when do goats grow a beard?

19 years ago

Hey again, I have another question about Reese my goat. He has started to grow little long hairs under his chin lately, only a few..but they are quite long. Will he grow a beard? Do only certain kinds of goats grow one? He will be 2 in Feb. and he's a pygmy. thanks..

My pygmy's are 7 years old now and their beards are still in progress like their horns. I have been told that the horns keep growing and I think the beard does. My does beard is longer and fuller than my wethers! They are twins. His horns are just starting to turn under in a curl.
