Chillin' with the herd
Okay I own a 73 pound 11 month old purebred Nubian, and a 55 pound 9 month old purebred Alpine. Both are does. I don't know if that information will help, but I mind as well put it. We are planning to breed them in the spring. Okay so right now my feeding routine is not working.
The place I live does not allow hay bales so I have been giving them alfalfa cubes and pellets, with a little grain. They get 7 pounds of the mix a day, and if they empty the bowl I will fill it up. I feel like I am not doing something right, so can I have some of your feeding schedules for information? They are a healthy weight and have shiny coats so I think I'm doing okay. I guess I just want a little order. I may not have barley any goats compared to some of you who have huge herds. I'm not as talented as some of you awesome people are! Can you help me determine what I need to do better, and how much I should feed them?
Thanks
