There is a lot to learn about taking care of goats. But I've neared done most of it to a month by month to do list in the above video.
Things like trimming hooves is important and needs to be done multiple times a year. It's easier to schedule it and get use to it. If you are breeding, set the hoof trimming around the breeding schedule.
I've also shown "Milking season" in the video. Most people unfamiliar with goats (and cows) don't know that this is a set time in the year that you milk.
Clean the barn every 1-2 weeks. This is just a quick cleaning to remove manure and wasted food/hay. The barn needs to be deep cleaned in the fall and spring. Deep cleaning includes scrubbing and peroxiding the floors and walls. Also, soak all food and water containers in vinegar for a few hours.
I will add more details later, this is get a quick reference to goat care.
