Driving..

Ok, I have goats, and you can actually train them to drive! I have a harness set that im saving up for ($194 w/o shipping/tax) and im really liking it!!

BUT it comes with a bit :?:?, im unsure of what to do! I have a yearling wether (gelding), and buy the time i finish up saving, ill have another yearling wether. I also have a 5/6 mo. Buck (stallion) that will be in training to drive.

I havent found a cart, but im on the lookout for a mini cart, and will happily buy one for the right price.

------
Anyways, im looking for tips on the bit, and what to do if they have a freak attack?! I know to calm them down and star slow, but my guys love me and are pretty easy going. Anything i should lookout for?

I truthfully know my guys and theyre great and i just posted here because its basically training a horse to drive. Theyre both prey animals, both have hooves, etc etc.

Thanks
Anny

i have mini's that i drive besides from riding horses, i have heard and seen goats being driven, but they dont pull alot...and they always drive with a halter on them, goats wont tolerate a bit (but if your brave you can try). you can disconnect the reins from the bridle and place them on the halter, that will work the same.
