Anyone know about goats?

I know I can Google most of this, and I will, but it seems there is always good information here.

I've been tossing around the idea of getting a goat. Strictly as a pet, no interest in the milk. Would there be any ill effects of not milking a goat, or if she wasn't bred would she even produce milk?

Is there a benefit to male vs. female?

How much room do they need? We have 5 acres but none of it is fenced, so I would have to create an area.

Also down the line we may add other animals to the mix, and I would like to keep them in the same area. The wife has mentioned ducks, and maybe a peacock. I guess what I'm asking is will the goat get along with other animals or are they assholes?

Never got the goats, knocked my wife up instead LOL (we're due in July).

Thank god for CLSB where you can ask ANYTHING and get feedback, and sometimes some of it is even useful.

Happy New Years :cheers
