I hate to disagree but my large goats LOVE to lick a salt and mineral block.
I do offer them free choice loose minerals but they really love their block licks and I use 1 of those big cattle size salt licks a year. I also offered them the billy goat berry lick for the boys - love it too. They lick themselves silly sometimes.
You need excellent fencing!! Don't skimp. You will regret it.
My vet uses dectomax cattle wormer on all my new to the farm goats. It works great. once a year in the spring and they aren't bothered with ticks or flies, mosquitoes etc. either.
