My goats are 14 weeks old and oh boy do they love to eat! We have one section of the property that is overgrown with a bunch of small trees/large bushes. They get a bunch of those branches daily (they strip the leaves and some of the bark off), there are weeds growing that they really like. I found this out when they cleared a section of weeds by the fence in about two days of what was there. I harvest a bunch from around the property (plus other weeds) daily for them. And they each get about 1/2 cup of feed in the afternoon.
My question is this: Can I overfeed them with forage? I know I can with feed, so we're keeping that to a minimum. I know they're growing, but I want to make sure we're not overfeeding them. Thanks.
