1. we have a pigmy goat, her brother died, but we've had it living with chickens, ducks, and geese. we have had quite a few illnesses etc. and she actually protects the other animals! she even drove away a fox the ducks also attack the geese sometimes but the goat will always protect the geese!! if if is young and can be raised like our goat from very young chances are most animals will be ok, if it is aggressive though, i wouldnt reccomend keeping it with any other animals hope i could help :) have fun with your goat
2. Goats sem to get along with all others in a pasture and are used as companions for horses.
3. Pygmy goats are herd animals, so they need company. They get along with other goats, horses, sheep, etc!
4. we used to have 2 pygmy goats and we kept them in a pen with our rabbits. they got along well, but the rabbits dug holes in the pen and we were over run with baby bunnies
5. Goats will get along with other goats, sheep, horses, cows, ducks, chicken, geese, and other foul....you can also get a Pyrenees, Llama, or Donkey, but get them when they're young because a large llama or donkey might kill a goat that they're not familiar with. Since your goat is a pygmy I would suggest not to get an animal such as a horse or cow. they are so large they might accidentally hurt the little thing.
