| FEEDING GUIDE FOR PYGMY
GOATS
Pygmy goats thrive on routine so should be fed at the same
time each day. It is advisable to feed them twice per day,
splitting the mix evenly between each meal. The rest of their
daily diet should be made up of good quality hay, which can
be made available at all times for them to help themselves.
Make sure that clean, fresh water is also available at all
times.
Remember that THE AMOUNTS IN THE TABLE BELOW ARE GUIDES
ONLY. Each pet is an individual and needs to be treated as
such.
