​About: ​ Richard was purchased as a baby with multiple other goats as family pets. As goats require a very specific and controlled diet to remain healthy, Richard's owners did not research what having pet goats would entail. The herd started dying rapidly, as they were not receiving proper care as babies. As the sole survivor, Richard's previous owners reached out to FARRM to ask if we could intervene and save him before he too passed away. Richard arrived at FARRM quite ill with chronic diarrhea (from a high cocci load. With the proper medical intervention, Richard made a quick recovery and remains a healthy and happy FARRM resident!                                                        

Richard now and forever holds the title of the resident troublemaker here at FARRM. If we had to describe Richard in three words, they would be "Stop! No! Don't!" He makes it his sole mission to open every gate he can, headbutt anyone in his path regardless of species or size, and wreak havoc at all hours of the day.

 

He is intelligent, mischievous, and naughty. Richard does not believe in lounging around the barnyard or snuggling with his buddies, instead he believes in scheming, wrestling, and breaking things! Richard can be found at any given time smashing the barn walls with his horns, trying to open up the gate to the feed shed, and trying to escape. Just for fun. ​
