Pygmy Goats

Pygmies are the smallest breed of goat in the world. Even though they are small, they are useful livestock in many settings. They can be ideal for a small suburban or rural homestead. They don’t require much space; they efficiently turn forage and hay. They are easy to handle and rarely aggressive; even the bucks are sweet natured.

Quality is the key word, rather than quantity. But for their size, pygmies can produce quite a lot. Pygmy milk is amazing. It’s very rich, high solids, very sweet and stays fresh, if handled properly, for weeks.
