    Housing goats with chickens?

    We have been looking at getting a goat. And we know somone who is getting rid of the entire herd. They have offer us one dwaft male. We can’t place a separate shelter with the amount of snow of the ground though. Does anyone house their goats with their chickens?

    worried about my EE
