Feeding Suggestions:
- Hay or pasture should make up the greater percentage of the total diet, ideally 2% of live body weight
- Where possible, feed allocation over two or more feeds per day
- Where it is necessary to feed mature goats greater than 1.00 kg per day, mix equal amounts (by weight) of a coarse roughage (e.g. white chaff) with pellets or ensure that stock have access to suitable (palatable) roughage in the form of pasture and/or hay at all times.
- Access to cool, clean drinking water at all times (24/7)
- Introduce pellets slowly and remove any waste daily.
- Goats are susceptible to pulpy kidney; vaccinate accordingly and maintain high roughage intake
- Feeding levels are intended as a guide only; ensure that clean, cool water and roughage in the form of pasture and/or hay is available at all times.
- Results will vary according to seasonal conditions, age of animal, housing, health and body condition prior to the introduction of supplements and other feed/roughage
- For best results, feed should be introduced to livestock prior to other feeds becoming limited
- Phase new feeds in and out gradually over a 7- 14-day period to avoid setbacks.
