106 | Watering Setup: Troughs, Buckets, and the Problems That Get Goats Killed
About this episode
This episode discusses the physical setup for watering goats and the potential problems that can arise.
Today we're getting into the physical setup for watering goats, what you put water in, how deep, how many, and the specific problems that can kill kids and trap horned goats. I covered the big picture in Episode 9, water as the most important nutrient, monitoring intake, why goats are picky about water quality, and how we haul water for rotational grazing. This episode goes deeper into the actual hardware, the configurations we use, and some mistakes that were expensive enough to remember.
