â¢ Mow your lawn so that the grass sits above the soil line. Ideally, it should stand at an inch to an inch and a half. This will allow your grass seed to get adequate sunlight and connect with the soil. â¢ Next, use a thatch rake or power rake to remove any thatch that you find, a process called dethatching.
1 Ornamental fescue varieties for lawns often contain endophytes which can cause health problems, including fatal toxicity, in livestock. Always use fescue varieties intended for livestock.  Goats should not be grazed extensively on pure stands of clover, due to the risk of bloating from the richness of the forage.
Post by bugsy123in on. My goats eat the bark of of trees quite often ....... some pines and definately the cherry trees. They are on the sweet lix so I wouldn't say they are deficient in anything.My sweet feed does have corn in it and I believe in feeding corn in SMALL rations. Just as with any feed you can over do especially on whethers.ine eat the bark off the trees year round when they get bored. Mine are on an excellent ration of goat chow twice a day, hay free choice and free choice minerals and baking soda. I am sure it is not mineral related in my goats' case.
