Yes. The does with horns will be dominant over the does that are polled, but problems between the two should be minimal to non-existent as long as there is enough fodder to go around for both groups.

What are goats related to?
Goats are related to sheep for obvious reasons such as hoofs and horns, tails and fur (wool) but some think they are related to deer (more than they are to sheep) because deer have the same tail and they grow horns and they also have hooves while sheep have wool and deer have fur but goats don't have wool they have fur. Goats could also be related to horses through the hooves gene but that would be a short scientific reason why. We all originate from something!

Can you pasture your bulls with dairy goats?
Yes as they are both ruminants.Another Opinion:No. Your bulls will have a hey-day with the goats especially if the bulls see them as not part of they're not a part of the herd. By "hey-day" I mean you'll get a bunch of goats with some injuries, and even some fatalities of the bulls are really too rough with them, because they will head-butt them and go after them when they get in the same pasture or corral with them. Your bulls may seem nice and calm now, but they won't be too nice to your goats if they don't recognize them as part of the herd. So if I were you, I would keep your goats and bulls separated. Sure they're both ruminants and both eat grass, but that's nothing compared to how your bulls will behave when goats get in with them.And are we really talking about bulls here? Are you sure they're bulls? Here's a tip: don't go by the fact that they have horns they're bulls, because that is definitely not true. Look between the hind legs: if there's an udder, then these "bulls" are in fact cows, not bulls. If there's a hairy sheath under the belly and a pair of testicles hanging in the back-legs, then they're bulls.

Why to some goats have horns?
Defense Defense is only one use of a goat's horns. This also applies to sheep. Their horns have blood vessels running through them, and the horns help to regulate and cool the blood's temperature, especially on hot days. It is much like a dog panting or us sweating. Having their horns is very important. Many goats (and sheep) are hornless. This is because they were disbudded (horns were surgically removed) or they are polled (horns didn't grow in due to breeding for that purpose). Disbudding is painful and should be done by a qualified veterinarian only, as unexpected side effects can occur (especially infection). Polled attributes can result in other mutations in babies, although they are rare.
Can you give sheep and goats the same wormer?
