0:00:12 > 0:00:15- and exercise.- And lots of water, too, don't forget.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19Today, I'm in Castlewellan in Northern Ireland
0:01:19 > 0:01:20to meet Eva and her pet goats.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23I cannot wait! Let's go find them.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36- Hi, Eva.- Hi, Ferne.
0:01:36 > 0:01:37And you must be Mum.
0:01:37 > 0:01:41- Hello.- Hi, Ferne.- Look at all these beautiful little goats and I see one
0:01:41 > 0:01:43with a pink collar.
0:01:43 > 0:01:44- Who's that?- That's Roxie.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46She's my favourite.
0:01:46 > 0:01:47She's gorgeous.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49What type of goat are they?
0:01:49 > 0:01:51They are British Saanens.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53What are they very good for?
0:01:53 > 0:01:56- Milking.- And what else do you do with them?
0:01:56 > 0:01:58We bring them to the shows.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01I bet they win lots of awards.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Eva, what age is Roxie?
0:02:03 > 0:02:06Roxie is five months old.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08That's still quite young, isn't it?
0:02:08 > 0:02:11- Yes.- And can you tell me what a baby goat is called?
0:02:11 > 0:02:12A kid, like me.
0:02:12 > 0:02:16That's right. Baby goats are called kids,
0:02:16 > 0:02:20female goats are called nannies and males are billies.
0:02:20 > 0:02:21I love their white coats.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23They are so soft.
0:02:23 > 0:02:25- I really like their ears because they're floppy.- They are.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28They're floppy and they're very big and long, aren't they?
0:02:28 > 0:02:32Can you tell me what a goat's foot is called?
0:02:32 > 0:02:35They are called hooves and they have two toes.
0:02:35 > 0:02:39That is right. They're really good for climbing, aren't they?
0:02:39 > 0:02:40What noises do goats make?
0:02:40 > 0:02:43- Baa! - Baa!
0:02:43 > 0:02:44Are you going to do it? Baa!
0:02:47 > 0:02:49Eva, what is your favourite thing about having goats?
0:02:49 > 0:02:53I like to see them jumping and being silly.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Very silly. I love them.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Rory, could you tell us some more facts
0:02:57 > 0:02:59about Roxie and her goat friends here?
0:03:00 > 0:03:01Of course, Ferne.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Saanen goats are sometimes called gentle giants
0:03:07 > 0:03:10because they can grow up to be very big goats.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17The Saanen breed is the largest breed of Swiss goat.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19They have white skin and a short white coat.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28The Saanen goat is a dairy goat, which means they make lots of milk.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31You can drink goats' milk and it can be used
0:03:31 > 0:03:33to make lots of food, like cheese.
0:03:45 > 0:03:49Having a pet means that you have to give it a lot of love,
0:03:49 > 0:03:52care and attention and pet goats can be pretty hard work,
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- can't they, Eva? - Yes, I look after them every day.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58What do you need to do to look after your pet goats?
0:03:58 > 0:04:03We need to give them water, food and hay and we need to muck them out.
0:04:03 > 0:04:04That sounds like a lot of work.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08- Can I help you out?- Yes, please, Ferne.- OK. Let's go.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12See you soon, goats.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17Someone's ready. Hello.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21- Who is this? - This is Salubrious.
0:04:21 > 0:04:25Hi, Salubrious. Lovely to meet you. She's beautiful.
0:04:25 > 0:04:30- Why is she in here?- Because we have to put fresh straw in her house.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32That's good. And is this her pen?
0:04:32 > 0:04:34- Yes.- That is amazing.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Look at all of those awards.
0:04:36 > 0:04:37Did your family win all of them?
0:04:37 > 0:04:40Yes, our goats are really good at shows.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43They definitely are, they're champions.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Shall we get it started?
0:04:48 > 0:04:51Nice big handful.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53- Do you want to take this bit?- Yeah.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Wow.
0:05:00 > 0:05:05- And you just shake it? - Yeah.- It makes it nice and soft.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07Can I help you?
0:05:07 > 0:05:11- Yes, please. Come on in. - This is my sister, Vanessa.
0:05:11 > 0:05:16OK. We need to break up all the pieces to make it nice and fluffy.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18This is going to be so cosy.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20Salubrious will love this.
0:05:20 > 0:05:21Yes.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Goats don't like being outside in the rain, do they, Eva?
0:05:24 > 0:05:27No, they don't. They don't even have umbrellas.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29No, they don't have umbrellas.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32It's very important for goats to have both outdoor and indoor areas,
0:05:32 > 0:05:34like this pen.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Saanen goats have very pale skin so it's good that they have shade
0:05:37 > 0:05:40when it's sunny so they don't get sunburned.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Great job, Vanessa and Eva.
0:05:42 > 0:05:43This looks very comfy.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45What do we need to do next?
0:05:45 > 0:05:48We need to give them hay, food and water.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52- Shall we go?- Yes. - Shall we go?- Yes.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56Myself and Vanessa will get the hay.
0:05:57 > 0:05:59What's in the goat meal?
0:05:59 > 0:06:00Barley, maize and oats.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02So is it like a goat granola?
0:06:02 > 0:06:03Yes. They love it.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07How often do you give it to them?
0:06:07 > 0:06:10- Twice a day. Two scoops. - Shall we bring it in?- Yes.
0:06:14 > 0:06:15- Shall we put it in here?- Yes.
0:06:18 > 0:06:19Thank you, Vanessa.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Right, so, what do we need to do next?
0:06:21 > 0:06:23Get the water. Sounds good.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31Do goats drink a lot of water?
0:06:31 > 0:06:35- Yeah.- And how often do you do this?
0:06:35 > 0:06:38We give them fresh water twice a day.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40That's really important, isn't it?
0:06:40 > 0:06:43- Yes.- That looks full enough.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47- Shall we put the water here?- Yes.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Perfect. Right,
0:06:49 > 0:06:53so she's got fresh water, a nice clean bed and lots of food.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Shall we get her in and see if she likes it?
0:06:55 > 0:06:56Come on, Salubrious.
0:06:58 > 0:06:59What do you think?
0:07:01 > 0:07:03I think she likes it a lot.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05- Definitely. - Eva, have we finished?
0:07:05 > 0:07:07We need to give the kids some milk.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10That sounds fun. See you later. Bye, Salubrious.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20So this is where you milk the goats, Eva.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23- And your dad's going to help us. Hiya.- Hello, Ferne.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25Right, shall we get started?
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Daddy's putting the clusters onto Alice.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Wow, look at all the milk going through.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Saanen goats are brilliant dairy goats
0:07:39 > 0:07:41which means that they make loads of milk.
0:07:41 > 0:07:45Look at them go. I can't get over how much milk there is.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48You can just feel it and it's warm.
0:07:48 > 0:07:54Is it warm? Oh, my goodness, it is.
0:07:54 > 0:07:55Shall we take it to the kids?
0:07:55 > 0:07:57- Yes.- They're going to love this.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02Milk time.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06Move over.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Look at this. Because these kids are a bit older,
0:08:12 > 0:08:14they don't need milk from their mothers any more,
0:08:14 > 0:08:17but it's nice to give it to them as a treat sometimes.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20- They really are hungry. - Yes, they are.
0:08:20 > 0:08:25- But we still have one more thing to do. What is it?- Wash our hands.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28- See you, goats.- See you, guys.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40We're so lucky it's not raining,
0:08:40 > 0:08:42because Roxie's loving being outside, isn't she?
0:08:42 > 0:08:44She loves her food.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47She does. Eva, if Roxie and the goats could do absolutely anything,
0:08:47 > 0:08:49what would they do?
0:08:52 > 0:08:55If my pet goats could do anything,
0:08:55 > 0:08:58they would be Irish dancers.
0:08:58 > 0:09:01They would enter a big competition
0:09:01 > 0:09:06and wear white dresses with gold sparkles.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09All the other goat friends would love their dances
0:09:09 > 0:09:13and give them really high scores.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15They would win a really big trophy.
0:09:23 > 0:09:27Sometimes, goats need to be washed and brushed to keep their coats nice
0:09:27 > 0:09:28and clean and healthy.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Do you like brushing Roxie?
0:09:30 > 0:09:33- Yes.- She's very soft, isn't she?
0:09:33 > 0:09:34And do you brush all of your goats?
0:09:34 > 0:09:38Yes, I brush them before shows so their coats are shiny and soft.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41And your goats do lots of shows, don't they?
0:09:41 > 0:09:46Yes, I'm going to do a show for you today and you can be the judge.
0:09:46 > 0:09:47That sounds like so much fun.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51I think Roxie is looking brushed and ready. Should we go to the show?
0:09:51 > 0:09:52- Yeah.- Come on.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00Eva goes to lots of agricultural goat shows
0:10:00 > 0:10:01and I can't wait to be a judge
0:10:01 > 0:10:03at the show she's putting on for me today.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Our first obstacle is a tricky one.
0:10:07 > 0:10:08The cans.
0:10:08 > 0:10:12So, competitors have to weave their goats in and around the cans,
0:10:12 > 0:10:15being really careful not to knock them over.
0:10:15 > 0:10:16Straight from the cans,
0:10:16 > 0:10:21you go on to the big climb and that's where goats have to be really
0:10:21 > 0:10:22steady with perfect balance
0:10:22 > 0:10:25to climb up all the way onto this hay bale and do
0:10:25 > 0:10:29a big jump off to the last area, which is the judging area.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32So I'm going to stand here and I'm going to inspect the goats to see if
0:10:32 > 0:10:37they have lovely clean noses, bright eyes, good strong backs, shiny,
0:10:37 > 0:10:41soft coats and good hooves.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45It's going to be so exciting and we're ready for Eva and Roxie.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Perfect start, well done.
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Great job around the cans. You didn't even hit one.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59Big climb. This is really tough for such a young goat.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Remember, she's only five months old.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05She definitely deserves a bit of a nibble at the end, doesn't she?
0:11:05 > 0:11:06Good job, Roxie.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08And what about the big jump.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10Come on, Roxie!
0:11:10 > 0:11:12That was great.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15If you'd like to bring her over here to the judging area.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Let's check out your nose.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21She's got a lovely clean nose.
0:11:21 > 0:11:23She's got really bright eyes.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26And she's got a lovely strong back.
0:11:26 > 0:11:27Let's see your hooves, Roxie.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32They are perfect. They look really healthy.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34Great marks, well done.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38Roxie is such a beautiful goat, isn't she?
0:11:38 > 0:11:41Gorgeous, Roxie, and she did so well.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43I can't believe she's only five months old.
0:11:43 > 0:11:47- Are you very proud of her? - Yes, I'm so, so proud of her.
0:11:47 > 0:11:51I think that you and Roxie did amazing in that.
0:11:51 > 0:11:55You are a top goat owner and I have something special for you.
0:11:55 > 0:11:58First place in the greatest goat show ever.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00- Thank you, Ferne.- No problem.
0:12:00 > 0:12:03Thank you so much for having me over.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05I had a lot of fun coming here.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07- Thank you very much. - You're welcome.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21- Hi, Rory.- Hi, Ferne.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23Hiya, Hector.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25- How was your day? - Oh, it was fantastic.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27I had such a great time with my friends.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29- It was really fun.- Oh, great.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31Well, as you can see, I've been catching up
0:12:31 > 0:12:32on some serious cuddle time with Hector.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34I can see that and he's loving it.
0:12:34 > 0:12:35Pets are great but remember,
0:12:35 > 0:12:39you shouldn't touch an animal unless the owner says it's OK first.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41Two pets you definitely can play with, though, are ours.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44Go to the CBeebies website and play the My Pet And Me game.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46What a fantastic time we've had.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48We just love meeting you and your pets.
