Grain cut in half?

[Hunt4farm]

Speaking in general, if I cut my goats grain intake in half from winter to now will it cause them to graze more?

How much grain are you giving?

Probably not. Does that are on grain tend to graze as much as those that are not on grain. That's on our farm anyway.

They normally get 1.5 cups each per day and we have 2 myotonic goats.

Mine will eat their grain and then stuff themselves the rest of the day with all the browse/grain they can!

Mine woof down there grain like there starving ( yes they are regularly wormed with diff types of wormer to cover all possiblity of any worms)
They don't show there ribs at all anytime of the year.
I only feed them hay in winter, otherwise they graze on 3 different rotational fields( 6acres total)they don't even put a dent in keeping it ate down( I would probably need 6 more to really keep it mowed down but even then probably not b/c there not sheep
