William our Boer billy and the Boer male kids all have a shout as though they are being killed when they want our attention but thats what they  do and we accept that as part of keeping them

I guess it is easier for those of us that have them in fields away from close neighbours to deal with the bleating, have been thinking today that if ours were in the garden near neighbours fences I guess it could rustle feathers (especially in towns and not in the countryside) if neighbours didnt' sign up for 'the good life'!

It's not often I say mine are well behaved, but it sounds like I'm lucky, especially since we made a shelter (literaly like a giant table) I turn them out in the morning and tend to forget they are there (yes I do check on them) but never hear them, they just come and stand by the gate in the evening, no noise.
when inside if they are hungry they will bleat when I go in, but I try and keep hay in the racks.
There again I think Toggs are very placid up to some breeds, and I don't go out every time if I do hear them calling, just a sneaky look out of a window or round a corner, they would soon learn how to get 'mums' attention, and what's more fun than keep having 'mum' running out to attend your every whim?
