I think the other reason we did separate stalls is because one goat is my daughter's (Snowy) and we are making it her responsibility. We don't have a milk stand yet, hubby has to work on that.

We feed hay, as well as a dairy feed that our feed store mixes up. It is not a "sweet feed", but a mixture. We were told that this was acceptable feed.

We are also big on efficiency, and while we only have two goats now it's not that hard. I know that as our "herd" increases, I am sure hubby will come up with more short cuts.

rare if I stall goats but if I put any 2 together, one always loses big time.

I have kidding pens for when needed, only 1 to a pen always.....and they have open stalls for everyday with run in sheds etc. As long as one can get away from another, it is fine. You stall up 2 or 3 together alot of times you got a dominance problem and we all know the horns and whamming can get brutal.

We are almost finished with the goat boys area. There are still a few finishing touches we need to put on their shelter. I also want to have a small little "stall" area inside the shelter so I can separate the one boy when they eat.

From the outside. This is the overhang area of our older barn.

This is from under the overhang looking across to the shelter area.

These are images from inside the shelter. The shelter is 8x12. Right now we are using corral panels to make a little area to put a goat if they need to be by themselves plus to be able to hang their feeders and hay bags. That part is still a work in progress and won't get done until spring. So for now, the panels stay.
