NUTRITION (cont)

Fresh, clean water must always be available and can be provided in buckets or by an automatic watering system. Automatic watering is preferred to buckets because of goat's habit of overturning bowls. The automatic watering system should be periodically flushed and the water nipples checked daily to ensure that they are working properly.

Food containers and hay racks should be fixed to the side of the cage. The food containers should be cleaned daily.
