Can Goats Eat Garlic?

Published in Goat Health 1 min read

Yes, goats can eat garlic, and it may even be beneficial for them in small quantities.

Garlic is known for its anti-fungal and antibiotic properties. Many goat owners incorporate it into their goats' diets, typically offering a fresh clove per day.

Here's how you might administer garlic to goats:

  • Fresh Clove: Offer a single clove of garlic per goat daily.
  • Crushed in Feed: Crush the garlic and mix it into their regular feed.
  • Garlic Water: Place a few cloves in their water trough (replace weekly). This can also benefit chickens and sheep.

While garlic can be beneficial, moderation is key. Too much garlic can cause health problems. Observe your goats for any adverse reactions after introducing garlic into their diet.
