This weekend I converted my plans into an actual thing.
In the future we will get an small horse dual axle trailer.
However for the time being this is what I came up with.
Overall it's a 10 by 4 flat deck trailer, I added 2x4 stake holders to the side. Built the panels up with 50 inch cattle panels and wood then put some corrugated metal siding on the sides and made a roof with it as well.
I'd really like any tips or recommendations for goats preferences in trailers. I'm going to try to make a front wind guard to take most of the wind off them.
Is a wood decking adequate for them? Should I get a rubber mat?
Do they need feed and water available on an hour plus drive?
This is for 2 whether alpine with horns about a year and a half old.
Going to try a maiden voyage soon and planning a trail magic camping trip in the next week and going to bring the 2 boys along.
Happy to get these goats out on more trails!
