Twins and triplets should not be grouped with singles since stronger kids often rob milk from usually smaller multiple-birth kids. Groups should contain kids of similar age. A good health care program includes vaccination for most diseases and should be established between a grower and a veterinarian. Goats' hooves may need to be trimmed, depending on walking conditions. Rocky ground may take care of that problem.
Goats like to go under or through obstacles.
Five-wire electric fences, with three wires hot and two grounded, make a good system. Small-mesh fencing also may be used. Horns caught in the fence or the crotch of a tree become life-threatening, not only from predators but also from other goats. While most goats are not aggressive toward humans, they are not always kind to other goats and in seconds can be serious or lethal damage with their horns. For safety, both for the handler and for other animals, horns' sharp points may be clipped, using a bolt cutter or similar device.
