How to Weigh Pack Goats

How to weigh pack goats is a crucial skill to know. In this video I talk about the importance of weighing your pack goat and having a scale. I also talk about how to make a nervous goat do what you want and have it go well using patience and love.  Weighing your goats will help you know how much you can put on them, how much de-wormer or medication to give them and also makes for a super easy way to get panniers ready in your garage.

Also when asking a goat to do something he hasn't done before be patient and loving with him...aggression will always backfire...use love.
