He has the quietest voice of all my goats, which is very interesting to me. LaMancha may be the best choice in the suburban setting after all.

:lol:

Congrats Monique! He's a beauty! Er, a handsome guy. Yup, he should get the job done just fine. Munchies are known to have a somewhat higher butterfat content than Obers, so I think you made the right choice!

Munchies???? :gig I may have to give him a third name....Mister Buck, Mister Stinky, and....Mister Munchie! I posted another pic of him somewhere, but can't find it now. It was to show someone his house.

eta: Nevermind, I looked at my uploads, and it is somewhere on ss.

eta again: Here it is, post #28: http://www.sufficientself.com/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=89284#p89284

Out of all my goats (Saanen & Lamancha except for 1), I have a little guy that was just an 'adorable' buy as a baby this spring, he's a Mini Nubian..... & everyone makes their own noise, but he takes the cake! My Lamancha boys sound usually like a little child eating food saying "Mmmmmmmmmmmm" in a relativelly low tone. But Nestor my Mini Nubian screams "MAAAAAAAAAA, MAAAAAAAAA"! You'd think everytime it's feeding time he's "starving" :rolleyes: :lol:
