Small goats, any chance they will catch up in growth?
#6
Thanks for the advice folks. They are alpines. I'm going to continue searching for some replacements to rotate in within the next couple years. They are getting about a cup or two of grain a day (a no no I know ) and AC as well as alfalfa pellets and free choice hay. I feel at this time it is worth the risk of UC to try and pour the feed to them to see what they will do. For my intentions they will need to be big and full of heart. These goats are wonderful company and have plenty of heart but that's not going to be enough when the rubber meets the road. Unfortunately the wife is already attached to them. .. We did 25 miles last weekend with them in 3 days and they kept pace with us just fine. Longest day was close to 12 miles. It was fun but it would have been nice to have them carry our stuff!

Thanks
