We give our unshelled sunflower seeds, the kind you buy for bird feed. And if you have a handful of them the goat will follow you where ever you want it to go. Tom

I raise Oberhasli's and mine love raisins. I buy the big bag at Sam's Club and they each get a small amount every day. They also get carrots and apple slices during the spring and summer and I buy horse treats called Nicker Makers (a purina product) as a treat. These are small cookies with corn and molasses in them. Some of the horse treats are just too big for goats, but these are a nice size. I have a friend who treats her goats with M&M's (peanut) or with red licorice. But, I try to stick with a more healthy type of treat.

yeah, Reese loves sweeta, but I wanted something helathy for him. Thanks oberhasli1, and Tom, for the help.

Reese also loves raisins. I forgot to mention that. But, he won't eat carrots or apples. I tried feeding him lettuce and broccoli too, but he won't touch it. I think Reese might like the Nicker Makers. I might get him some. Where do you get them at?

I buy the Nicker Makers at our local feed store. Most feed stores that deal in Purina products probably have them. Also we have a Big R Store that is probably a western chain-type store that also carries horse cookie type treats. I just make sure that the "cookies" are not too big. I bought a box of treats one time and the treats were huge! I couldn't even break them in half. The Nicker Makers are about the size of a small bit-o-honey candy. My goats love them. The cost is $10.99 for a bucket with about 200 cookies. It will last me about 3 weeks.

My pigmey goats love bread but it has to be toasted, they don't like carrots or apples unless they see the horse eating them then they want some too.

when i had goats, their favorite treat was marshmallows. the llamas don't care for them but the horses will climb a tree for them. :)

well you haven't seen anything until you see a goat eat peanut butter!!! There tongues must be a foot long.

LOL, I know! My neighbors use to have several goats and when I went to their house to feed the donkeys I would bring a load of bread and put some peanut butter on it and the goats would eat some too! It was funny!

Most of the horses I know love peppermint candies, so maybe goats would too....
