This is a Bagot goat called Windmill Matthew and he's a rare breed. This means that there aren't many Bagot goats left in Britain.

Wimpole Home Farm is in Cambridgeshire. It's a working farm with rare farm breeds. The National Trust is trying to help save native breeds and Bagot goats are native to Britain. |

Hopefully, there will be some Bagot goat kids in the Spring next year. We'll keep you updated as soon as we have any news - can't wait to see photos of them! |

Did you go to a farm over Easter? If so, have you got any photos of animals you saw that you can send us? |
