Hello all,

I am starting to get more confident with my newfound position as Goat-keeper Extraordinaire.
The herd has gone from a number of 3 to 15 in a matter of days!

However as result I am now looking into putting together my own feed. As a starting point i have heard that seaweed is really good for them and great as a mineral supplement.

As always, your thoughts please, the good, the bad and the ugly!

Many Taa's

Have always found seaweed to be a good supplement, and easy to get hold of as well. Someone I know said they had found that seaweed had worked well on improving a goat's feet (mild chronic laminitis) which I hadn't heard of before....

Seaweed isn't easy to get hold of if you live in the centre of the country!     Will the goats eat it as it is or do you do anything to it?  (Just in case anyone we know decides to have a day at the seaside).
