Farmers often call goats the most curious and mischievous animals on the farm, so if there’s trouble to be found, they’ll be the ones to find it. They’re also really good at figuring things out, whether that means opening a gate, escaping their pen to go hang out with friends or explore, or even reaching a snack you were sure they couldn’t get to. And that’s exactly what this goat, Mr. Pickles, did recently.
TikToker @layceegwyther shared a video that her husband sent her when he found Mr. Pickles in a precarious situation. The goat had hay stuck to his horns and covering his face, and he looked adorably ridiculous! Make sure your sound is on so you can hear Dad try to find out what Mr. Pickles had been up to.
We’re not sure if Mr. Pickles was asking for help or telling his dad he was totally fine; either way, it cracked us up! Laycee also made us giggle when we read her caption: “HHHAAAYYYY Mr. Pickles!!!” Another commenter responded, “He has a hay-fro now!”

More About Mr. Pickles and Other Mischievous Goats
We’ve written about Mr. Pickles before, and he’s notorious for refusing to follow the rules. One of his favorite habits is headbutting, and whenever he wants in or out of the house, he just uses his horns to bang on the door to let Mom know.
Despite being told multiple times to stop, Mr. Pickles learned the hard way how Mom was going to solve the problem: she ended up wrapping pool noodles around his horns!
The Gentle Barn also has a feisty goat named Baron Von Goat, who’s also known for finding trouble. They shared a video of all of the crimes he’d committed, and there were several. Baron is caught red-handed, er, we mean hoofed, trespassing, disturbing the peace, dumpster diving, theft, and more. He’s a master at keeping himself entertained by finding lots of trouble to get into!
And then there’s Buttercup, a new mama goat who, like most new moms, could use a long nap. She was so tired that she forgot where she put her baby goat and cried to her human mom for help!
