Homesteading | Protecting goats from cold weather with a rubber tarp 🐐🤠
Hello dear friends
Greetings of love from me to you lovers of goat farming and some other pets, greetings of love for all our pets.
Lately in my rural area experiencing a continuous winter this makes a shepherd near my house a little worried about his livestock, namely goats that he has been raising for almost a month more he spends his daily life to continue in the farm by taking care of his goats in various ways to anticipate weather like this that can make goats uncomfortable when winter or rain falls at night, Although at night there is a fire or smoke surrounding the farm or cage, but it does not work to anticipate this kind of situation so that some goats look very lethargic and not eager to move, All ways have been tried to be able to provide the best care for their livestock by a herder.
As an animal lover, I also know this concern, but I took the initiative to search some farming media on the internet about cage care to anticipate cold weather at night, because with cold weather goats do not seem to like this situation, therefore there must be ventilation or additional to be able to protect the cage from the cold at night, I was very happy when I saw in one of the farms that I had encountered, on the side of the farm or the cage of the goat covered with a large rubber cloth or tarpaulin this is a powerful way to be able to protect from weather like this, goats do not like the cold at night, by surrounding a large rubber tarp around the cage will make the goat feel comfortable and warm at night.
When the weather is cold like this, maybe this is the best way to raise goats, and make sure there is a small smoking fire every night and fresh food or grass at all times, because goats will always eat regardless of the time of day or night. When grass feed is available in the goat pen, the goat will feel comfortable and the goat development process will be faster for the goat's growth
I hope this goat farming will run smoothly and you can get goat seeds for the next year and the goats will give birth to healthy goat kids, that's all from me, see you next day, greetings from me @macro1997 🤠🥰🐐

Goat from both rural and urban areas are not good to be exposed to cold weather's as it gets them cold and sometimes can lead to their death. It's good to have smoke around them at least to keep their body worm.
You are right @agbogo at night there is always smoke around the cage
