He has mingled with the rammie boys and nobody has head butted. Wilder, our Nubian-Nigerian dwarf buck goat mix, is also in with those boys, since he is so tiny. He tried rubbing his head on Ferdie's rear haunches. That was not appreciated apparently. He's been munching hay, sniffing the air, and generally behaving perfectly. What a gentleman - we love him!
