Joy, all of my goats love Black Oil Sunflowerseeds! I give each of them a scoop full each day, I use a lundry scoop. The milkers get a scoop on the milk stand also. We purchase baking soda in 50 pound bags and just pour a large pile in the bottom of the bunker type feeders, beside the pile of loose cattle minerals. You could just get a box at the grocery store, and put a pile of it in the corner of a covered feeder. Are you using ammonium Chloride in your grain or giving it to them seperatly. This will help them from ever getting Urinary Calculi, stones, which can kill them. It's easiest to have it already mixed in the feed, but if you need it you can order it from pipevet.com and just give each of them 1 teaspoon per day, mixed into their grain. Good luck with your wethers! Vicki
