Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Backpack Hunting More on the packgoats

We tried goats but for our purposes, llamas worked better. Goats are darn good packers, too, though. One thing I did learn was that I'll never again have goats with horns. They're hard on fences and will just stand and butt the sides of a barn all day long. They knocked the siding right off the barn.
They're a lot more personable than llamas. Llamas don't want to be touched. They hate having their heads or feet touched. They'll do the job and do it well but they're not friendly. Goats, otoh, love to have their ears scratched. They can be your buddies...to the point of being a PIA sometimes.
