I know this is a lamb forum....but also know a lot of you have goat experience. When we bought my daughter's goats, the breeder said they should gain 10lbs. a month. The wether weighed 35lbs. when we got him a month ago. Weighed him yesterday and he weighs 56.6lbs. That is 21 lbs. in a month. He is being fed 1lb of feed morning and night, and nothing else. He finishes his feed quickly and is always ready for his next feeding! Should I be trying to slow him down now, or will he slow down as the weather gets hotter?
