    goat barn question???

    We are remodeling our goat barn and want to add more stalls in order to have more separation pens. What would you say is a minimum size stall for 5 pygmy goats? Just trying to figure out how to break up the space to fit a good amount of seperate areas.

    when you say "browse" or " pasture" in terms of goats...

    OK great! Thanks for the replies:) So if they don't eat much grass is it safe to assume that the pasture will stay green? Or will they eventuallykill all the grass? :)

I read a lot about browse and plants and brush ect...but my goat "pasture" is just a fenced in half acre of my yard....not a field just green lawn (and some weeds). Is this ok for them? They get hay and grain of course but don't have...

    Yay I cant wait to get pics up! I'm counting on some educated guesses :) I'm excited to get them home. I realy don't even care if they end up being mixes (you never know lol) I'm sure you will be able to tell since you breed pygmys. He told me that one is blk and white like a cow... can...
