Pygmy Goats!
We have 5 pygmy goats up for sale!
We would ask that two of them stay together seeing as they have been together for the last 4 years! One is a whether and the other a female! Please contact me for specific info on these two! ( Only serious inquires please)
The other three are mother with two daughters! Daughters were born around memorial day! Very cute one is brown and the other white! Mom is brown and white! Would prefer to see these girls go to a home together if possible! we are asking $100 each so $300 for all 3 of them! Want to see them go to a good home! They all have their horns but are very friendly! No ones ever been butted by them! The mama is a little on the big side for a pygmy! Please contact me if interested! Again Only serious inquires please! We are setting the price firm right now for these three! we are interested in trading for other livestock or something else if we feel its right for us so don’t be shy to make offers for trades but the price is firm for now! thanks for your interest and I can send pics to those who are interested!
Goats! Goats! GOATS! We’ve got goats! Five goats! But! We! Will! Only! Sell! Them! In! Sets! Sets of goats! They’re brown! And white! They’re brown and white! They’re goats! They’re giant pygmy goats!
Based on this, I’d be worried the goats might be a little excitable. Maybe whoever takes the goats can offer the sellers an alternative form of punctuation.
*Full disclosure: I added in three exclamation marks to the original post; the others were all there to begin with. I’m sure they just forgot them in their goat-induced frenzy.
That’s cheating.
Maybe they’re excited because they’ve figured out what they want and what they need, and got some books too.
*GASP* I know IF’s Secret Identity! I’m in big trouble.
What the hell is a whether? “One is a whether and one is a female” wtf?
A wether goat is a goat that has been castrated. I’m assuming that’s what the person meant. Very, very emphatically.
It’s where the word bellwether comes from.
A wether used to lead a flock often wears a bell. Since the bellwether leads the flock, the word has also come to mean “a leading indicator or predictor.”
Isaac, it’s posts like this that make us miss you so much. 8/
That’s assuming we have ever heard of the term “bellwether”.
“Goats! Goats! GOATS! We’ve got goats! Five goats! But! We! Will! Only! Sell! Them! In! Sets! Sets of goats! They’re brown! And white! They’re brown and white! They’re goats! They’re giant pygmy goats! ”
Funniest. Thing. Ever.
XD I love this blog
“MADNESS?! WE! HAVE! GOOAATTSS!!!”
“Very cute one is brown and the other white!”
So the white one is not very cute?
I know this is an old post an you probably won’t read my comment but I had to telly ou this is my all time favorite post so far. It’s a good thing work is slow today because I was laughing so hard I snorted. The best part is you commentray underneath.
Thank you for making my day.
You’re welcome, Ashlee! Thank you!
I can’t breathe, drmk. I really can’t. I agree with Robin about your comment being the best thing ever. Oh…wait…I did this post wrong. Hang on….
I can’t breathe, drmk! I really can’t! I agree with Robin about your comment being the best thing ever! More emphatic yelling here!
Is it just me, or is Sparky just a touch too excited about livestock?
I am noticing more than a whiff of used car salesman myself.
Too excited? TOO EXCITED?! How can you be TOO EXCITED about GOATS?! Clearly you are just not excited enough. Goats, ghostcat, gooooaaaats! How are you not peeing your pants with excitement?! I know I am!
That’s a lot of exclamation marks! But it could be worse! They could be yelling in CAPS! And they have limited themselves to one exclamation mark at a time! So really, I think Sparky is showing remarkable restraint under the circumstances! Because, come on you guys, it’s goats!
I only want the cute brown one but it would appear I’m required to also pay for her mom and her ugly sister.
Angorella?

Of course one of them could be this goat.
I think Sparkette is off her period!
Overly-excited people really get my goat. For $100 each.
Baaaaaaaaaaaaa!
*whew* Got yesterday’s birthday girls and two close, personal friends of theirs in the box today! Congratulations! Have a few more exclamation marks!!!!!!!!
Oh my gosh!!! I’m in the box!!! I’M IN THE FREAKING BOX!!!!
BEST. BIRTHDAY. EVER!
And here I thought nobody got the What’s Up Doc reference…
Happy Birthday!
Thanks, Windy! Being punched will be the perfect ending to a birthday weekend.
Make offers! But the price is firm!
Well, maybe not super firm! Just like the pygmy goat is not actually small!
At least Sparky! is keeping the goats secret until serious inquires! are made. No one wants goats! that have had their photos up all over the interwebs!
Oh my gosh, this is so true! I almost bought a goat once but then I found her myspace page and she had posted all these embarrassing photos of herself so I was just like forget it. I just can’t have that. One day I may run for office and I can’t have people digging up these photos of my goat dancing naked on a table with a lampshade on her head.
Totally. One photo goes out on twitter and suddenly your goat is rendered unsellable on craigslist, and you’re making apologies to the public. All you can hope is that your cow stands by you through all the trouble.
Noni, this is your official invitation to join us on Facebook. 8) Trinket is coming too, in a few weeks.
Whoa! Official Facebook invite!
(Now tell me the exact steps I must take to connect my Facebook to this Facebook official invite senderness)
Noni, on Facebook search for YSaC Friends. Ask to be invited. I will check and invite you as long as you tell me who you are. Actually, I approve all who ask because I can un-approve them if I wish to.
I’ll be waiting!
I can really feel for this Sparky! I know there are times when I just can’t seem to stop shouting!
Oh gods! It’s happening right now! Why am I shouting! Somebody help me! I! CAN’T! STOP! S!H!O!U!T!I!N!G!
Sticks a pacifier ( a cup of java) in Taco’s mouth. There that better.
Here, have some Pudding, Taco.
Only if it’s not on fire.
All I can think of is the Ackroyd-Hanks movie Dragnet and the the P.A.G.A.N. meeting where all! had! to! wear! goat-skin pants!

Goats on the roof!* GOATS! ON! THE! ROOF! Streaming video of GOATS on the roof!
*This place is actually a quaint little market about 20 minutes from where I live. The honestly have goats living on the roof of their store that those with really long arms can pet. Hooray for Canada.
Good thing they’re in Canada. In the U.S., you can get sued for trademark infringement if your business puts goats on the roof.

And that, children, is what is wrong with the world today.
How many exclamation points do you need to make them ‘fainting goats’?
Where can I purchase more exclamation points?????!??!?
I have a serious inquire! Is it ok to stare at these goats?!
Oookay, so I click refresh, and all of a sudden there’s numbers by the comments and the formatting is all hinky. YSaC is borked*! 🙁
*Slash my employer’s outmoded browsing capabilities are borked…
Step right up, if you were in the box today, come and get your Punchity Punch Punch! kelli, Punch! ghostie, Punch! Camille, Punch! Trinket, Punch!
G’Night, William Windsor!
