I have two ND bucklings. We got them in spring and the nights are getting colder. How do you all keep your goats warm in the winter?

I built a 6x6 box and loaded it with straw. They live in a concrete block barn. Anything else I should do?

You could always get them goat coats if it gets too cold.

That should work. I use to use a similar type of building for my doe and her daughter. I just put straw down like you did and closed the whole shed at night. They never came out in the AM looking cold

thats another reason to have at least two goats so that they can keep each other warm. we live in nh and i think your block building should be just fine.

Is there glass in the windows? As long as they can completely get out of the elements and be in a draft free area with lots of straw for bedding, they should be ok.
