ride saddle or bareback?
have a pet boer goat he weighs about 350 pounds and he is 40 inches at the withers and my daughter and her friend both 14 like to ride him around like a horse they have managed to train him to carry both of the girls at a time and they can steer him now ( don't ask me how they did it cause i don't know) they ride him almost everywhere they go on the weekends. I even got them a saddle from ebay that is custom fitted to goats. but they think it is more fun to ride bareback shoul i let them?
The answer is that two 14 year old girls should not be riding a 350 pound animal. He can not carry more than 20% of his weight without him being uncomfortable and risking long-term damage to his back, feet, legs, etc. 20% of 350 pounds is 70 pounds. I seriously doubt that any 14 year old girl is under 70 pounds, let alone two of them combined. Please tell your daughter and her friend to stop riding your goat before they seriously hurt him.
