Feeding babies. You will find as many tables, charts, rations and plans for bottle feeding baby goats as there are experts. A basic rule of thumb to go by is 10 (to 12) per cent of body weight per day. For example, if the kid weighs 20 pounds, it should have two pounds or 32 ounces per day.
Indeed in almost every scientific study conducted on the grazing preferences of goats, when fresh green grass is available, the goats have eaten more than 50% of their diet as green grass. In Victoria, during spring, my studies showed that Angora and cashmere goats consumed more than 80% of their diet as green grass. The writers of the Billy Goat Gruff story had really observed what goats ate. Is green grass good for goats? Yes, green grass is the generally the most nutritive food available for goats and it is the cheapest food. During spring the green pasture is usually about 80% digestible and has a crude protein content of 20%. Most of the fibrous parts of the pasture are still quite digestible by the goat.
