What EXACTLY is the "grain" you feed the bucks? No one ever says specifically what that grain is. Also, do you use the standard Manna Pro Goat Minerals or something else? Thank you for your insights and for sharing your experience! We've had 4 ND's, 2 male 2 female, a little over a year and still trying to get the feeding and minerals down properly. SO much conflicting information!! Your goats look very healthy - we want ours to be healthy and happy!! Thank you!

I give the goats a mixture of whole corn and soybeans. I doubt you will have whole soybeans available to buy. I use DuMor goat minerals. I would feed the goats 12 % protein feed, then switch to 18% when you want to breed the females and when the does are nursing the kids. The bucks can just stay on 12% feed. I give my goats 1/3 ounce per goat minerals.

Can I keep 2 bucks with 2 Guinea hog boars in a pen? Also if I have lgd’s in with the doe’s and sows for coyotes would I need one in with the boys? Or would donkey’s work for them?

I use 6 ft chain link fence with goat and sheep wire is the setup I use. The goat and sheep fencing are attached to keep animals from pushing underneath the chain link fence. This is what keeps my animals safe from the coyote's. A large pen will be ok for the goats and hogs to live in. Keep an eye on them just in case. They may not play nice when the grain is fed to them. I just don't trust anything but a tall fence with goat wire to keep my goats and sheep safe. I have no experience with donkey's and dogs guarding my goats and sheep, so I can't speak to that.
