She only stands about 14 inches at the back! Right now she is still in her little cage but this evening I will put her in her own little pen until she gets more used to being here and then I will turn her out....well maybe....if she would wonder off too far I'm afraid the coyotes will eat her! So I may keep her in her pen.
We have spent the past few hours making friends! I have named her "Gertie Mae" Hehehehe! Why that name? Well, when I was little my grandparents had a little goat and her name was Gertie Mae! :) Here is a little Youtube video to show you how they faint! Hehehehe! I'm sure in the coming months I will hav plenty of my own fainting videos to show you! :)

Do show us pictures as this baby grows up.
Gertie Mae the fainting goat...how cute is that!
She is adorable, and her name is PRICELESS!!!
How darling she is! Very small, a miniature breed? What a doll!
How cute! You have your own personal petting zoo right in your own backyard.
Your Gertie is a cutie! I can't wait to see her grow up.

Kristie,
Gertie Mae is adorable. I have raised lots of goats in the past. She will be much happier and get in lots less mischief if you can find another goat for a buddy for her. Also, if you have any flowers or fruit trees that you want to keep, you will need to get them fenced. Goats love flowers and trees. I know, mine killed all my fruit trees one time. LOL I was at town. They got out and had quite a party. I'm only telling you all this so you can be prepared. I love goats and hope to have a few pygmies again some day. They have such wonderful personalities and make the best pets. Good luck with your sweet little girl. Winona
My sister had a fainting goat she named "Special Ed." He was adorable, followed her around like a little puppy.
I have never seen a fainting goat before ,I think that would scare the life out of me even though it's normal.She sure is pretty ,good luck with her .
