Goat feed for my Queens

[mcjweb]

Good Morning, I have a new goat in a separate pen. My girls have found the goat feed and seem to like it, but I have also put a goat mineral block in the pen and they went wild over it. Do y'all think it's ok or should I ban them from the pen. Thanks in advance.

I don't know a thing about goats, but I do know that goat feed is not formulated to the needs of chickens. Probably won't hurt them,
but I don't see how there can be much benefit either. Remember, chickens eat any and everything, so just because they eat it doesn't
mean that it will be good for them.

TY so much

I have goats and goat food tends to be high in minerals, particularly copper, that is usually not good for other animals. Can you rig up the goat feeder in a way that the chickens can't get to the food?
