Getting Goat kids

[oldhenlikesdogs]

They aren't dumb questions. If you watched my goats long enough you'd swear they hated each other. Remove one, and all it will do is scream for the rest who will come looking for it. Return it, and everyone takes turns butting it.

They don't like the feed in the bag. Never were fed a goat feed before. Anything I can do to entice them to eat it?
@MillersFarm
Or anyone else that has ideas?
UPDATE! Eating the feed now...

How are they doing today? Have they gotten used to the grain?
Glad to hear they're sharing the same house now~!

View attachment 1942545 Hello. I have a million questions about goats.
I'm getting two kids today and I'm postitve I need more help.
I'm getting a castrated male and a Doe. They are still babies but weaned or so I think?
Nigerian Dwarf/Fainting goat crosses.
Will they still faint if crosses?
Getting wormer today before they come home. Do they need more in 10 days?
How much water do they drink daily?
What about supplements?
Please help me if you can...

Hi. We have goats..al great questions..there is awesome forum for everything goats called goatspot. I don’t ha that fainting so I don’t know if your crosses will do that..your boy, is now called a wethers. Depends on what type of wormer you got..I go with Molly’s Herbs and there is a two part. There’s always paperwork included. They don’t drink a ton..but I keep lots of fresh water out...never empty. We have three..two does and a buck. We get our free minerals at tractor supply..it’s in the cattle section...you keep it out all the time but somewhere it won’t get damp..they are picky..very picky..won’t eat hay once it’s hit the ground..but if I pick it up and they don’t know..they’ll eat it sometimes..anyways..I’m wayyy new at goats but learning fast..you have to, and it’s a ball..go to goatspot and they’ll hep you with everything
