Utilize Larger Pasture Areas

4
  1. Solution: If possible, provide access to larger pasture areas (e.g., 1/4 acre or more per 2-4 goats) for foraging.
  2. Explanation: Larger pastures allow goats to browse and forage naturally, supplementing their diet and providing enrichment. This reduces reliance on hay and grain, potentially lowering feed costs. It also disperses manure, helping manage parasite loads compared to confinement in small lots.
  3. Notes: Pasture quality varies. Goats are browsers (preferring weeds, shrubs, leaves) more than grazers (grass). Ensure pasture plants are safe and non-toxic.
