Really, get a livestock prod and shock the living fire out of her when she jumps on you, she'll learn awful quick. May raise a few eyebrows of folks that couldn't imagine "hurting a widdle baby goatie-poo," but believe me, if you've raised as many bummers as I have, you...
Oh, here's some for y'all, true stories:
One person informed me that they don't eat eggs because they're actually baby chicks, and that's killing an innocent animal (right after that she took another bite if steak... I was quite amused at that whole conversation.)
Know someone that doesn't...
Mama's in one pen, kids in another on the other side of the ranch at 7-12 weeks (although I had one that weaned himself at 3 weeks :ep , healthy as can be though. No, mama didn't reject him, he just decided enough was enough I guess lol. Go figure.)
Well, I ended up rescuing him (palomino QH) and he gained weight like a mad dog, kept him for several months but it got awful expensive after awhile so I gave him to some friends of mine who live not too far from me. He made it through the winter fine (which was my main concern, it was brutal...

Well, he's been wormed already... I know he's gettin some grain, not much though, and not regularly. They have a weight builder on the market nowadays, is it any good or should I avoid it like the plague?
Well, I mean besides that. I know to feed grain, I've been around horses my whole life... What I mean is, is there somethin else I can do (in addition to the grain) to help him along? I know he aint been grained much (he has had a little now and then) and I'm tryin to think of ways to put weight...
Well, I met this lady who needs to sell some horses, so I'm gonna get a skinny little yearling colt. He's been wormed, no shots this year yet, and he has free choice hay and grass... But you can see his ribs, hip bones, etc plain as day... I believe she's feedin him free choice hay and grass...
