• Temperament and Socialization: Goats are social herd animals and thrive when kept with other goats. They are intelligent and can be trained, often exhibiting curious and playful behavior.
• Lifespan and Care: With proper care, including good nutrition, shelter, and veterinary attention, goats can live for 10-15 years. Regular hoof trimming and parasite control are essential aspects of their care.
• Versatile Breeds: Various goat breeds exist, each with different characteristics suited for milk production, meat, or fiber. Common dairy breeds include Nubian, Alpine, and Saanen.
