That's one way to keep them friendly though!

I do a PVC feeder as well but use a long PVC pipe and pour it in the top. My goats tend to stand on the feeder so I have to hang it pretty tight so mine are glued.

Straw Hat, what kind of mineral do you use?

Do you use one like this? That's how they were going to be but we didn't need them that big and you have to put alot in it just to get to eating level.

I use Manna Pro Goat Mineral It's not that bad a price and we only have eleven goats here.

Yes. You are right, but it is too big. The goats can't knock it off though. I like yours better. I wonder if you can get a screw on top?

Mana pro. Hmmm. I use that but my goats don't like it much. I tried one a while back and they really liked it. I am going to try and find it again.

Why would you put a screw cap on it? So they can't have access all the time?

All of them seem to like it. Alana never eats it and Sis does a little but instead of licking it quickly like everyone else, she sticks her tongue out like 3 or 4 inches to grab just a tiny bit!! lol It is very funny looking. But they all seem to do good on it but I have never seen Alana eat it and only gotten her to eat it from my hands once. :/ Bad goat.

Yours has a push on cap to screw to the post. They fit snug together, but my goats tend to climb on stuff and would likely knock it the two parts apart eventually. If the two parts screwed together then that would not be an issue. Then I could unscrew them to clean. Instead of having to glue the parts together.

Oh yes, you can do that but it will cost more. You will need the right elbow for that kind, a screw on cap, and an adapter. All that costs more but you can do it.

I think I am going to try it. I definitely like yours better. Cheaper in the long run as it will use less minerals to fill.
