On Feeders: Why is there a large opening on the side?

• Have a goat named Noah who has a horn flare, that’s his spot
• Noticed that only one goat would eat there at a time
• Larger opening for hay feeding

Water Trough Cleanings, is this a must-do?

• Baby goat’s water is cleaned every day
• Older goats, no not diligent, in fact never had a health concern, we do not have moss that grows in our troughs.
• Set up troughs higher than their butts: use a log for them to use their front legs to stand to drink
• Cleans 1 or 2 times a month by spraying out
• Do clean out often if there is poop
