Very good information on raising goats. Prayers for you and your family. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.
Thank you
Glad to see you out Josh! This was an excellent video on raising goats. People need this before they jump into getting goats. It is work to have a good herd. Your herd is what we all strive for healthy beautiful and good moms! Thanks again Josh don`t wait so long before the next video I was worried about your health!
Your goats look really healthy. You look really good Josh take care, stay positive always❤️🙏❤️
Thank you
This is a great video for those who are going to raise goats. Great job, Josh!👍 I've been keeping you in my prayers. You're lookin great! The kids are lookin so good! God bless. 😊❤️
Good looking kids and your pup is coming right along!
💜🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you
Great video Josh. God Bless 💕💕💕
Josh, great informational video. Perfect timing because my interest lately is possibly getting into goats. Not immediate future but hopefully within a couple of years. We have a few things that need to happen before we can, but researching now is part of us finding the right property. Hubby is all about the return on investment!! 🤣 So having a timeline and my list of needs/potential costs, I absolutely need to do my homework.
The nice weather has made you "glow" and seem more mobile. I continue to pray for you and your wife through this journey. Thank you for being an inspiration of hope, and educational to promote healthy, strong herds for any of us getting the itch for herds. Much love from Iowa ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you we appreciate your prayers.
Thanks for watching and I’m glad it helped!!
Excellent video. Thank you. Still praying for you and your family. Your looking good.
Oh no, I never got a notification for this video, Josh but glad I checked again cuz it had been a while. What a great informative video, Josh!! And wow, you have a lot of kids on the ground and they are so darn cute!!
Also, so good to see you doing well!! You are still in my prayers for a full recovery! God bless you and Audra and the boys 💜❤💜❤💜
Thank you we appreciate your prayers.
I raise French and American Alpines. I got into goats for the Agriculture exemption and my brother-in-law found a lady getting out of goats because she was moving to the city.
I went through field fence, welded wire and then found no climb horse fence and the goats can't break it. I have to go 5 feet high because my goats can jump. I do have to disbud them because they are registered dairy goats and the ADGA requires them not to have horns. Some of my goats are polled.
I like the Alpines because they are fairly easy to handle and they are quiet.
When I got into goats I had a lot of friends that told me that goats were easy to care for. I found out that if there is a way to cause trouble, they will. They do keep life interesting. I love watching the kids play and how the goats interact with each other.
They are entertaining. It's amazing how agile they are.
Thank you I really appreciated the information Continued prayers 🙏
Your welcome
Good information. Thank you. Also, continued prayers for your complete healing. May God Bless.
Considering adding goats to my small acreage for weed maintenance. Appreciate coming across this.
Thanks for watching
Man I’m glad I found your channel! I’m over in Paris and I’ve been thinking about getting a couple goats to clean up our ranch headquarters, possible milk or meat, and for my daughter to learn to raise animals. I’m doing my research and I appreciate your information. I’ll be in contact once we make up our minds on the type! Thank you sir
We are happy to have you. We should have some kids available soon.
Thanks for watching
@@BoisDArcKikos awesome I appreciate it
Molly is growing. Thanks for the information. How are your treatments going. You should be about done. I am praying for you. Your kids are looking good.
Awesome video Josh
Thank you
Just my opinion we are fostering some goats for some friends. They got a problem with their property and I wanted to be the best caregiver. I can thank you very much for all the information and put it together well-informed video now we can be the best aunt uncle to a bunch of kids thanks.
Joe & Christina
Thank you I appreciate you guys watching & good luck with them!
This was so informative Josh. Would love to see more like this.
Josh you look good, glad to see you up making awesome videos!!!! You and Uncle Joe have the second best goat farm( second to only that “bbkernsalln”). Tell Joe hello .
Good video Josh ! I was wondering when you would be putting your next one out today and there it was a few hours later. You remain in my prayers 🙏 cancer free in '23
Thanks for the video. I appreciate you that you actually showed what you were talking about instead of just talking to the camera.
I like the idea of your med bucket. Beginner livestock first aid would be a good for it’s own video.
WOW !! GREAT VIDEO! VERY informative. So good to see you active. HOPE ALL IS WELL. GOD BLESS.
Thank you
Appreciate you watching
Great video Josh. Good to see you looking good. Prayers.
Good tips for anyone wanting to get into goats. The one thing that has kept me from getting goats is the lack of good fencing. Fencing is expensive and what I have won't hold water let alone a goat! So that is one thing I would have to address. 🤔💖😉
I am happy to see you looking well. My prayers go with you always. 💖🙏💖
Such good idea on the fencing. Thanks for your knowledge. Prayers sent your way for whole family.
Thank you
Appreciate you watching
Praying for you Josh
Thank you
I really enjoyed this educational side of goat care. Even though I'll never have goats 🐐 myself, I find them to be very charming animals. So many of the TH-cam Creator's I follow have goats and through them I've come to really like 👍these characters. I think I would have enjoyed having some pigme goats as pets. I see you didn't recommend feeding any grain, and I've recently learned it is really not good for them yet many goat keepers do feed grain. Any comment on that? Your kids have sure grown since the last video 😊 and look like they are thriving. So good to see you up and looking as good as can be expected. You are just the most pleasant person and I admire your faith.
We do creep feed the kids and feed some grain.
Thanks for watching
Hey there Josh, I hope you’re feeling better and enjoying being able to enjoy the farm and your animals again. I’m recovering myself, my husband got sick with the sinuses and Covid, that a couple of his workers had gotten but he was able to rid himself of Covid due to his shots and catching it early but amazingly he became sick with his ears and a low grade fever and the doctor had to treat him for sinusitis with antibiotics but he’s a fighter when he gets sick and he got well right away. The weather has been so strange lately and some days are like spring and then the true weather came in and it got so cold and now snowy and everyone is getting sick. I recovering from a severe sinus infection with fever and headaches, so now I stay away from crowds and wear mask outside. How is your family? I hope everyone’s well. Take care of yourself and listen to the doctor. God bless you and your family. I love your cute Kiko babies.❤
Prayers for health and safety!🙏❤🙏
Great video. Thanks!
Thank You
Appreciate you watching
Looking stronger Josh! I love the baby goats. They're so comical! When I finally get my property ready to move to, I'm interested in a couple milk goats that can also browse down different areas of the land away from the house. I was thinking about the full electric fencing that I could move around the land. Do you think that would hold Nigerian Dwarfs in?? The ground in my mountain is super rocky so not sure a ton of traditional fencing would work for me. I'm mostly into having chickens, rabbits maybe the occasional steer or hog and many gardens! I would love your perspective. Thanks, Texas Deb ❤️
Enjoyed the video i watch your videos several times when do you usually put your bucks with your nannies
Thank you. We put them in with the does in August.
Thanks for watching
Boy you ain't lying, I learned the hard way too. After eight years in raising goats a good fence is absolutely important. I raise dairy goats for the milk (we love it) which I make cheese and soap from. Now my goats are not purebred, but mostly Nubian with some Alpine and LaMancha mixed in, but all dairy breeds. I have considered keeping some of bucklings for meat but haven't as of yet.
Goat meat is pretty good and lean.
I just want a pet goat.
Looking great! Good tips!
Great video! Thank you
Thanks for watching
Very informative video.
Did you know you could be Woody Harrelson's stunt double?
Thank you we appreciate you watching. I haven’t been told that before. I have been called Jason whitten twin
Great video! I just love the Akbash-Anatolian mix Lgds. We have a female, your pup looks just like ours when she was a pup. Very smart dogs.
Thank you. We appreciate you watching. That is a great cross!
Great video Josh. You are looking great. Take care ❤
Thank you
****🌺 Boy was I surprised! So glad to see you back on & looking so healthy! I was just praying for you 2 days ago and wondering how things were going? Glad your back. Looking forward to more videos. Love 💞 & Aloha🦋 from Yvonne 🌺🦋 & Hoku 🐕🐾 in San Diego 🌺🦋🌈🌊***
Prayers on your continued recovery. Glad to see you out and about. Thanks for the lessons. Blessings 🙏
Thank you
Good to see you out and about! Since kiko's originally had dairy goat bred onto them, would they make a dual-purpose goat for a homestead? Or perhaps bred back to a dairy buck for future dual purposes?
For sure they could be a dual purpose goat. Some of our have very large bags & great milkers
Really enjoyed this video. Very informative and interesting. Thank you 😊. 🙏🙏
Thanks for watching

Can I fence goats with 15.5 gauge barbed wire
It would take several strands but I know of ppl that have done it that way.
Great to see you Josh. Awesome video with a whole bunch of information. Your farm is so pretty, grass is coming back, ponds are full, & a crazy amount of little kids running around😊 Hope your treatment is going ok & hi to Audra. Love prayers & support from Australia🙏🏼🥰
Thank you we appreciate your prayers & supporting us.
Great video Woody Harrelson 👍
Great information content.
Appreciate you watching
Since your goats are registered are they primarily used and sold as breeding goats?
Nice information sir... New Subscriber. Thankyou and Godbless 🙏
Thank you
Appreciate you subscribing
Would you mind if I visited to before I buy? What’s the best time of the year for you guys but remember these temperatures are killing ya on travel
A farm visit is good. You can see how we raise our goats.
Great I will give you plenty of notice asking on dates later
Where you guys located? Can I visit your farm?
We are in NE Texas Bonham Tx. Yes
@@BoisDArcKikos 👍
I bought three Kiko Nannies to try have them running with my savanna billy
Josh I am enjoying your videos. Question you are 20 hours away I believe and I live in North East Tennessee. Now I really do like your buck Mega Watt could you pick me out one or two young bucks off him to buy for my herd? Or sale me some young nannies that I can raise. I would like to start with commercial nannies but a good looking colored up full blooded Billy
Thanks we appreciate you watching
So I guess you want be interested in selling any commercial young Nannie’s any time soon
@@edwinmoore4560 I don’t have any. I sold out from this year. I will have some next year.
Thank you. I'm thinking on getting a couple Nigerian Dwarf goats for pets mostly. From there I'm not sure. Couple females is my thinking right now. You had lots of great tips in this video. I'm in central Iowa. We do get cold up here.
Appreciate you watching
Josh what do you think about rotating grazing our grass grows year round here in Tennessee? Except when snow is here
Rotational grazing is best for your grass & parasites.
Thanks that was what I needed to know
Where are you located looking to start a flock
Bonham Tx
"Kiko" I learned something today, pet Goat. Meat Goat. This was good thanks! But what does it mean when you say "work our Goats" what's that pen for? That very last instruction you gave on the iron pen. Thanks again. I like the bucket piece also, prepared!
It is a pen we use for handling our goats. If we separate and sell or have to work them. Look them over or to doctor them in.
Thanks for watching
I want to grow meat goats when im older but cant decide on boer goats or kiko goats
👍🐐👍🐐👍
I've been raising goats for 17 years and this video was spot on! I raise registered Myotonics but love watching your Kiko herd. Beautiful goats!
Thank you
Your goats are amazing and vital. You do an excellent job of raising them. I, however, could not look in their precious little faces, knowing they’re going to slaughter. I’m an animal lover and yes, I understand the cycle of life……but, no, they’d all be pets. ❤️🐐
Thank you I appreciate your honesty and being nice about it. We love to raise goats and try to give them the best.
Thanks for watching
How much property do you run your goats on?
We have 75 acres total we use for our goats.
We may have covered this before. How many acres you run? 80 Nannie’s is solid herd.
We have 75 total acres but use rotational grazing.
@@BoisDArcKikos for rage growth is different down there compared to up here, but even at 1 goat/acre still in plenty sustainable numbers! Looks like it was a good week to have 40-50lb kids ready based on what I seen market reports this week. 1st selection 43# kids going for +$400. Hope you’re having a good kidding season! Look forward to the videos to come!
I'm glad your health is improving and God bless you and your family love your videos. Can you explain the feed program that you have your goats on? Thank you from an old retired army vet Dale Nedrow
Thank you
We graze when grass is available and in the winter we supplement good quality hay and feed about a pound a day to does when they are about to breed and kid out.
TFS! Blessings to you! ✝🕊🙏🏼💖

I have trifoliate oranges on my land. They have 3” thorns and are very thick. Would goats be able to clear them?
We have locust trees here that have thorns and the goats eat them.
