On this episode, co-host Katy Starr and guest expert Dr. Reid Redden explore the intricacies of raising sheep and goats, including:
- Differences and similarities between raising ruminant and non-ruminant species, particularly sheep and goats
- Why some sheep are actually deficient in copper because of the fear of “copper toxicity”
- The most common struggles sheep and goat owners face
Their discussion covers everything from the common myth that “goats will eat anything” to essential advice, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in entering the world of small-scale livestock ranching or even backyard sheep or goat ownership.
