The term used for a baby goat is "kid." Kids are born after a gestation period of about five months and are usually able to stand and walk shortly after birth. They are known for their playful and curious nature, often engaging in jumping and climbing behaviors. Kid goats are typically weaned from their mothers at around 8 to 12 weeks old, transitioning to a diet of grass, hay, and grains. Raising goats is popular in agriculture not only for their milk and meat but also for their companionship and unique personalities.
