Sexual frustrated/epic rapist wether.

Sounds to me like it is time to start looking up some good goat recipes...our ram was doing that...started with the shelter walls, then ramming us too...he is resting calmly right now in our freezer.

Just not worth it in my opinion.

Calmly being the key word
 
A lot of nice, gentle wethers are out there right now you could buy. Why put up with an aggressive one that can potentially hurt your does....

I dont' even want a wether. They do nothing but cost me money.

We had originally got him for dog food but Drew got attached.
 
You could give the family the option of paying for an Alcatraz for him themselves, if they love him so much they just can't bear the thought of eating him......Absolute isolation for him, no chance ever to harm another animal, especially production animals, that pay their way..... Or eat him. No animal is worth risking animal or human well being, be they pet or production.
 
So we decided to keep him around (for now). We have more fencing in the plans so he will be able to be separated. Keeping him tied has proven successful. We also did a little fabricating and came up with a type of "hobble" to prevent him from mounting the does and running at them but still allow him the freedom to roam.

So far so good. We attached it to front and hind diagonal pairs so he can walk, lay down, and graze comfortably but he cannot run or mount.
