Goat Cart Cruising!

Memorial Day, 2011

[@jmhinnen]

I drive mule carriages for a living, and I absolutely adored seeing a goat cart in action! :)

[@fourseasonsnorth]

Great! We train our goats to pull, too and it's such fun!

[@addiegraves3]

About how much weight can the average wether pull? Let say the wether is an average built alpine

[@biegelfamilymusic5337]

@@addiegraves3 Working Goats says a full sized goat can carry 25 to 35% of its body weight, with a maximum load of 50 pounds per goat.

[@langcolo]

Goats can pull about 3x their weight comfortably. Rambo LOVES to do it! He will walk over to the cart and step between the rails, wanting to be harnessed!

[@kimgrubb2701]

3 times thier weight is WAY TO MUCH you could injure your goat very easy

[@Saartje05]

Even a shetland pony can't pull three times their weight, let alone a goat.

[@jessicablack9303]

No goats should only pull their wheight plus half. So a 100 pound goat can pull a maximum of 150 pounds. I'm researching how to train harness goats because I just got two alpine weathers that I will be training to cart once they are old enough. ( 3-4 years old depending on how fast they mature.)

Freya and Sif stole Thor's chariot and went on road trip.

[@rptube16]

Interesting. I didn't know goats were strong enough to do that.

[@countrygirlsstopanimationw6928]

Yes they are very strong goats can care 2x their body weat

[@langcolo]

Started at about 8 months old, on the long lines walking behind him.

[@langcolo]

Bet they'd love it!!

[@florisjanpietster]

is it easy for a goat to pull a cart like that?

[@candymeadowalmondjoy]

That looks like my mini horses easy entry cart. Is that cart made for a mini horse?

[@FatihAggez-l8t]

Electric car

[@OtantikJP]

Did you made the harness yourself? I'm really interested in trying this!

[@hayleebalme3510]

What harness are you using? Love it!

[@candymeadowalmondjoy]

How old was your goat when you taught him to pull the cart?

[@langcolo]

@AgilityLover14 Harness thru Hoegger Goat Supply Catalog/online. Cart is a Miniature horse cart. Works great for my 185# goat Rambo!

[@langcolo]

yes, same one!

[@maryann0611]

I can't convince my husband to get me one of those carts for me and our pack goats!!! Napga/Goat Tracks
