They are a relatively new breed and are earless. Some people get freaked out by this and I've heard everything from "did they get frost bite?" to "why did you cut their ears off?" but nope they just naturally are earless.The fanciers have specific names for the shapes of the tiny-but-there ears including "airplane" and "elf" ears. Nibbles - the little one is a "mini-mancha." At least some of babies always have the longer Nigerian Dwarf ears as that is what she is crossed with (La Mancha x Nigerian Dwarf). Some people think it makes these goats look weird but someone said, more frequently, that the earlessness makes you look into their eyes more. <br />:-)Ohiofarmgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02606563929369721111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7789865586418282697.post-88546986319700231442013-05-30T15:42:05.887-04:002013-05-30T15:42:05.887-04:00I've just noticed your Goats don't have ea...I've just noticed your Goats don't have ears, is that a special breed?
