Goats are neutral mobs that will spawn on snowy slopes, jagged peaks, and frozen peaks, and naturally spawned goats have a 2% chance of being a variant of goat called a screaming goat. When killed, goats will drop 1-3 experience if they were killed by a player or a tamed wolf. Baby goats will not drop anything.

Goats tend to stick to high terrain, and can jump much higher than other mobs. They also take 10 points less fall damage than most mobs. Goats can be milked to provide a bucket of milk.

If a goat rams a solid block, it will drop a goat horn (which can be played by the player). When this happens, the goat will lose one of its horns. There are four variants of horns for regular goats (Ponder, Sing, Seek, and Feel), and four different variants exclusive to the screaming goat (Admire, Call, Yearn, and Dream).

Every 30 to 300 seconds, goats try to ram a stationary target that they can see with 4-16 blocks away. They will target players, armor stands, and other mobs, except for ghasts and other goats. This will inflict a small amount of damage and 9 blocks of knockback (baby goats will deliver half that much). While it is lowering its head, the target has a chance to move out of the way. If the goat misses, it will usually stop itself within a few blocks, unless it hits a solid block, which is when a goat horn will be dropped. Mobs that are rammed will not retaliate, except for the warden. Unlike other neutral mobs, goats will not attack the player if the player attacks them.

Goats will follow a player holding wheat within a 10-block radius, and if two goats are fed wheat by the player, they will enter love mode and breed, and the player will be rewarded with 1-7 experience. Breeding together two normal goats, there is a 2% chance of the baby being a screaming goat. If a normal goat is bred with a screaming goat, there is a 50% chance for the baby to be a screaming goat. If two screaming goats are bred together, the chances of the baby being a screaming goat are 100% on Java Edition and 98% on Bedrock Edition. Two goats that have just been bred cannot be bred again for 5 minutes, and it will take 20 minutes for the baby goat to grow into an adult. The growth process can also be sped up by feeding the baby goat wheat.
