I am new to keeping goats; I have a 3 month old Nubian/Alpine doeling. Can she be kept in a 30x40 lot with 25-30 chickens? Thanks in advance for replies.

You could have several problems keeping her like that.
1. Goats + chicken feed = sick or dead goat if to much is ingested.
2. Goats don't like to be alone. They do much better with other goats.
3. Is it just chicken wire? If so a goat will go straight through that.
4. That is a little bit of room with a lot of chickens, the goat might not have enough space.

I kind of thought it would be a stretch. The fencing is not a problem. I did not consider the chicken feed, though. I am trying, with no luck, to find a suitable companion goat. Thanks for the info.
