I usually give my dry and senor kids Nutrena Senor horse feed because it has the recommended amount of nutrients and omega fatty acids 3 and 6 in it. Hope this helps I try to find the brand I still need to find out.:)

It has ingredients in it that are for dairy goats such as BOSS, molasses, barley, and Vitamin A,D,E but it also has ingredients in it for horses which I found out are really good for goats such as rice bran, dried alfalfa, omega fatty acids and others.
