Goats were not part of the traditional Brecknockshire farming scene until the rise of smaller ‘self-sufficient’ farms in the 1970s. Goats are ideal for smallholders as they provide milk and meat as well as being easier to manage than cattle. This rubber boot could be used to protect an injured or infected hoof. Nid oedd geifr yn rhan o gyd-destun ffermio Sir Frycheiniog tan gynnydd y ffermydd ‘hunangynhaliol’ llai yn y 1970au. Mae geifr yn ddelfrydol ar gyfer tyddynwyr oherwydd eu bod yn darparu llaeth a chig ac maent yn haws eu trin na gwartheg. Gellir defnyddio’r esgid rwber hwn i amddiffyn carn wedi’i anafu neu wedi ei heintio.
