requirements in goat kids feedlot

Goat kids in a feedlot need a steady, balanced ration with good clean water all the time. For fattening, keep the feed around sixty percent concentrate and forty percent roughage from three months to twelve months of age. Use good quality green fodder like Napier, Berseem, or Lucerne, and dry fodder like hay or straw. For adult goats, give about one hundred fifty to two hundred fifty grams concentrate per day for maintenance, and add another one hundred fifty to two hundred fifty grams during late pregnancy, lactation, or fast growth. Mix mineral mixture at two percent and salt at one percent in the concentrate. Do not change the diet suddenly. If you want, I can help you plan the exact ration for your kid’s age and weight.
