Can a sheep and a goat live together? i hear they dont get on?prove me wrong...or not!?

Answers:
Yes they live well with each other. I grew up in the farm and we had all sorts of goats and sheep. There is a wide variety. They got along well. Actually the goats got along better with the sheep than with other goats. They followed the sheep too when we herded them. Some billy goats are hard headed but they stand no chance in a fight with a ram. Anyway i have never heard of them not getting along, i will keep an eye to hear more too.

I had a sheep, a goat and a bull live together! They were the awesome threesome.What one didn't think of to do...the other 2 did.They got along great.I did get all 3 when they were babies, which may have helped a great deal. I had no problems what so ever.

Old West ranchers used to mix goats in with the sheep because they considered the goats much more levelheaded than the sheep. Whenever there was a problem, like a storm or a predator, the sheep would cluster around the goats to calm down, instead of running off in a panic. I have a friend who raises miniature goats and she also has a few dwarfed sheep, emus, and a miniature donkey, all in the same 1/2 acre fenced yard. They get along just fine.

It is okay to put them together, but do not i repeat DO NOT put bucks and rams together. The buck will rear up and fight, rams arent so fair, they just charge and can really injur a buck. However they have completely different needs, goat mineral (vitamin supplementation) will kill a sheep because of the copper, which goats need, it will kill sheep. They require much more work to keep them healthy than meets the eye. Hope it helps
