    You had me tearing up when you first brought Lidi her first baby. The way she looked at her baby then looked at you... Your face had love all over it. A touching moment. It's easy to see that you guys love your goats and take great care of them. Well done Lidi!!

    Absolute proof that our pregnant does should be checked 2x a day as they get closer to their dates. You are an amazing teacher, many of us have improved our skills and our herds because you have taken the time to show us how it should be done, from kidding to hoof trimming! Although I have not perfected the art of clipping, looks more like a rabid beaver got ahold of my poor goats 😂😂😂😂😂.

      I know! I remembered my Lemaze class breathing techniques! I’m sure anyone whose had a baby can sympathize. The goats are much more quiet though in general. I worked in a hospital and could sometimes hear the women in labor all the way down the hall and around the corner! Good times.

    So sweet! My son and his girlfriend just started goat farming and of the 4 goats there was 2 sets of twins and 2 singlets. Of the 6, there was only 1 girl. This was our first time birthing and they all did well. The first ones came when it was a balmy 25 below zero so we had the big Nipco heater roaring and lots of towels that we kept warming and exchanging to get them wiped down as fast as we could go because being wet in this kind of cold would drop their body temperature so quickly. These little animals are so amazing in what they can do all on their own. We kind of hovered with those first 2 as first time parents do but quickly realized that they really don’t need much intervention beyond that vigorous wipe down. We had nice little pens set up with a heat lamp and they were all cozy with mom and found the milk. We worried and wondered if they were getting anything but heard that if their tails were wagging that means they’re getting the milk and they certainly were wagging like crazy. It was such a fun experience and the start to many more to come once we get the herd built up. These goats are really such fun little animals with their own personalities.

    I agree with those people who said that you are the most professional, the most caring and knowledgeable goat owner. Some people think it’s enough to buy goats, have them reproduce and show it to people. They have no care in the world and keep those goats in poor conditions, dirty, sick and cold. I always recommend them to watch your videos so innocent goats do not need to suffer!!!
