Hello All
Been Thinking (Always a Bad Idea for me)
All of my boy's know and were bottle babies, ?TGFSF
I fed Blizzard and Fuzzy myself with a special mix from a goat milking farm.
Pete and Sam came from her. see Stow away goats thread.
======================
I tried something the other day,hot nasty weather and the big boys were panting bad when we got back to camp.
My nursing bottle nipples were siting on the shelf above the sink,
Hmmm. I thought maybe see if a goat as old as Pete (5)years old would still still take a nipple bottle for water only. ???
Well, after a little dribble on his nose he latched onto the bottle nipple and sucked it down fast.
============================
Something to think about when walkabout.
Carry a water bottle with a nipple on it for giving your goats a drink when on the trails for the goats .
You can fill the bottle from a stream/lake rather than have to make a goat go to a strange water source also you can add electrolytes to the water and make sure the goat drinks them.
Just some Trail thoughts.
