What if you don't have enough pastures and feed hay
@rollingofarm3 күн бұрын
If you are truly “dry lotting” (no grass, just dirt) and feeding hay, worms should not be a big problem. They pick up the worm larva from grass. Hay should be larva free (can’t survive in dried hay). However if you have just a little grass that they graze very close they may be picking up worm larva.

Cydectin for sheep is also safe for goats?

Yes, I believe so. However, the dosage would probably be different (higher for goats). But I have used it on goats.

can you tell me how wide you made your handling alleyways and if you'd do them any different (wider or more narrow). I plan to make mine out of pipe with everything welded and I don't want to make any errors! I have goats...about 50 and we just catch all of them to worm and vaccinate. It's truly a rodeo and very stressful for all involved. Would like to work smarter!
@rollingofarm5 күн бұрын
My alleys are 20”, which is a little too wide for most (smaller ones can turn around). However, a big Kiko buck with wide horns has trouble getting through it. So it’s kind of a compromise.

@rollingofarm14 күн бұрын
If you are feeding hay, leave it out free choice (unless it is alfalfa or some very rich hay). If you are feeding grain, once or twice is fine, but just not too much at a time.

We rotationally graze a flock of sheep and goats. In setting up the next couple of paddies, we came across a fox den. We’re going to graze around the fox den, but are surprised as to how the fox got in the pasture since we have six and seven strains on electric high-tensile fencing. Our fence is very hot, 8k volts. In any event, do foxes tend to be a problem with sheep and goats, especially when these small ruminants are birthing? Also, we’re concerned about dogs barking at night with neighbors close by. Any suggestions as to how we might find a guardian llama or possibly other livestock guardian animal? Thank you for your help.
@rollingofarm19 күн бұрын
I have never had problems with foxes, but I’ve heard others talking about them be a problem for small lambs and kids. I don’t have any experience with llamas. Donkeys may make more noise than dogs.

Does your cost of input make the top 5 list? If you don't buy any feed and just rotational graze do you think it effects your profit margins?
@rollingofarmАй бұрын
For my operation, feed is mostly a liability. I know people make a profit raising them in barns with only bought hay and feed, but I don’t have experience with that. I rationally graze 8-9 months of the year and feed hay for 3-4 months a year with almost no feed.

Great video - thank you. I'm realizing temporary electric fencing is not sustainable (it's a pain to move every few days and risks killing the goats in tangles as you mentioned so that defeats the point). I need better fencing for rotational grazing. I think I'm going to go with the horse/goat/sheep exterior fencing and electric dividers. We have rocks and mountain land so fencing with land that is not level is no easy task. Also - if you live in Montana the fish & wildlife teams help get funding for electric to hold out the grizzlies/mountain lions/wolves. They cover some of the cost as well so it's worth reaching out if you need it.
