I have a foot to 2 ft of straw in my goat pen and the goat pen is good and sealed up except for the little bitty door Gap and it is about -3 and my goats are shivering a little bit. I am feeding them alfalfa and grass hay but they are still shivering and I don't know how to keep that from happening I heard you're not supposed to give them heat or covers cuz it will make it worse but it's hard to sit by and watch them so cold. Any ideas?

I would suggest to up their feed intake a little on those cold days. A deep bedding. They will make it through.
