Hill Country, as in Annette and Everitt Maze? So you mean if I call Annette whom I have known for 15 years she is going to tell me that she uses UREA to feed her goats? Annette.... the original dairy goat Nubian guru of all time, who used to sit in the milkroom and feed her does skittles candies that were dumped at her farm in bulk, feeds urea to her goats now? I mixed skittles into the feed of two such animals for weeks, to get them to even THINK about eating their grain here!
The goat industry is a very small one indeed, and I don't take seriously any post from anybody who won't use a real name and real email address. Nobody on this board asking questions has commerical stock, nobody with commerical stock on this board, be it milk or meat is going to be asking basic nutritonal information, and any REPUTABLE breeder would not give out information to a newbie that could kill their goat. And urea is deadly to goats unless you understand how and when to feed it. I do these boards to give back, to some of the very people that you name dropped on your post. Everyone posts their opinions for what works for them on these boards and my opinion on Urea is..... Unless you have a very good realtionship with a goat nutritionist at the mill in which you are feeding, and they have or you have a degree in SMALL ruminent nutrition, the feeding of UREA is dangerous....I also feed no fish and feather meal. I would not knowingly purchase milk or meat from a producer who uses this stuff either.
This is a nice little board, it doesn't need to turn into a pissing contest between breeders. There are plenty of yahoo groups to do that on. And I do enjoy that part of the goat world also! Vicki
