Buy a Bale

Using straw bales for a goat enclosure offers several benefits that can help improve the comfort, health, and overall well-being of our goats. Here are some of the key advantages:

 Insulation and Comfort

Straw bales provide excellent insulation, helping to regulate temperature within the enclosure. In colder months, the bales help trap warmth, keeping your goats cozy. During hot weather, they can provide some cooling effects by allowing air to circulate through the straw, preventing the space from getting too hot.  Although our barn is insulated, additional temperature regulation support always helps.

 Cost-Effective and Sustainable

They are also biodegradable and sustainable, which makes them an eco-friendly choice. Once they degrade, they can be used as compost for gardens or fields.

 Comfortable Bedding

Straw bales offer goats a soft, absorbent surface to rest on. This helps keep the floor dry, reducing the risk of foot problems or infections. The natural properties of straw are effective at absorbing moisture from urine, contributing to a cleaner and more hygienic environment.
