If you have goats that are copper deficient, you may want to supplement them with copper oxide wire particles (COWP), and I recently had a Goats 365 student ask if it was okay to let the goats chew the copper because he had seen some people on Facebook say that they give their goat a second dose if it chews it because they don't think it will work if it's chewed. Oh, my! Here's why giving a second dose is not only unnecessary but dangerous.
