Getting Goat kids

Pics
About as big. About 140 -150 each. But bores are big. I had the same problem you did. Jumpers. As the got bigger they couldn't clear the 4 ft too easily but yours will be smaller when grown up. But the test the sides of the fence for sure! Took years to figure out the best fence shelter feeders and hay racks and everything suited for them and me. All goats are different and everyone's yards and needs are different.

Mine sleep in when it's crappy weather or cold. There awake but don't wanna move (kinda like me on Sunday). But even when single digits and snow the be out and about most of the day
Oh alright. I definitely put them outside to play in the big yard and they like it. I know when they had enough because both just stand and cry for me after an hour of playing. :hugs
Those really are big goats then..:thumbsup
 
I was asked if I'll breed Fancy and I'm not really sure? I definitely don't have the set up for more kids and delivering them scares me if something goes wrong..:th
If you do breed I would wait until next year in the late fall. I have bred younger does, but often it's hard on them. I prefer to let them mature more as goats generally don't start filling out until around 2 years of age. Mature does seem to kid easier. Some younger does can have problems delivering if they are carrying a single big kid.
 
What's this sweet goat feed? Mine looks like chick crumbles. It's kids starter/ Grower feed at 18% :idunno
I feed just the generic sweet 16. I tried regular goat rations, but my goats were never thrilled by them. Sounds like it's just a broken up pellet. In a mixed ration goats will often pick out the best stuff only, but if they aren't fed too much ration than they are always eager to eat it all generally.
 
Other than making the minor adjustments yours looks like it's suiting them well. They are too cute. Yours might be a little easier on the fences to
Sounds like me. My first two were delivered on a Friday night and bye early afternoon Saturday I was already in love. They have such personality
I love my horned devil children
