Ferne goes to a nursery to meet the class pets, Jerry and Ben, who are pygmy goats. She helps the children muck out the goat pen and makes sure they have fresh food and water. They decide to brighten up Jerry and Ben's homes, and together they create a beautiful picture to hang outside the goat shed.

01:01My Pets, My Pets and Me
01:03Have you met My Pets and Me?
01:10Today we're in Chorley to visit some friends at a nursery.
01:13I can't wait to meet them and their pet pygmy goats.
01:16Come on!
01:17Hello everyone!
01:19Hi!
01:20Hi!
01:21What are your names?
01:23Hugh
01:24Hugo
01:25Emily
01:26Sophie
01:27I'm Jed
01:28Nice to meet all of you and who are these two?
01:31Ben and Jerry
01:33Hi Jerry, hi Ben, they're really cute!
01:36And what are they?
01:37Goats!
01:38Goats!
01:39How do you tell the difference between the two of them?
01:43So Jerry has white legs and Ben has black legs.
01:47And Jerry also has a little bit more white on his head, doesn't he?
01:50They do look quite similar.
01:52They're very small, can anyone tell me why they're so small?
01:55Pygmy goats
01:57Yeah, they're pygmy goats.
01:59Pygmy goats are a miniature breed, so they're mini goats.
02:02They're so lovely.
02:04And what are they?
02:05Goats
02:06Goats
02:07Goats
02:08Goats
02:09Goats
02:10Goats
02:11They're lovely.
02:12How old are they?
02:13Two
02:14Two? That's still quite young, isn't it?
02:16Yes!
02:17Do Jerry and Ben get along well together?
02:19Yes!
02:20They're brothers, aren't they?
02:22Yeah
02:23It's nice that you have two goats, because they're very friendly and they don't like being by themselves.
02:28What is your favourite thing about having Jerry and Ben as nursery pets?
02:32Pussing them
02:33Brushing them
02:34And what do they feel like? Are they really soft?
02:36Fluffy
02:37They are very fluffy, aren't they?
02:40And he always eats the food off my hand and it always tickles me.
02:49It's very tickly, isn't it?
02:53What else do you like about your goats?
02:55Their noises
02:56And what noises do goats make?
02:58Baa!
02:59Baa!
03:00They're very noisy, aren't they?
03:02Baa!
03:05Yeah, it's a funny noise.
03:07And what are these called on their chin?
03:09Beards
03:12But it's not just male goats that have beards. Female goats have them too.
03:16Do you think I'd look good with a beard?
03:18Yeah
03:19I think it would be fun. You'd have to brush it every day though, wouldn't you?
03:23Rory, can you tell us some more facts about our bearded buddies here?
03:28Of course, Fern!
03:301. Male pygmy goats are commonly known as billies.
03:33Females as nannies and baby pygmy goats are called kids.
03:402. There are lots of different colours of pygmy goats, like grey, brown or white.
03:46Some are even spotty!
03:503. Pygmy goats tend to be very nosy and love to jump on things so they can see far away.
03:574. Pygmy goats like to be kept with pygmy goat friends so they don't get lonely.
04:03A group of pygmy goats is often called a trip.
04:075. Grass and hay are a pygmy goat's favourite food, but they also like fruit and vegetables as a special treat.
04:15Care Time!
04:21Like all pets, goats need lots of looking after.
04:24And Gerry and Ben are really lucky because there's so many people here at the nursery to help take care of them.
04:29And I'm lucky because I get to help take care of them today too!
04:32What do we have to do to look after these cheeky goats?
04:35Give them some water, feed them and make their bed.
04:39Whoa, that's a lot of work!
04:41We give them water, we feed them and make their bed.
04:43Should we do the mucky bit first?
04:45Yeah!
04:46OK, let's go!
04:49Excuse me, goats!
05:07This is where Gerry and Ben sleep.
05:09This is where Gerry and Ben sleep.
05:13We get rid of all the dirty bedding.
05:21Whoa!
05:23Make sure we clean up all of their poo.
05:29Whoa!
05:30Whoa, that's a big scoop!
05:33Sophie, do you think the goats will be happy with their new clean house?
05:36Yeah!
05:39Whoa, perfect!
05:41This is looking very full.
05:43Should we get rid of the dirty stuff and get their clean stuff?
05:45Yeah!
05:46OK, put your shovel down and we'll go.
05:50Come on!
05:53Get a big handful.
05:55I'll get a big handful.
05:57Whoa!
05:58Now we put them down to sleep in the bedding.
06:02Should we make it nice and fluffy?
06:06We spread it all out.
06:10So the goats will be comfortable.
06:13They need to have a nice clean bed.
06:16So this looks great, doesn't it?
06:18Yeah!
06:19What do we have to do next?
06:21Feed them!
06:22Should we go do that now?
06:23Yeah!
06:24OK, feed them.
06:25Feed them!
06:26Should we go do that now?
06:27Yeah!
06:28OK.
06:30This way!
06:46Alright, last bit.
06:48Will you help pat this down?
06:51Hay is an important part of goats' diets.
06:54It helps to keep them healthy and it's good for their teeth too.
06:56It keeps them nice and clean.
06:59Should we get them some water?
07:00Yeah!
07:01OK, come on.
07:11The goat needs to have clean water to drink.
07:17Lots of lovely fresh water for them.
07:19So we've given the goats fresh water.
07:22We've given them food.
07:23We cleaned their house.
07:24We made their beds.
07:26Good job, guys!
07:27Well done!
07:38Gerry and Ben are going inside to see their clean bed.
07:48I think they like it.
07:54Wash your hands!
08:00Gerry loves getting his coat brushed, doesn't he, Hugo?
08:03Yeah.
08:04What does he feel like?
08:05Fluffy.
08:06He's very fluffy.
08:08But his coat isn't very waterproof,
08:10so it's great that he's got a nice house in the back to shelter in.
08:15What else does Gerry like doing?
08:17He always eats snacks.
08:20If Gerry and Ben could do anything in the world, what would they do?
08:28If Gerry and Ben could do anything,
08:31they would go on a very sunny holiday.
08:34They would bounce on a big trampoline into the sea
08:40and go swimming all around the beach.
08:45They would make friends with some friendly dolphins.
08:50And at the end of the day, they would eat ice cream.
08:59Gerry and Ben are such great pets,
09:01we've decided to paint them a lovely picture for their house.
09:04Haven't we?
09:05Yeah!
09:07It is going to be good and it will be a surprise
09:09because we're hiding in the field so they can't see.
09:12Shall we get started?
09:13Yeah!
09:15Come on.
09:16What colours first?
09:18I want blue.
09:20I'm going to do some grass.
09:22Under the sea.
09:24Oh, I like the sea, that will be nice.
09:26So we can have grass here and the sea over there.
09:29The sea here.
09:30That's beautiful.
09:31That looks like a big wave.
09:33Yeah, it's a big wave.
09:36That looks amazing.
09:38This sea is brilliant.
09:41Wow, nice Huw.
09:46Nice big sun.
09:48I'm going to make another sun.
09:53Do you know what we still haven't painted yet?
09:55No.
09:56What?
09:57Gerry and Ben.
09:58Hi.
10:00They're painting and we're forgetting about them.
10:06I'm doing the background.
10:08Is that your big sun, Amelie?
10:10Yeah.
10:11It is gorgeous.
10:13Pygmy goats love to play outside,
10:15especially when it's warm and sunny.
10:18I love doing this.
10:21And I love doing paint.
10:24I love painting, it's very fun.
10:27Is that the butterfly?
10:29Yep, I'm trying to do a butterfly.
10:32Would you like to help out?
10:33You can colour in the wings.
10:35I'm going to do yellow.
10:39What do you think Gerry and Ben's favourite colours are?
10:44Green.
10:45White and green are their favourite colours.
10:47Those are nice.
10:48And they're surrounded by it, aren't they?
10:50Because they've got lots of green grass.
10:52Most goats like to eat grass,
10:54but they also love to eat some leaves,
10:56shrubs and weeds too.
10:59I think we should write their names as well.
11:03We've got Ben.
11:04Who are we missing?
11:06Ben.
11:07Who are we missing?
11:08Gerry.
11:10Big D for Gerry.
11:19Okay, what colour should the Y be?
11:21Green.
11:22This colour.
11:23Silver.
11:24Alright.
11:27Last few bits.
11:28I think this is looking great.
11:30Do you?
11:31Yeah.
11:33What do you think Gerry and Ben are going to say
11:35when they see this?
11:36Wow!
11:40I think this painting looks great.
11:42Well done!
11:43It's so colourful.
11:48This looks fantastic.
11:50It makes their house so colourful.
11:52Do you think Gerry and Ben will love it?
11:54Yeah!
11:57I think so too.
11:58I've had so much fun meeting Gerry and Ben
12:00and all of you.
12:01Thank you very much for inviting me.
12:03Thank you Ben!
12:19I think they like our painting.
12:24What lovely pygmy goats.
12:30My Pet and Me!
12:34Hi Rory.
12:35Hi Ferran.
12:36Hi Holly. Hi Barry.
12:37I'm just getting their bed ready.
12:38They look nice and cosy already.
12:39They definitely do.
12:41How was your day?
12:42It was brilliant.
12:43I had so much fun with my new friends.
12:45Pets are great but you shouldn't touch an animal
12:48unless the owner says it's okay first.
12:50Two pets you definitely can play with are ours.
12:52Go to the CBeebies website and play the My Pet and Me game.
12:55What a fantastic time we've had.
12:57We just love meeting you and your pets.
13:01Today we met
13:04a lovely pet.
13:07We see how much you care for them.
13:10Thank you so much for sharing them.
13:13Time for us to
13:16just remind you
13:19after you've played with your pet.
13:22What's your pet?
13:24Don't forget!
13:26It doesn't matter what pet you've got.
13:29You might have one, you might not.
13:32It's still fun finding out
13:35what having a pet is all about.
13:38My pet, my pet and me.
13:41My pet, my pet and me.
13:44My pet, my pet and me.
13:47Come back and see!
13:48My pet and me.
13:58My pet and me.
