Thanks, its good to know there is something useful to go with the
hay.
I've read that dog and cat poop is bad for compost, but livestock
manure is good. Why is that?

The possibility of disease being spread from cat and dog faeces. Cats
and dogs spread a lot of quite diseases to humans whereas the grazing
animals zoonoses are n0ot quite as easily spread through the
composting process - it needs a more hands on cantact with the grazers
usually.

They don't get out in the summer for a few reasons. The vet told me
that all that dry grass does not have much nutritional value. Also,
they just wont eat it.

But goats are browsers not really grass eaters. They like to eat
bushes ans shrubs and are less interested in grass that bushes. Your
vet should know that.
