1. Kids will be kids

[tblue37]

4. But the big brown fella who spends the most time up there is no kid! nt

[Brother Buzz]

7. Tell that to the big brown fella

He's a kid at heart, and he's loving it.

[TinkerTot55]

40. Heh!

"He" has a milk sack with two teats......kinda think "he" is probably the mom of the twin kids there.
But they're all having a blast.

[TexasTowelie]

2. I'm going to grow up to be a Republican

sayeth the Kid Goat as he looks forward to old age.

3. It's a livin.' nt

[pinboy3niner]

5. I knew ewe would post this

[tblue37]

6. Isn't a ewe a sheep? nt

[pinboy3niner]

9. I certainly AM NOT a sheep!

Shame on ewe for even suggesting such a thing!

[tblue37]

10. I swear, pinboy--you are incorrigible! nt

[A HERETIC I AM]

13. Then why are you up in a tree?

And don't say "Harold".

That's just a lamb excuse.

[pinboy3niner]

17. To hide from the goats

D'oh!

[A HERETIC I AM]

18. I see. I thought it might be because you were attempting to perch and/or nest.

"Notice they do not so much fly as plummet."

[tblue37]

22. Won't do you any good. Those little suckers just love to jump and climb up on things.

[tblue37]

30. Are you still hiding? I posted a bunch of pics of goats in trees for you,

so it will do you no good at all to stay up in that tree.

[tblue37]

8. Come on, people--watch these kids. It's super cute! (The ending is, too, BTW!) nt

[MuseRider]

11. I think I should build one of these

for my goats. How fun!

[tblue37]

12. You have goats? That *would* be fun! nt

[MuseRider]

14. I do

and there is nothing more fun than goats. LOVE them.

[tblue37]

16. Oh, I think goats are adorable. I love when a whole bunch of them are staring at something,

and then when it moves they all move their heads and eyes at the same time, in perfect sync, as though they are all one mind. Kinda spooky, but also very cool and very cute.

I also love their overwhelming need to get up on top of things. It reminds me of cats' need to get into any box, sink, drawer, or whatever that is open in their vicinity. I often watch videos of little kids jumping up on their siblings, their parents, their people--anything and everything.

[MuseRider]

19. I have 2 right now

a Pygmy and a Dwarf Nigerian. We are looking for 2 kids this spring. They are like dogs, we take walks around the farm. It is great. They are awesome.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

24. I am soooo jealous!!!

I love all goats, but I sure wish I could have a little bitty dwarf goat, with floppy ears.

Soooooo cute!!

[surrealAmerican]

15. Now I want a long piece of sheet metal ...

... and I don't have goats, or even a yard, and it would probably frighten my dogs.

[shenmue]

20. Yay!

Me luv teh goaty woats.

Nice to have something to be silly about today.

[Brigid]

21. Still the funniest goat video ever:

[tblue37]

23. I really think the one in the OP is funnier (and cuter). nt

[AngryOldDem]

38. That's me at work most days anymore. n/t

[progressoid]

43. Bwahahahaaa.

[pokerfan]

25. Don't forget

the fainting goats!

[tblue37]

27. Those goats make me very sad, especially since humans deliberately breed them

to have this debilitating disorder.

I much prefer the goats in tress that I posted above. They are healthy and competent--and very funny!

On edit: Can you imagine how troubling and stressful it must be for the fainting goats, especially since they don't lose consciousness when they seize up, but are paralyzed for 10-15 seconds at a time.

Can you imagine how your life would be constrained if every time you took delight in something (i.e., got excited about something), you seized up and remained paralyzed for 10-15 seconds at a time? (Wouldn't you start trying not to get excited about anything? But these poor animals probably cannot even make that choice.)

And then there are the humans who deliberately startle them all the time, for no reason other than to see them seize up.

[pokerfan]

36. I didn't realize that they were intentionally bred for that disorder

Now I feel bad.

[OrwellwasRight]

26. I luf teh goatz!!!

So cute!

[Hekate]

28. When it comes time to separate the sheep from the goats, can I go with the goats?

I kid you not.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

29. I just found this compilation :D

and fainted from adorableness

[tblue37]

44. Love it. Thanks. (I crack up over how blase those pigs are about goats on their backs.) nt

[passiveporcupine]

31. Sorry, but as a goat owner, I find this to be seriously dangerous.

They could easily slice a leg open as they slide down the edge of the metal. There are many wafer ways to enjoy the frolicking of goats. I would never let my goats play on a dangerous toy like this. Nor would I a child.

[tblue37]

35. Is the metal edge thin enough to cause such damage?

Anyway, if it is dangerous, then I hope no one else uses such a toy for their goats, but I can't help enjoying the sight of these cute creatures playing, since no one gets hurt in the video--and I hope no one gets hurt afterward, either.

[MuseRider]

39. That was what I was wondering.

Surely there is a way to treat that edge so it would not hurt them.

I spent a good hour wondering about that since I think my two need another toy.

[valerief]

32. This is a hoot! nt

[Isoldeblue]

33. They've got their own little

amusement park there! Love it!

[iemitsu]

34. I was unaware that such cool goat toys existed.

They are sure silly creatures.

[btrflykng9]

37. Trampoline Anyone?

[Spitfire of ATJ]

42. Better this than a convertible top.

[greiner3]

41. I could have watched that for a lot longer than a minute;

It's just after 4:20 and good thing I hate Hot Pockets;

"Hot Pockets recalled after meat found ‘unfit for human food’"

[Feral Child]

45. I am SO going to make 1 of those

[Xyzse]

46. Goats are amazing

[catbyte]

47. LOVE IT! King of the Hill Goat Style
