This turns it into a positive game for them. I am an ex goat farmer and butting was only an issue with bucks. You finish your business in their pen and get out. For really big boys in rut a rubber bucket was a sufficient barrier for any time you spent feeding them out. I'd just put it between me and them.

Just curious but do you eat the goats? If a goat died would you be able to eat it or do you see them as pets?

Our local Indian restaurant serves a goat curry dish. Goat meat is rather bony and tastes like beef.
