Very cute ;D But he's not a monkey, Roxy, he's a goat ;D
-
He's gorgeous :love: Love the marking's on his wee face !
So cute
-
Oh my, hes a beauty whats his name?
I want one,two,three,four......................................
Im so jealous
where are my tissues
-
He is Finlay.
Right I will parcel him up, along with his Dad, and how about his brother and sister ........there you go, an instant family of 4!!!
He is very mischievious, climbing, into everything. He insists on walking alongside the wheelbarrow every morning, quite a long way down the field to the muckheap. He introduced himself to the postman yesterday, and the farmer down the lane (chewed the bottom of his jacket, but he did say he was a smashing little goat!) Its a shame because his mum rejected him, he has no one to play with. We have Lily the female who is a few weeks older, but her mum is not keen on her hanging out with Finlay.....so I suppose I am his best friend.

He's absolutley gorgeous! I daren't show Jay - he'll be round to get him, you know how he loves that colouring...
-
He's lovely! Love his colours :)
-
He is adorable Roxy- I can see why you are tempted to keep him! He looks like he's full of mischief!

Little Blue - you are trying to part with Max, are you not?!!!! Now, I may be wrong, but having Finlay would be defeating the object - unless you and Jay were thinking of eating him ;)
Finlay is a right Mummys boy. I am trying to get him to mix with the other goats, instead of being with me, but when I took him down the field to see his Granny Molly and little Lily, he hid behind my boots, and reminded me of a shy toddler!! I think Lily would probably run round with him, but Finlay went off on his own, and played. He is staying out in the field on his own (while I am around) and seems to prefer his own company - and climbing up the dry stone walls, and jumping on and off the muck heap. He has some spring when he jumps up the tall walls to the top in one go.
-
no, there's no meat on something that small... (!!) ;) ;D
Maybe Max and Finlay would play together - M is a great baby sitter.
-
Right I will send Finlay over on the Transpeak Bus - tell the driver to put him off at Matlock :)
-
He is soo cute, amazing markings - what breed is he?
-
no, I'll send Max up to you - there's more room at yours!
the littl'uns have been stood over him today, chewing his ears ...
-
he is cracking!!! :)

Finlay is from our pygmy goats .....they were some I rescued, so as far as I know, not registered. Will try and put a pic up of our billy .....we have used him on the pygmies, and also small dairy breeds, and have had some lovely coloured kids. Unfortunately we now have two of Bobbys daughters, so really need to think about swapping him for an unrelated billy.
