Very nice pictures. Thanks for sharing.
Working on my goat identification skills.
I've got those all down as nanny's. Anyone else hazard a guess?

Here's my thoughts on them.
Pic # 1 Nanny for sure. Long thin horns, almost could get a full width of a horn between the bases in the center of her forehead. Also this time of year it makes it easier as nannies shed their winter coats last.
Pic # 2 could possibly be a younger billy, bases are a little bigger than the eye and a pretty good curve to the horn.
Pic # 3 the sub adult on the left is most likely a billy, his bases are already as big as the adult female in the middle.
Pic #4 could also possibly be a young billy, can't see the bases, but they are getting pretty big before they are covered up by the ear.

Paden, I agree with your assessment. Pretty sure it is the same goat in those pics. Obviously I got a much better look than you guys, but couldn't be sure it was a billy. Although I think it is a billy, it wouldn't be a shooter. I think a mature billy is pretty easy to identify.
Looking forward to hearing about some goat hunts in a couple months. That means lots of pictures you lucky bastages.
