]]>We recently converted a small storage shed over to good goat housing. It is great, except that the floor is dirt. While it’s great for the goats’ comfort, it’s a pain to clean out - I can’t get all the manure or wetness out without digging and digging. Some day I would like to pour cement in there, just so it’s easier to clean, but in the meantime, I was wondering if anyone had the same issues? What do you do to keep your goat’s dirt floor clean?
Thanks ]]>
My name is Dave Bérubé and my girlfriend and I operate a meat goat farm now for a year and a half. We raise Kiko, Spanish, Boer and Nubians. We raise purebreds and hybrids. Our goal is to produce Nubian/spanish crosses and Texas Genemaster. I am also the new Meat goat comity coordinator of the Syndicat des producteurs de chèvres du Québec (Quebec goat farmers syndicate). So, I am inviting you to visit two facebook pages. One to exchange with breeders in Québec about the breeding, nutrition, genetic and everything and the second one, is ours! So, have a nice surfing and let us know your opinion or your experiences.
