| African Pygmy Goats are an actual miniature breed and not to be mistaken for a small mix breed or Nigerian dwarf. They are considered to be more cobby,compact and muscular than the Nigerian Dwarf. Their heads and limbs are short relative to their body lengths. They are very social, good-natured, gentle and curious. A true Pygmy is genetically horned but disbudding or dehorning is a common practice. This is advisable if they are going to be around children or in the show ring. A polled pygmy goat is considered a disqualification and most likely a mix breed. Pygmies come in a variety of color patterns but are not spotted, tri colored nor do they have blue eyes or floppy ears. Animals advertised as such would actually be a mix or a completely different breed.

They are registered by the National Pygmy Goat Association(NPGA), American Goats Society and International Dairy Goat Registry. |
