"NPGA Breed Standard" to let the learning begin. Of course, we also need a personal perspective about the pygmy goat, from a breeder. So, Tara provided this photo and writing.

"I absolutely love my Pygmy Goats, they are by far my favorite breed of goat. My favorite characteristic about them is by far their appearance! I love how small and compact they are. One of my favorite features I look for when choosing a good Pygmy is their head and chest. It's extremely hard to find good chests and heads on Pygmies. I just love the chests on Pygmies. It just shows how awesomely wide and deep they can be. And their faces are so expressional. Not only do they need nice wide heads and jaws, but it just seems to me that their faces can tell you exactly what they are thinking.
I have owned Pygmies for 5 years now...But I have not only had Pygmies but I have had experience with a few other breeds and I wouldn't trade my Pygmies for anything. They are part of my past, present, and most definitely my future.
Pygmy Goats are like potato chips...You can't have just one!"
