Building a Goat Hay Feeder

We our building our future goats a hay feeder in the goat barn. Wasn't sure on height so I built them the way I think they should be built.

The farm i work at has hay feeders just like the one you built. I like the barn too. You picked a great spot to live in the Ozarks. I watched your intro video and had to sub. Can't wait till you get the goats.

Cow Person - wow, thank you so much! We subbed you as well and will visit your channel. We would love to have a mini jersey some day but it’s probably a pipe dream for now, lol! Living in the southern Ozarks is awesome. Thank you for the positive feedback and thank you for watching!

[@cowperson4763]

Thanks for the sub. Mini Jerseys are beautiful cows. Hope one day you do get one.

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Thanks, we’re getting there! Thanks for watching and have a great weekend!

[@leonardsheatravel]

We never had goats on our farm but I love them. They are cute and funny! You have some beautiful stuff coming out of your garden! Wow!

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Thank you, we really enjoy gardening and can’t wait for goats! Thank you for watching!

[@lindatornowski2421]

Great feeder! I wish I’d seen this before I built the one I did. The goats use it as a bed and jungle gym 😂

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Thank you! Goats are notorious for lounging in their feeders if at all possible!!

[@hardnackfarms1736]

I am enjoying your videos and the music. Have a very blessed week! Wendy❤️🐞

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Hardnack Farms - thank you so much for the nice feedback! Have a great week❣️ ~ Josie 😊

[@AaricHale]

You did a awesome job on the hay feeder !

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Thank you! Hopefully it will work well for us. Thank you for watching and have a great weekend!

[@RockingCHomestead]

I really like the hey feeder. I might have to steal that design!

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Thank you, we’re hoping it works well and cuts down on wasted hay! Can’t wait to get our goats and find out! / Josie

[@Markslife101]

Nice job! We used an iron porch rail turned over and attached to the wall.

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Yeah, I’ve seen that done a few times. If I would’ve had one lying around I probably would’ve done the same thing! Thanks for watching and have a great weekend!

[@neednaturenow]

Great job 👍 New subscriber here. Loved your intro, your land is beautiful. Looking forward to more videos and friendship!!!

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Thank you so much! We love our place here in the Ozarks and never get tired of the view. Have a great weekend and thank you for watching!

[@HeatherHasToStartSomewhere]

Great job ! Love the way y'all put it together☺💞

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Heather Has To Start Somewhere - thank you so much! Can’t wait for our goats!

[@SquareOneFarms]

Awesome job! I really like the goat set up. We are planning to build a similar hay feeder, glad I found this. The window in to put the hay is fantastic. Most days I feel like I enjoy wrestling my girls to give feed and hay! 🤣

[@SquareOneFarms]

And went ahead and subscribed. We enjoy finding other goat people!

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Thank you so much, we subbed you back! We’ve been working really hard trying to make everything nice for the little critters! Thank you for your kind words and thank you for watching!

[@timer664]

very nice feeder,we had alot of goats when i was a kid,milked alot helped out with birthing good times,like your channel,sub,bell,thanks for sharing,stay connected.

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Timer66 - thank you - we subbed and will check out your channel today. Thank you for watching!

[@juliamartin9047]

Thank you for the ideas. 😎😎😎

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

You’re welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting 😊

[@fionajane56]

Will your goats be dehorned? That is a very nice feeder. Simple and functional. Horns always add a hazard to any kind of feeder though. Our sheep are polled thank goodness.👍🏼

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Ours will be disbudded or possibly naturally polled. I would like to have polled ones if possible, so we don’t have to do the disbudding! Thank you for watching and have a great weekend!

[@momovaryacting8798]

Growing up my grandma had goats, I hope to have some one day. They’re so cute

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

They really are.

[@TheStaffordWay]

This video is very helpful. I will use this, this spring !

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Good deal

[@TheNeuAdventure]

Very nicely done! I bet our donkeys would like something like that!! They just throw their hay all over the ground pretty much...:)

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Thank you- we’re hoping it works well for us! I think goats are notorious for dropping hay on the ground as well and then they won’t eat it, lol. Thank you for watching!

[@rspryngfarmcountry4487]

Great job! We need to make one this weekend as well so you are inspiring us!

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Thank you! It really didn’t take very long and hopefully it will work well for us. Good luck on your project and thank you for watching! Have a great weekend! /Josie

[@AdventuresintheHeartland]

This would probly work for mini horses aswellm subed you as well

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Yes it might just work. I would love to have a miniature Jersey milk cow but my wife thinks other wise. lol

[@squirrelhillfarm9070]

That ought save you $$$ in wasted hay

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

That’sWhat we’re hoping for! Have a great weekend and thanks for watching!

[@212acres3]

Still going..............

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

2 1/2 Acres - ❤️❤️❤️

[@karengiansante3106]

What are the dimensions please

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

I'll get them for you today.

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

The dimensions are around 32" high and 32" wide. But you can make it any size you want. I wouldn't go any less than 32" high because it keeps goats from going over the top. You can make the bottom off floor about a foot. Hope this helps
