We have goats at school. They really need very little but they do need a shelter from the rain-nothing fancy but it should keep them totally dry and clean water to drink. As for food they don’t ‘need’ pellets. Hay is much cheaper and lasts longer and the rats don;t care for it as much as they do pellets! I do feed my goats goat food but I can afford it and have no storage problems, it would not be neglectful IMHO to not feed them ‘feed’ as long as they have food around them to eat and get hay everyday. They should have a nice round belly if they are being taken care of. I am going to get my guys some food this week, I’ll drop off a couple of bales-I buy it wrapped in plastic for about a $1 more but it is compack and stores easily so I’ll get them some of that. I’ll see if I can go in and check on the goats too if they will let me.
