Goat Farmer, Mom, and College Instructor I use the channel to document our adventures; mostly goats, but some family vacations and other fun things that happen. I like having an archive of my own material for my college courses.
No te preocupes :) ellos tienen un mamá 😃 pero cuando ella esta comiendo en el pastor, ella los deja en un lugar. Los niños normalmente duermen cuando la mama los deja.
멋있는 곳이군요. 와이오밍주에 당신의 목장이 있나 보네요. 당신의 아들도 귀엽습니다. 나는 염소나 소를 좋아합니다. 어릴 적 아버지가 집에서 기르던 소를 팔았습니다. 나는 소를 팔지말라고 떼를 쓰고 울다가 아버지에게 매를 맞았던 기억이 있습니다. 여기는 한국입니다. 한국에 놀러 오시면 목장에서 일어나는 일들을 듣고 싶습니다. 물론 맛있는 음식을 드실 수있게 초대하겠습니다. 자연과 하는 삶이 그 모든 것이 낭만적이고 목가적이지 않지만 미국인의 강인한 개척정신과 도전을 사랑합니다.
I don’t remember the size we bought! Newborns would be too small unless you’re treating a mini. My guess is around size 3 but we did cloth diapers so I’m honestly terrible at knowing sizes! Just grab one from a friend and try it on I guess :)
Cow leg hoof upper place small holes 🕳️ for pus and bloody water is leakage Which is the best way to clear to the abscess It's very emergency plz tell me sir😢
Hey this was definitely an emergency for this young goat. It’s a huge abscess right below her ear. I have another recent video of another lancing of an abscess that explains a little more.
Hey sorry I missed this comment. I just called the town office and asked if they were interested in goats to help with landscape management. And they said they had just been talking about goats so it was perfect timing!
We try to wean earlier than six months. 3 months would be good but depending on timing and grazing projects we wean when it works. It not 100% for sure but I’m happy if I can decrease stress on a good percentage of them. What a Good percentage is, is up to you to decide.
Useless. Mine figured out how to nurse around them in about two minutes. I'm guessing that calves (and maybe lambs) aren't as smart but they're pointless on goats. I've taken to taping teats as a low-stress weaning method. It's a bit more hassle because some of the determined ones will find ways to get it off (I've resorted to superglue a couple times) and sometimes I have to take it off and replace it in order to relieve pressure from a full udder, but the ones who've been taped off for at least two weeks are much less upset when I separate them.
Hey yes we definitely had quite a few that flipped them up to suckle. Overall our weaning stress was definitely reduced so I would say they definitely had a positive effect. That's a interesting idea about taping them too.
@@marisaschuebel9189 it didn't work on a single one of mine. They nursed around or pulled them out and kept on nursing so it had no effect. That was years ago; I've been trying to come up with a better option ever since and only came up with taping last year. I had a doe with mastitis that I needed to treat and bottle her kids but I wanted to leave them with her so I had to do that to keep them from nursing with the meds in and it worked well enough that I tried it for weaning the rest too.
This is to reduce stress during weaning. This way the kids can’t suck on the mom’s but they still have their mother while they are transitioning off the milk. Later we are able to separate them from their mothers and there is much less stress (we see less vocalization at weaning). The kids are old enough to not have milk and leaving them on too long can be hard of the does udders as well as their body condition. I hope that helps to understand.
