METHUEN — Anyone who wants to adopt a goat should take at least three. That's the recommendation of Nevins Farm in Methuen, which is affiliated with the Massachusetts Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and has a herd of 47 goats that are up for adoption. They suggest taking these animals in groups, and may place as many as 10 together, because goats are social creatures that thrive in each other's company. 'There are really big personalities in goats,' said Rachel Navarro, assistant manager of equine and farm animals at Nevins.
