Hey Ron!
I do not have personal experience amending soil with goat manure but it is a ruminate with lots of carbon in its stool.
If you are worried about pathogens then composting woukd be advised rather than fresh and if the manure was collected from a stall kept animal it may be soaked with nitrogen rich urine so it might burn roots applied fresh.
I would make a compost pile with some and a tea out of a small portion. Basically soak it in water for a couple weeks strain it and dilute with water to make a nutrient rich feed that isn't likely to burn the plants.
I hope that helps and I hope even more some that a few people with hands on experience with goat manure will chime in!
I have been using it for years. I let it compost like any other manure, horse, cow , chicken, and then put it on my garden. Works fine. I sometimes also put it on the garden in a thick mat of six inches or more in the fall and let it sit on my raised beds over the winter. My garden is all raised beds. The only manure i use fresh is rabbit.
