During my quest to gain even the most basic grasp on goat nutrition I keep finding myself questioning the quality of the water they receive.    For Dairy goats it is without a doubt as equally important as their food and may even play a pivotal role mineral nutrition.  Water is absolutely vital for milk production. But how does the water that I so diligently monitor several times a day affect their mineral nutrition?  I found a great article from North Dakota State University  In the coming weeks I will be sending samples of my water in to be tested and would love to share the results and how they alter my approach to mineral supplementation.
