Instructions
Build a pen for the Nubian goat to keep it from straying unless you have a fully fenced area. The goat will eat any vegetation around so you may need to pen it to prevent it from eating your plants.
Provide a goat shed for the little animal. You can also use a dog house or barn as long as it is draft-free and warm. Fill the bottom with fresh hay and keep it mucked out so the goat has a clean bed.
Put a milk crate or other high item in the pen area. Mini Nubian goats hate wet feet and like something to stand on when it rains.
Provide the goat with a variety of food such as a bucket of alfalfa and some goat chow. They also need fresh water daily, a small dish of baking soda and a salt block to provide trace minerals. The baking soda helps goats with digestion.
Brush the goat's hair a few times a week and trim its hooves at least every three weeks. File them after so they are even. Take the goat to the vet at least bi-yearly to get wormed and vaccinated.
