What are you feeding them? Include a list of their feed AND their treats. How much are they free ranging? Can you post an ingredient list of your goat feed? What is your general location? What plants predominate if you are free ranging, or what plants have you noticed them eating? What are you using for bedding in coop and run? If no bedding in run, is it grassy or bare soil? How many birds and what is the size of their run? Do the yolks taste better if hard boiled?
Our chickens are 100% free range. We have 5 chickens, 4 ducks, and 4 dwarf goats that have about an acre they share. They have a stall in our barn (big enough for a horse) that the floor is hay and the bedding is the wood shaving bedding that we used when they were chicks.
The only plant currently growing out there is pasture grass. We live in Utah so that's the only thing that they have right now. And that's only when there isn't snow on the ground

We put some corrugated PVC over the exposed insulation on the west side of our house to keep the flock from eating it.
