Goats are ruminant animals.
The similarities of a ruminant and a non-ruminant digestive system is that they all have only one stomach, and the same organs that make up the whole digestive system complex. The difference between a ruminant and a non-ruminant is that a ruminant has four chambers in that stomach and a non-ruminant has a simple stomach (one stomach comprising of one chamber).
No. A chicken is a non ruminant because it does not have four chambers in its digestive system.

The palomino horse a monogastric digestive system, (it has a single stomach with a single stomach chamber, as opposed to a ruminant digestive system, which has a four-chambered stomach. )
In the small intestine, carbohydrates, fats and proteins are being emulsified with the help of some digestive enzymes.
The four compartments of the ruminant stomach are, oral to aboral, the rumen, the reticulum, the omasum and the abomasum. The rumen's function is to ferment the vegetation. The reticulum is the storage place for non-food items that were ingested (nails, wires, bolts, etc.). The omasum removes most of the water that was incorporated into the ingesta in the rumen. The abomasum is the glandular compartment that secretes acid and begins to digest the proteins in the ingesta.
The digestive system of ruminants consists of four stomach.
A monogastric has only one stomach whereas with the ruminant its stomach is made up of four compartments - the rumen, reticulum, omasum and abomasum.
Cattle, sheep, goats, buffalo, bison, deer, elk, moose, etc.
Poultry and swine are not ruminant animal because their digestive system is different than these types of animals. A ruminant's stomach has four compartments. Likewise, ruminants belong to the suborder Ruminantia. Poultry and swine are monogastrics, or have a single-compartment stomach.
The digestive systems of placental mammals varies depending their diets, however, the primary digestive tracts are those with a simple stomach (mono gastric) and those with complex stomachs(ruminant).
