Non-ruminant farm animals include the following (I'll list more than three here for you):
Goats are ruminant animals.
characteristic of non ruminant animals
Ruminant animals have a complex stomach with four compartments that allows them to regurgitate and re-chew their food, aiding in digestion. Non-ruminant animals have a simpler, single-chambered stomach. Ruminants also have a symbiotic relationship with microorganisms in their stomach that help break down cellulose in their diet.
Most grains that are fed to non-ruminants (like pigs and farm fowl) are very similar to those that are fed to cattle. Grains like corn, wheat and barley are commonly used as animal feed for all animals. It's what's added to the feed that makes it different for ruminant and non-ruminant animals. For instance, animal byproducts and bone meal can be fed to pigs and chickens, whereas for cows and sheep, it's strictly prohibited because of concerns over BSE.

The peccary (which is a species of wild pig) is a non-ruminant like all other pigs.
They both have only one stomach, and primarily pertain to the differences in digestive systems between mammals, not avians, reptiles or amphibians. Ruminants have a four-chambered stomach, whereas non-ruminants have a simple stomach.
No, a pig is not a herbivore, as it consumes both plants and animal products in its diet. Additionally, pigs are non-ruminant animals because they have a single-chambered stomach, unlike ruminants which have multiple chambers allowing them to digest plant material more efficiently.
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 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).
Non ruminant. Examples of ruminants are cattle, sheep, goats, deer.Interesting fact though : There is one species of monkey that is ruminant, at least, comparably so: colobinae
They are based on 1. Ruminant(for chambers of stomach) 2. Non-Ruminant(1 chamber of stomach)
