The nickname for a goat or goat is of great importance. With the help of the chosen nickname, the owners single out a new kid, form a special look at it and lay the psychological foundations for the formation of a behavioral module. Regularly referring to the kid with a nickname, which has diminutive suffixes, implies that the baby remains a newborn even after reaching adulthood.

Human names
Many owners doubt whether the kids can be called by human names. There is nothing wrong with this, but you should avoid the names of close friends and relatives who often visit.
If guests find that their names and the goat's nickname are the same, then this will turn into unpleasant consequences. This applies to those cases when, in order to name a goat, they use rare, unusual for this, female or male names.
It is not advised to name animals by the names of friends, girlfriends or relatives with whom the owners are in a quarrel. After a while, the grievances will pass, and the kid will get used to the nickname and become a reminder of difficult times.
Advice! Do not give the same name to the goat and the baby at the same time. If at the moment of the name it may seem funny, then over time it will become clear that the choice was wrong.
Tips for choosing a nickname
The choice of a nickname is an important step in the relationship between a pet and an owner. After an animal receives a nickname, it ceases to be a faceless individual. A goat with a well-chosen nickname often becomes a family member for the owners of the courtyard. Housewives are especially close to goats.
Experienced breeders advise you to follow some rules:
- The nickname must be short. Complicated and long-spoken names will inevitably be shortened into a short name.
- Do not use double nicknames, as well as nicknames that are already in the herd. If you add the prefix "junior" or "junior" to the name, then over time it will create confusion, none of the names will take root.
- It is impossible to distort the nickname, which was given initially, if the kid has managed to get used to it.
Information! The kids remember the address better if it is voiced during feeding.
It is important for the owner to navigate himself in the names of goats. If 3-4 goats live in the yard, then this is not difficult, but if the courtyard has several dozen animals, then it can be difficult to remember the names. In this case, you need to choose for yourself the criteria that you should always rely on when choosing a name.
