Hello, I have just finished watching all of your videos and have subscribed. Thank you for making them, I have enjoyed all of them and have even learned some. I am in southeast Kentucky and I am raising Kiko goats. We have 35 acres that I am currently using. The property is up in a hollar with no close neighbors with lots of brush. Yeah, that's why I went with goats. I free range mine, with an LGD (I know the majority of people can not do what I do). I find they typically make a circuit around "home base". They will typically head in one direction in the morning, come back to the barn to relax and chew their cud, head out in another direction in the afternoon, coming back just before feeding time. Yes, they are bucket trained and "cookie" trained, so they are easy to pen up at night. One thing that is a concern in my area for goats is water. I was told by our extension office that the majority of well water in our area is sulfur water. This inhibits the absorption of copper. It is recommended that rain water be used for goats. I have a rainwater catchment system on both my main barn and my goat barn which is hooked up to one of those automatic float valves. I notice that it has been 5 months since you last posted a video. I hope all is well and that you will be posting again. I am still fairly new at goats. It has been difficult to find good, quality, and informative videos that deal with goats.
Just wanted to express our gratitude for you sharing your knowledge. We are just south of Birmingham and we are diligently working to get our property ready for sheep next year. Keep the videos coming. Especially enjoyed the segment tying back to references of sheep from the Bible. We will be coming to you once we get everything ready. Thanks again !!
@@rollingofarm Hallelujah! Good to know your still out there! I just subscribed and watched all your videos. Will be looking for more in the future! So knowledgeable and informative, I can tell you have a lot of time invested in your farm. Wonderful!🌿🙏 from northeast Fl
Hello, we are still kinda new to sheep. Hoping to dress a couple of withers this fall. But I'm wondering, we have 2 ram sheep that I thot we would use for breeding but they're not as docile as we hoped. Can we still castrate them even though they are developed. One is 18 months and the other only 5 months but developed. We normally band small males. Any suggestions? Will the meat taste well? Use knife? Thank you
Sir Im trying to get into sheep farming since last 2 years. I would like to come get some lessons from you while I can help you for free. I live in Florida and I'm willing to learn do whatever it takes to learn farming. Let me know please
He don’t reply messages, I guess you should call him and request. You are smart to know that you should first learn then start farming. Let me know if you got any response from him. Thanks and good luck.

Good observation on the goats.
Hope all is well in Al too! From north east Fl

That is a awesome trailer, I’m starting my own sheep farm here in West Virginia. Great videos
I hope that you can continue making videos, I really enjoy learning about sheep & goats. I never thought about it until I stumbled on this channel.
Looks like alotta fun !
I’m in Kentucky. About 1 mile from the WV line. Make more videos!
Hi, I would like to know how easy to weigh more goats/sheep. ( more than 100 ) Please post a video on this.
I hope you're ok. Haven't seen any videos in about six months.
Thank you. Making videos adds a lot of time to my day and I've just been too lazy to do it. I'm going to try to do better.
@@rollingofarm Glad to hear you're ok. Your videos are excellent, but your farm operation is more important than making videos, for sure. Good luck!

I'm sorry, I don't have any experience with castrating rams.
I look one Maremano Abruzes ;-)
