The next five pages - "Adult Goat ID" - are for keeping a quick simple log of your goat herd. This section includes a table to write a goat ID, their sex, their date of birth, and quick description or source of purchase.The final section, which makes up the majority of this book, is dedicated to "Individual Records." These pages allow for greater detail.
