Baby goats, or kids, can be introduced to hay and grain around 2 to 3 weeks of age, as they start to show interest in solid food and begin to nibble. Initially, offer small amounts of high-quality hay, like alfalfa or clover, to help them transition from milk to solid food. Gradually introduce grain, making sure it’s specifically formulated for goats, to support their growth and development. Always ensure they have access to fresh water and monitor their intake to prevent digestive issues.
