		<title>Comment on Horns or No Horns on Goats &#8212; Which is Better? by Sharon</title>

		<description>We have a herd of about 45 goats.  A little over half of them have horns, the rest are polled other than 2 does that were purchased disbudded.  I have no problems having polled, horned &amp; disbudded goats all together.  They all know where they are in the pecking order and seem very content.  All of our current bucks are horned, though I&#039;ve owned a few polled bucks over the years and a disbudded buck once.  I prefer my bucks to have horns because the horns make great handles to hold on to for deworming &amp; hoof trimming.  In the 10 years we&#039;ve been raising goats I&#039;ve had 2 polled goats get their heads stuck in the fence and 1 of the two ended up dying of heat stress.  :-(  Yes, horned goats can get their heads stuck too, but generally they only get their heads stuck when they have shorter horns around the 9 - 14 month age range, plus I&#039;ve found that it&#039;s usually only 1-2 goats out of the whole group.  For those few goats who continue to get their head stuck we simply duct tape a short length of pvc pipe or a wooden dowel stick to their horns which prevents them from sticking their head through.  Once their horns grow a little longer their heads won&#039;t fit anymore.</description>
