Fenceing off a goat is one of the oldest jokes in the world – but laughable when it comes to the law. „It is the legal duty of an owner to properly lock up his goats. If you don`t, not only can you be held civilly liable for any damage the goats might cause, but in some states, like Tennessee, there is criminal liability that depends on the violation. „Reasonable measures are the best defence of a goat owner. It is advisable to build a fence that meets the standards of the goat farming community and maintain this fence. Any negligence on your part will not only leave a hole in your fence, but also a hole in your defense! If you regularly post your goat on social media on the run — and create a history of risk neglect — you`ll have little defense if there`s a complaint.

You also agree that it is your responsibility to read the full list of items before making any decision to purchase an item. The supply of drugs and dosage recommendations for unlabelled drugs for goats are also prohibited.

For practice and prescribing limits, contact your state veterinary association. www.amva.org board warns you that before you buy the first goat, check your state laws, local zoning, and ordinances. „Google searches – even credible lawyer sites – can be dangerous. You may receive advice that is not specific to your condition or situation. „There are different definitions of land use, as well as allowable stocking rates (animal units per acre), depending on how your area is zoned. Some areas allow goats – some areas allow goats with conditions. Find out before you grow up.
Experienced goat owners will confirm – „goat math“ is real. Not only in the multiplier of offspring – but the desire for more and more goats. „Donna and I started with two goats and thought, `This is going to be fun!` In three years, we had 100 goats. without our babies expected in November. Fortunately, their territory has allowed for expansion. In addition to taking care of the goat, if you decide to welcome visitors to your goat farm or engage in „agritourism“, it is important to realize that farming carries an inherent risk – large equipment, tools, rough terrain, electric fences, chemicals, medicines, the list is endless – and most visitors are unaware of the dangers. „Bringing people to your farm is a good thing – I don`t want to discourage that.“ In fact, Brett and Donna are looking forward to welcoming visitors to their farm. While many states have agritourism laws in place to protect farmers, they do not protect against reckless or deliberate acts – or negligence. Before inviting guests, it`s important to address security concerns. Signage can be useful to signal risks: electric fence, keeping outside, closed area, etc., but does not completely relieve the farm host of any responsibility towards his guests.
