Farm living with goats...
Here is a series of videos I took from two days ago on the farm. Had 3 goats get out of their enclosure but thankfully they have no interest in wandering away... they stay right by home.
Most of them are fainting goats with the exception of one. I hope you enjoy the following presentation. Hit the right arrow to view the next short video. I’m new to owning goats… these was my goat adventure from yesterday. |

My daughter in law’s grandparents raised goats for years.
My great grandmother raised goats and that’s where I learned how to milk them. My ulcers thank goats milk They’ll eat through the thorniest brush there is and when it’s gone they’ll start on the bark on the trees., so you have to either have to feed them or move them. It’s just the way they are, God bless them. sec

The one thing I'm having an issue with is that they love going into the field next door instead of my 6 acres worth of pasture. Thankfully, my neighbor doesn't mind my goats coming over. |

I've never eaten any Goat but I did have some Lamb Chops last night. Don't know it the meat is similar or not.

Not only that but they take 2/3 of the feed to produce as much meat as cows do. The breed I raise (Fainting Goats) even more so as it has the highest meat to bone/organ ratio of all goats. https://ontariogoat.ca/wp-content/up...at-Farming.pdf |

Added another 5 goats to the herd today. Poppy and Penelope are still babies and won't be ready for Wayne for another few months. Fern, Maggie and Tulip are all just over 2 years old and have been exposed to a male goat. We are fairly certain that Fern and Tulip are pregnant and Maggie may be as well but isn't really showing it. If she is... its probably gonna be a single.
I feel like I got a really good deal on these as I may be very well be getting 8-10 registered goats for the price of 5. Their names will change to be brought in line with my Letterkenny naming structure. Tannis Cassie Tassie Anik Marie-Frédérique (Marie-Fred for short) More goats arrive on the farm |

I think that is worse than getting a bug bite.

BABIES!!!
![]() The black one on the right is a girl and her name is T'Pol (to keep with the Star Trek naming structure). The one on the left is a boy and his name likely foretells his future. He is called Panini. Link to video that won't embed. https://imgur.com/V4gNMBo |
