hang together like glue. They are also really spooked and frightened to hang around me. Is this normal? Clearly they have not been around humans highly touched and raised. How long in your opinion will it take for them to get comfortable without scattering quickly when I get close?

How much land do you think is required for a small heard?

Are they safe in snow and rain

What is the best 👌 goat 🐐 books 📚 to read 📚 from you all's expertise? List at least 3 😁. Thx....

Looking for some in Europe but no luck 🙁 only pygymy and some other unsure breed...is it lots of hassle to bring live animals to Europe? Grown up in farm then moved to town and back on farm soon but no luck with nigerian dwarf goats 😕

The black one is a feisty one! Their so cute

How much are the baby goat's, $100?

How much do 11 month old Nigerian dwarf goats normally weigh? Mine weighs 30 pounds but she was sick last week and lost 5 pounds 😭 I’m just curious what they are supposed to weigh.

Do female Nigerian dearf goats need to be milked? What happens if you never milk them?

Where are you at.

I see a #6 reason...THEIR EARS!!!

How do you prevent inbreeding?

Do they not have horns?

how loud are they?

How do they compare to a Pygmy?

Please tell me how to import nigerian goat to pakistan. I want to buy it

Want 3 whethers to raise as pets

I feel bad,because am a Nigerian and just finished eating Nigerian goat.

ACK! Stop them from eating Josie!

Do you sale goats? Are you living In the Ozarks?I do , I would be interested in buying 2 goats from you

We Nigerians don't even appreciate these goats here.. we over look the benefits and keep them for only meat.

Your goats all look like they have fishtail.

They aren't technically meat goats, but they are still delicious.

I do wish Americans weren't so backward, with temperatures. The rest of the world has adapted to Celsius, I am sure if they tried, they could do it too. 😂
