Instructions

    • 1

      Feed a 14- to 16-percent protein grain mix.

    • 2

      Provide hay for goats. Feed in a hanging hayrack or feeder to prevent goats from soiling hay.

    • 3

      Provide a mineral mix or block.

    • 4

      Feed goat in a feeder where goat cannot soil its feed.

    • 5

      Feed goat once or twice a day depending on your schedule. A milking doe is milked twice a day, so she needs to be fed twice a day.
