So today I fed everyone as normal. We are in Florida so cold weather here is rare. But we sometime dip into the 30s and 40s and today was the day. I separated my babies, bringing them inside to sleep. I know some of my fellow goat owners and breeders up north routinely keep their herd in negative degree weather and their goats are fine. The shelters are adequate and warm but I can’t help but worry. I worry that they will be cold. Specially two of my little ones, Merlin and Pym who have not bonded with anyone yet. They are the most vulnerable.

I just want them to be safe. So here are the issue we face in Florida. Weather about 35 degrees. If my goats have not experienced this before I worry about it. What about you?

Hi Kayla,

I am not familiar with a protocol to do this however I am contacting a few members to see if they know.

 

Thank you
