    A group of baby Nigerian Dwarf Goats had a fun day outside, playing on the playground and taking turns going down the slide is pure happy chaos.

    On August 30, 2024, TikTok user Katie Van Slyke (@katievanslyke) shared a video of her adorable goats playing outside and having the time of their lives. Take a look!

    In a three-minute video , we are all happy watching the Nigerian Dwarf Goats play outside, and their time on the slide was the best.

    "You know what I feel like we haven't seen enough of is baby goats going down a slide," the woman behind the camera shares.

    She calls the goats over to the slide, reminding the adult goats who followed that the slide isn't for them.

    "Here come the babies. Everybody go slide now," she shares. And the goats listen.

    The little goats take over the play area where the slide was and they take turns going down the slide. Some were more hesitant than others. Some tried to walk up the slide, others hovered around in the back. But it was all 100% adorable.

    "Evening with the goaties," the video's caption reads, and in the comments, people have a lot of love to share.

    One wrote, "The baby goats are adorable!"

    Another shared, "Buzz is so aggressive with it."

    Someone else added, "Is it just me, or does it seem like the babies tripled in size in a day?"

    One TikTok user wrote, "Goaties! Love them!"

    Another shared, "You need another slide for the other side."

    Facts About Nigerian Dwarf Goats

    We can probably all agree that Nigerian Dwarf Goats are incredibly adorable, especially when they're going down the slide and playing with each other, but do you know much more about them than that? Here are some interesting facts about Nigerian Dwarf Goats.

    According to Goat Journal , Nigerian Dwarf Goats are an American breed developed for "small-scale dairy production and companionship."

    Since they're little goats, they grow to be approximately 75 pounds and come in various colors and patterns. The adult males have heavy beards and horns, and their height to withers for bucks is 17 inches to 23 inches and does are 17 inches to 22.5 inches.

    And, as we can see in the video clip with the little goats, Nigerian Dwarf Goats have a really fun temperament. "Generally gentle and calm, they are gregarious in nature and friendly when raised around people," Goat Journal explains.

    While small, these goats have the same lifespan as a standard-sized goat, which is 15 to 20 years "if well cared for," the site explains. They're also really adaptable to different clients and "husbandry conditions."

    Goat Journal adds that although the goats are small, they "do require fencing that accounts for their small size and propensity to explore."
