Hello Warren
So how many do you have now.?
Are you keeping Sheep and Goats or did the Goats win?
Just like with a good horse or dog, they have to have "Personality and trust in people" to make any animal get along with you.
Otherwise your just raising a meat animal.
Even if you just want them for barn pets you need to have them willing to be handled and friendly.
I work mine everyday even if it nothing more than follow around and eat or they will check and see if they can "Help"
Lunch break is usually spent with goats under foot and laying down eating the lunch too. (chewing their cud).
The thing is it is training for trail work, they learn to stick close.
Send some pictures.
Happy Trails
