A wether is a neutered goat! Why do we have TWO of them? Our baby alpaca, Hope, lost her mom and new baby sister last year. She was so depressed we wanted to get her a friend to play with. So... we got goaties! Our kids are 5 months old and will weigh about 220 lbs when full grown. These toggenberg/alpine crosses are fun and personable and gave Hope just the spark she needed to be a young alpaca again. Plus, they give her someone to boss around! They are leash trained and act like goofy dogs! We hope to add a milking female to our herd soon!

That is nice that is worked out that a couple of goats did the trick! We all need friends! Guess it just goes to show that good friends come in all shapes, sizes and colors:)
