A little later we decided we wanted to get what is called a gray agouties and they have solid black socks that go up to their knees, their main body is a salt and pepper gray, and they have a black mask on their face and frosted ears. They usually have a darker mask on their face and then a light-colored ring around their eyes. So we have those. We also have brown agouties, which are the same description only in a brown tone. We have solid brown, we have reds, they’re called red, they’re really reddish-brown color. I’m trying to think what other colors we have here. I guess that covers it.

Tammy: Now tell me what do you think the…You talked about them being really smart. I mean I know that they have a wide variety of personalities. Can you tell me kind of what a pygmy goat’s like to be around?

Bobby: Well a lot of it depends on how much interaction they have with their owners. If there are people who spend a tremendous amount of time with their little pygmy goat, their pygmy goat will be as interactive as your dog or cat could be in your family. They learn tricks. I’ve talked to people who have taught them the clicker to teach them to do things and basically what they do is they take the little pygmy goat, something that it does naturally, and whenever it’s actually doing what it does naturally, they click and after a while, the little goat will start to do it when it hears the click rather than hear the click while it’s doing it.

Tammy: And what kind of things do they teach them to do that way?
