    Hi Josh, with leaving the bags open do you have a problem with the varmints getting into the feed? Thank you for explaining about flushing the goats. I have only seen this done with a sheep channel I watch. Thank you for sharing! Hugs and love to you and your family. ❤️✝🤗 Have a beautiful and blessed week. God Bless ❤️✝🤗

      We don’t have problems with that. We put a heavy pallet on to of the bag so that helps. Hopefully we will get a grain buggy. Thanks for watching

    Is this the only time you feed the 16%? What do you feed on a daily routine?

    • @BoisDArcKikos
      @BoisDArcKikos  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Right now while the grass is green we don’t feed. We flush a month before breeding then a month before kidding we feed it. We feed a little while kids are nursing too.

    You have some beautiful does! Are they all 100% kikos, or do you keep crosses as well? What do you look for in a doe/doeling to keep in your herd?

    Do you do anything for your bucks to prep them for breeding? Copper bolus, vaccine boosters, feed changes? I'm new to goats this year andcill be getting a few kikos in a couple weeks. We also have LaManchas I'll be breeding in the Fall.

    I have a question if you don't mind. I have limited acreage and can't rotate effectively but to help control parasites would a dry lot with good hay and grain as needed work as basically nothing on the ground to eat? Thanks. Great goats and operation you have.

    • @BoisDArcKikos
      @BoisDArcKikos  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yea that would work too. Dry lot with good hay and feed will most definitely flush them before breeding. Thanks for watching

    Good information! We have been feeding our does/bucks every other day some grain along with pasture...we want to breed in December, so we have April kids...so should we up the feed to daily 2 weeks before breeding as well? Also loved seeing Cowboy's Dad out there...Cowboy is just a great lgd...very very pleased with him!

    On average, when one of your doe's produce only a single kid, is there a significant difference in growth rate vs one having twins or triplets?

      Yes a big difference. Singles out weight all other kids

      @@BoisDArcKikos - I care for a disabled woman (wheelchair bound) who still wants to homestead - she wants to get some goats for clearing the underbrush in the forest we live in. I think she wants to get Spanish goats. Says they need nothing but a LGD to watch over them. I feel they will need *some* care. Do you have any insights to share? They will not be my goats, and I'm not keen on having to care for them, but once they get here, I know I'll step up to the plate.
