It only causes discomfort for about 6 seconds then the nerves die. Any incision will cause about 14 hours of pain after any numbing agent or sedative wears off.
_Milo Actually they have to have it one for one to two weeks, but when your cutting them off you could actually num then so that they could feel nothing.
its videos like this that make me pray aliens never invade earth and see us as nothing more than bugs and decide to attach rubberbands to us male humans to control our population lol.
You 2 r idiots!!!!!no 1 is going to castrate you!!!!!btw you are only a bug!your problebly "like easy for you to say your female!" I don't care!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#losersss!!!!!!😎😆😅😎 And yes!I do use a android!!!!!!and I'm proud!!!!!!#androiduser!!!!!!!
Marion Scaggs dude people think the maturity let in 14 year olds is the maturity in 7 year olds and find every excuse to say of your probably 7 saying this don't even try man just dont
That's great the family decided to take both baby goats. Does the family have other goats or was this their first experience? WTG to your DD on saving $5! tfs
I have been looking into goats for a looong time (hopefully to get some soon!). I saw where some people use a burdizzo for castration. Do you have any experience/opinion with this in relation to the banding? Thanks for the vids!
my 8 month old goat was being castrated this past Friday.. he had to be done with a surgical procedure though.. after the surgery he was fine and still groggy.. i went up to check on him before i went to bed and then the next day i went to check on him and i found out he unexpectedly passed away.. we called the vet and they came out to see what happened to him because they were shocked on what happened.. they believe that he suffered from a blood clot but they can’t be 100% certain unless they took him and perform an autopsy.. 😔😕
At least you didnt tie a rubber band around the poor things testicles. Your goat didnt suffer like this one did. Sorry Weed em and Reap, I love your videos but this was just cruel. I was shocked to see you do this because you genuinely seem to care about your animals. I hope you guys dont continue this practice in the future for the sake of your animals. If you arent willing to do it to your own child, dont force it on an animal. Thats my personal rule.
Altering too young (at weeks old) increases the risk of suffering from extremely painful and, if not caught in the first couple of days, deadly kidney stones. Banding is very painful for the approximately 3 weeks it takes the testicles to die, rotting away from lack of blood. In many instances infection sets in during the process. Cutting is a less painful, quicker healing and more human method of castration. The cuts are not deep and very small. Intact bucks becoming mean is a stereotype. Bucks use urination on themselves as a 'cologne' for his Doe when she is in estrus. Occasional bathes is a good hygiene and maintenance practice. In a previous video you stated goats do not like their heads touched is incorrect. They enjoy a good nose to tail, ears and belly hand scratching and rubbing just like you would give a dog. Goats are very intelligent, learn and train very quickly and have exceptional memory. In all my years of having and helping others with goats, it was the goats that suffered a head trauma, such as dehorning, that did not want their head touched; they remembered the pain. Bet you did not know a new born kid can be litter box trained within 24-48 hours.
Jamie Hartley . Obviously my near 20 years experience of raising my own +/-30 goats at a time and working with goats on 3 other ranches and the 2 experienced Vets we rely upon can not compete with your vast knowledge and experience with goats. You evidently think you know best, even by carrying a goat/kid on its back-bad move. You really should consult with a goat Savvy Vet. about some of the ways treat your goats. They are the ones who are suffering whether you see and feel it or not.
I have just heard of this and I have a few questions that may seem stupid, but id really like to know! Why do you do this as opposed to neutering like on cats and dogs? And why is it that this is only done on goats and not other animals, like cats and dogs? Thanks!
Maybe best to cute them but gg next time this is the painful way ...I mean really both are painful but you can just cut it off Must suck being a animal sometimes 😔
Weed'em & Reap, my Nigerian Pygmy is 9 mo and I can't find anyone to castrate him. I am going to have to band him myself, so thank you for the video. My question that I have though, is he too old to do this type of castrating? Thank you!
Thank you for this video! I’m getting NDGs soon and we will be breeding them for kids and milk. I have a question: how old are they and do you give them any extra shots or meds when you do this?

Thank you CJ. De Rosa! I appreciate any information. Currently a month into researching. I still have awhile to go before I am fully equipped and ready to own goats. :) I agree, I wouldn't be able to eat anything that I've raised. I get attached. :)
Good video. I’ll be having to band some after kidding season this year. Also, I have a Hugulkuktur video if your interested. Start to finish... Thanks for the great content!
poor little dude. lol i hate sucker branches, my meyer lemon tree gets wicked thorns! the worst for sucker growth in my yard is the crepe myrtle and oleander tree.
Actually i saw a doctor using this method on a neck skin tag/ growth once you tight a string around no more blood flow it will fall off no scar no pain just a stings feeling on the skin.
if it is wasps get a brown paper bag and stuff it with plastic bags to keep it puffed out. the wasps think its a hornets nest and they are afraid of hornets and will stay away.
I love your videos they are the best and I love that your home is nature friendly. I am a really big fan and I love your pond and I think your baby goats are really cute I like willow the best
Castrating. She's castrating the boys by removing their testicles, balls. It's so they stay nice & won't become aggressive. Or start stinking like a buck normally does. It's the same as getting a cat or dog neutered. Except the process is far simpler. I don't think this would would on a dog much less a cat.
Lol my little cousin (8) got a sheep (who sadly later died of unrelated causes) and when they did this and they fell off (as with the tail) SHE KEPT BOTH AS A ... wait for it... NECKLACE.... wtf little cousin?
You can hire a professional beekeeper to relocate them. That is what I do for a living. There are many companies like mine that offer this valuable needed service! Save the Bees!!!
Alison Dalton livestock have a higher risk of infection with neutering surgically and can be very dangerous since they're outside animals who would get the wound dirty and infected, doing the rubber band method doesn't hurt them at all and its a lot cheaper
No it’s the best way if you cut it right open it will bleed and the goat will scream so you wouldn’t like it if it happened to you. You will scream so if it just falls of its easier than putting the goat in pain
Thank you so much for this awsome video, we were having a little trouble with one of ours (its been awhile) and your refresher helped immensely! Really appriciate it.
Mostly so they're not aggressive and hurt the other goats. On our website we show a few other things that come up in our adventures here: www.weedemandreap.com/category/animals/goats/
What a horrible way to castrate an animal. Hurts for a long time.. why not simply let a vet do the castration quickly with a little incision ? it would only take 5 minutes, minor or no pain for the animal ... Have to admit that I'm disgusted
I was searching for Goat Castration for Vet school on Google and saw this video the farm looks so different back then. This was very informative.
its actually better to cut them out as putting rubber bands on them is painful and last awhile.
Well you can do it with your goats, how about that?
Not scissors.
Slice the balls down the center, remove the testis by hand.
Singulargravy9 it is better to rubber band them because they just fall off
It only causes discomfort for about 6 seconds then the nerves die. Any incision will cause about 14 hours of pain after any numbing agent or sedative wears off.

Uuuugggghhhh I wanna live on a farm sooooooo bad 😥😥😥😥😥💔💔😂
Morgan’s World you sadistic monster 🤭🤭
Saame
It's harder than you think
I live on a farm with 14 miniature goats
You can
I have been looking into goats for a looong time (hopefully to get some soon!). I saw where some people use a burdizzo for castration. Do you have any experience/opinion with this in relation to the banding? Thanks for the vids!
That is considered the best, most humane method. We will be using Burdizzo for any bucklings on our farm.
Cutting them *SHIVERS* I could never deal with that ever again..I took a one year old buck in to my vet and I had to hold him.Too yucky for this girl!
Delkolovr2 burdizzo doesn't cut them
I know,I was just saying that I would band them as kids :) Vet felt it was better with his age and size.
Wholesome Roots are you sure you have a got yet
We hate doing this to our baby boys it’s sad but they get used to it we have our fellow goat farming friend do it for us

I. LOVED Liddy telling her story!! 😍

This is done on animals where it hangs down. Some animals it doesn't.
Maybe best to cute them but gg next time this is the painful way ...I mean really both are painful but you can just cut it off
Must suck being a animal sometimes 😔

Do you give any type of shots to your baby goats before dehorning or castration, like CD&T or Tetanus?
May Ann dehorning is inhumane. Disbudding before 2 weeks of age is safer and no blood.
Regina Carmen Banda That's clearly what she meant. We've never seen them dehorn any goat.
Good video. I’ll be having to band some after kidding season this year. Also, I have a Hugulkuktur video if your interested. Start to finish...
Thanks for the great content!
Can you show us how to neuter a goat at home
using a rubber band is inhumane it cause so much pain for the goat
Jayden Craddock stop watching these videos if you are gonna comment on every one about how they are being inhumane lol
And it will be even more painful if you cut it because they don’t numb it and it’s cheaper than paying a vet to come
You don’t know that unless your a goat so stop watching these vids goat go back to eating your hay 😂
Jayden Craddock no it doesnt its the most nonpainful cut
Jayden Craddock so is cutting it open!
poor little dude. lol i hate sucker branches, my meyer lemon tree gets wicked thorns! the worst for sucker growth in my yard is the crepe myrtle and oleander tree.
She’s (Lydia) is so awesome

Does this work on sheep? Work on older sheep? At what age it won’t work or does it work at all ages plzzzzz reply
This was filmed on my 12th birthday
that was filmed on my 9th b day
Iv heard that cutting the branches on a angle will help growth to
I love your videos they are the best and I love that your home is nature friendly. I am a really big fan and I love your pond and I think your baby goats are really cute I like willow the best
Banding a goat looks do much easier than banding a.calf.
I always wonder what edited comments looked like before they were edited!
Why is it necessary to do this? I'm not trying to be rude or anything, I kinda just don't understand why u need to remove it?
At what age should the kids be to be banded?
Can you upload a goat milk soap or chevre making video?
can i ask you, how much they were sold for? also, where are you located?
Banding is cruel and illegal in many countries.
how long does it need to tied? life long or limited periods? pliz
My bike did the same thing after it was in the snow in 2017
Those are not pruners dear...
Those are nippers for snipping wire.

is it not better to castrate them when they are younger? or let them stay somewhere familiar while they recover?
How often do you plant carrots for succession?

I keep seeing ads in Craigslist free section for free bee removal by bee keepers. It's not all the there all the time though.
You have an Aravaipa?? I'm Jealous!! Did you get it from Shamus?
I did!
Why r they castrating?
I hope in later videos you learned that cutting was more humane than rubber bands.
I feel so bad
When she clipped it I didn't feel nice for me
This is horrible. How would you like it if someone did that to you. Have the goat get surgery. This is so wrong and painful for the poor goat
Alison Dalton livestock have a higher risk of infection with neutering surgically and can be very dangerous since they're outside animals who would get the wound dirty and infected, doing the rubber band method doesn't hurt them at all and its a lot cheaper
I tkink she means "Hügelkultur"
For cows is is better to cut them off so they don’t get irritated it’s doesn’t really hurt them
Also what kind of goats are those
Nigerians
I love goats
can u raise a video on emu
How much do you sell your goats for?
It's a pretty wide range depending on the breed, age, registration......100 up to 450
Stop laughing at him!!!!
Guys don't squeeze it balls ever...
That s terrible,why do that to 5he goats,.if u feel line u have to do that u don't need them .
I had goosebumps...
I love your videos, great quality, informational, intertaining. You and your family are so sweet and talented.
yes banding them is a whole lot better for the animal. Thank you for sharing
Carson Liebenow bitch no it’s not it hurts them
don't joke about this kind of crap
Buying some goats to eat and with no balls, clean goat.
This is torture, please look up another way :(
The duck is a goat
Why did you cut off their horns?
safety for the goats
Wow PETA is going to be pissed.
That is not the right way
Everything Nicole i think they know better than you do
Actually thats the best way ro do that its alot easier and well it will hurt but i hurts worse to cut it open and do it that way
No it’s the best way if you cut it right open it will bleed and the goat will scream so you wouldn’t like it if it happened to you. You will scream so if it just falls of its easier than putting the goat in pain
Hi Leave me alone. How do you know? Do you have goats? 🙄
That is not good for the goat FYI
Maybe just a typing mistake
Thank you so much for this awsome video, we were having a little trouble with one of ours (its been awhile) and your refresher helped immensely! Really appriciate it.
