Yay! I'm so glad Snickers (now Snarl) found a good home. I hope he works out very well for you. It'll be fun for you guys to be able to start packing right away instead of having to wait for babies to grow up. If your other goats are younger, then Snickers (sorry, Snarl) will almost certainly be the boss goat and he may be pretty mean to them for a while until they accept him as the leader. Don't worry about it too much. Goats usually work these things out within a couple of weeks and it's rare for anyone to be injured. Just make sure he doesn't dominate the shed or feeders to the point where the other goats can't access food or shelter. I usually spread hay around in several places if a goat is dominating, and I usually try to have two shelters per three goats unless all three are really good buddies.
Good luck and I hope you all get along famously. Oh, and I have Grinder. I just accidentally named him Sputnik.
If you ever want to come to Rye or the Pueblo area and go for a hike or drive, we'll do it! It would be fun to teach Snarl to drive. He's only been hooked up once for a few minutes with his brother Sputnik and he did well.
