Not because its greasy or fatty - but because they usually have an odor! By degreasing, you will reduce it significently! I definately recommend using a good degreasing agent on it!
Hello Chris,
What Mr Rittel did not mention in his response is the fact that "Super Safety Solvent", a Rittel Product, is one of the best Degreasers out there. It will do a geat job on your goat as I'm in total agreement with Mr. Rittel, You should degrease the hide.Sheep and goats have a tendency to have a foul, musk oder to them and a good degreaser/eliminator will definately reduce this odor almost, if not totally! Many Supply Co.'s out there, including VanDyke's offer this product.
If you would like any more info on this,you can call me at (1-800)843-3320 ext.105 or e-mail at this address.
Have a great day,
