Wow it's so long since I posted on this thread I'm hanging my head in shame. This is how my fodder came out in some of my first batches when I finally got it right. With the warmer weather I actually had to guard against the barley fermenting.
I actually had a big storm in early July that...
Thanks for the info, I was able to look it up on the internet but so far cant find any for sale in my area. I'll keep trying but this is kind of a sleepy place...

I've always loved goats, their cleverness...
