[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 30446"] I don't understand the "(without going broke worming)" part of this. Goats need to be dewormed as often or more so than cattle. From the people I've talked to in TX it seems like they are on 4 -8 week doses. AND they are given either double or tripple the cattle dose. So an adult boer doe will get the same or higher dose as a 500 lb calf. Goats will eat woody plant material; they may kill or weaken the plant by stripping the bark off larger trees and eating smaller branches. Not all of them are hard to keep in. If you get ones that are trained to an electric fence you can move them around in smaller areas until you get that eaten down then rotate the fence ................. Just remember goats are more easily taken down by stray dogs or predators. [/QUOTE]
