@@BoisDArcKikos - I care for a disabled woman (wheelchair bound) who still wants to homestead - she wants to get some goats for clearing the underbrush in the forest we live in. I think she wants to get Spanish goats. Says they need nothing but a LGD to watch over them. I feel they will need *some* care. Do you have any insights to share? They will not be my goats, and I'm not keen on having to care for them, but once they get here, I know I'll step up to the plate.
@BoisDArcKikos3 жыл бұрын
She’s pretty much right. Just make sure you have a good fence. Spanish goats are pretty hardy too.

Good information! We have been feeding our does/bucks every other day some grain along with pasture...we want to breed in December, so we have April kids...so should we up the feed to daily 2 weeks before breeding as well? Also loved seeing Cowboy's Dad out there...Cowboy is just a great lgd...very very pleased with him!

I have a question if you don't mind. I have limited acreage and can't rotate effectively but to help control parasites would a dry lot with good hay and grain as needed work as basically nothing on the ground to eat? Thanks. Great goats and operation you have.

Yea that would work too. Dry lot with good hay and feed will most definitely flush them before breeding. Thanks for watching
