Building a hay feeder for goats.

Cost is the price of a panel and a few zip ties. You need at least one commercial box feeder for every four goats. My husband built me a epic goat feeder. Works best in larger areas since it does take up some room.

The simple hay feeder outlined here will feed about 10 goats. Cattle rings and standard bunk feeders are too large and cumbersome to be practical for the small livestock farmer. Special hayracks and bunk feeders designed for such creatures are often hard to find and very expensive. This was one of my first attempts at a hanging feeder.

The goat hay feeder s dimensions are 11 x 11 x 11 inches and it s specially designed for sheep and goats storing a really good amount of hay.

Often one or two goats drive others away from a feeding area so you may want to make hay available in at least two locations in each goat area. These walls are slats instead of solid.
