| African Pygmy Goats are a miniature breed. They are considered to be more cobby, compact and muscular than the Nigerian Dwarf. Their heads and limbs are short relative to their body lengths. They are very social, good-natured, gentle and curious. They are genetically horned but disbudding and dehorning are allowed in the show ring. This is advisable if they are going to be around children . A polled pygmy goat is considered a disqualification. Pygmies come in a variety of color patterns.
