125 | Why Goats Eat Brush: The Biology Behind What We're Seeing in the Sagebrush
from Goat Wise | Meat Goats, Feeding Goats, Goat Fencing, Livestock Management · host Millie Bradshaw, MS – Animal Scientist & Rancher
Last week I gave you the field report on what we're seeing with the virtual fence in the sagebrush. Today I want to answer the question I get asked all the time: When will goats eat brush, and does season matter? What I've learned is that for goats, that question has a very different answer than most people expect. And the biology behind it is more interesting than I anticipated. Let's get to it.
