A Nigerian Dwarf goat is between 17" and 21" at the shoulder when grown. They are primarily used as a dairy breed, and produce large amounts of milk for their size. ND goats are fairly tame by nature, and will become very tame with a small amount of effort. Some breeders bottle feed all kids to maintain a very tame herd. A tame nature is common in dairy breeds, as goats must be handled daily when collecting milk. This trait has been selectively bred into Nigerian Dwarf goats.
