"Hi Ann!
sorry for the late response- I have been out of town. For the pellets, my 5 boys share 2 cups twice a day. It is really just a way to have something to top dress their daily supplements on. With all the hay they are getting you really could…"

"Dear Tammy,
I apologize for not to replying to your helpful questions...I've been distracted this last week and just kept forgetting! At least the goats know nothing of the human chaos swirling right now.
I'm not sure how much hay they are eating…"

"Well I have to say they are super cute!!!
They will need hay throughout the winter until pasture forage returns. As long as they are getting hay and/or graze and browse they will have plenty of fiber in their diet. A problem can come with just…"

"Hi Tammy,
Thanks for writing back. They are wethers. I'm not exactly sure of what grass is in the hay, as I buy it from a farmer who has beef cattle and sells hay as well. It is all grass though and not much in the way of weeds. I did have some…"

"Hi Ann!
Oh yes! You have yourself some chunky monkeys :)
Are these wethers or does? It can be hard to get weight off of of wethers because they don't really have much in the way of stress to impact them. Same thing with dry does kept as pets. I had…"

Hello All, It has been a while since I have posted with a question and am grateful for all the past help. When I was early in my goating years Tammy had posted that during the times of the year that good hay was hard to get, she fed the hay pellets…

" Thanks, Tammy. I just read the transcript and see them talking about thistles in particular. There are some new rosettes growing in the field and I think I'll harvest some today and offer it and see what happens.
Thanks so much and I'll let you…"

"Hi there Ann!
So good to hear from you :)
So this could be hit or miss for you. If it is a completely new and foreign forage to them, they may avoid it completely or they may have great interest. Goats tend to stick to what they know if there is…"

Hello, It has been a couple of years since I needed help or answers and I'm glad to pop back in now.The short of my question is about reasonable expectations of goats controlling thistles. My three ND wethers are 3 years ole and are currently in a…
"Thanks for answering Tammy! I think nervousness is like a germ sometimes, in the way it can pass from one person to another. In this case, to me!

"Hi again, Deborah,
I have been reading since last night and find that the orchardgrass pellets have a lesser Ca to P ratio than the timothy pellets, which are around 2:1 and that the sunflower seeds aren't a good idea at all, being that they are…"

"Also, she said that timothy was a "balanced" feed source, as in having calcium and phosphorus, as opposed to orchardgrass that was high in phosphorus alone. Cany you speak to that? I'm trying to do my own research as well."
