We may be looking to move soon to a small town where we can keep goats in our yard (plenty of space for them, also has a concrete stall + attached chicken/duck coop already).
It has solid welded fences around all 4 sides, but they are only 4ft so we'd have to do the top as Chicken Wire (Adding an extra 3-4ft to prevent escape of chooks, ducks, and goats and to keep neighbors dogs out.).
Would that work? As if they try to climb the reachable fence is dog proof and solid so they can step and lean all they want.
We arent worried about horns getting stuck in this type of fencing as the holes are too small, I couldn't put my hand through as an idea. And we'd supplement plenty of hay, occasional grain and alfalfa pellets, free for all minerals etc so they never lack.
Thank you for all the replies, I'm looking into purchasing the minerals asap, and will just habe to wait on postage as not sold near me.
Goat products are a mission in Australia near me apparently.
