I have a goat that is 11 years old. He has been neutered since 1month old. He has all of a sudden grew a huge beard. He now sprays himself with his urine and licks it. He wants to hump everything that moves including our rabbits, ducks and even makes passes at my small dog. He has never acted like this before. His buddy is the same age and is also neutered. He doesnt act like this. The other goat drives him crazy with the mounting. Is it some kind of defficiency in his diet?
why is he acting like this?

You do mean "Years" and not "months" ???
I am no help either. But I was always under the impression that inorder for them to spray urine, they had to acheive some sort of an erection, which reguires atleast one testicle.
But after 11 years, I doubt he grew testicles back. So I have no idea.

Did something change like adding females? Smelling the females around would probably do it for a wether.

Is the male friend new? It seems strange that after all these years he would do it but certainly anything is possible with livestock.

Sounds like you should clip his beard . Maybe you should get some interesting things to play with .. What is humping ????

No he is not new. I got them both together when they were a month old. I had them both neutered then. The only thing is that my muskovies are 7 months old now and beginning to mate. Could that be what is causing this. But how did he all of a sudden grow such a huge beard. Thats why i was thinking something in his body has changed.
