I put the pic up, because looking at your goat in your signature, it looks a similar breed. These are Anglo Nubian.  Believe it or not, my friend got them at a car boot sale!!! They were only kids though.

Yep, they are twins. They must be 6 now.You cannot sell animals at car boots.  I assume they were in the back of a van or something, out of sight.  My friend has pygmies, and she saiad  Cain and Abel were fine at first, then they bossed the pygmy goats, and  with they growing so big, she could not cope with the little goats being hurt maybe.Thats why they came here.
