How do I keep my momma goat from head butting my lamb??

Question

My goat has a baby that is going to be 1 in Jan. How do I keep my goat from head butting my lamb that lives in the same cage??

Answer 1

You should separate them into pens close to eachother. Mothers are protective, so it is only endangering the sheep that it's with the goat. Put them ito different pens. Put the goat and the baby in one pen and the sheep in another. Keep them so that they can look through the fence at eachother so they can get used to eachother. Once the baby has grown a bit, put the sheep back in the pen with the other two. Since they've been separated by a see-through fence, they should be able to get used to eachother in the same pen.

Answer 2

the dam, (mother goat) does not want the lamb around, because it doesn't belong to her. she's telling it to go back to her "momma" or ewe. they shouldn't be in cages but pens, with some foliage. goats are browsers. the lamb needs to have it's own pen. with a ewe that will "raise it"

Answer 3

they shouldn't be in a cage, they should be in seperate pens. The lamb should be weened by now, so there is no reason for them to be in the same pen. It is probaly just a territorial thing for the mother.
