When to stop grain
#10
I fed a little grain to my boys when they were growing like crazy during the rut last fall and they were all losing weight from chasing girls. Cuzco gets grain every day now that he's old (he got none when he was in his prime). It helps him keep weight in the winter and it's the only practical way to make him eat his arthritis medicine.

I also give grain to any skinny goats that need building up, and I give grain to the girls if I'm milking them or if they're losing condition while pregnant.
