Management

Feed Concentrates

use in the milking parlour only as attractant; helps to reduce restlessness and pushing in the waiting area; provide concentrate only in the feeding area so that the goats have enough time to ingest it
provide concentrate from an automatic dispenser with front exit
when providing concentrate at feed barriers:
- headlocks keep goats in place
- blinds between goats prevent fights and injuries
- check functionality of headlocks regularly; all goats must be securely locked in because loose individuals could attack fixed goats
