It is so evident that you really love your animals. They way you talk to and care for the kids. The way you comfort and care for the laboring moms. I just adore watching these videos and getting to know your family (the two legged and four).

@vermontmom4232 4 года назад

Who the heck gave this a thumbs down? You may want to watch again and pay attention this time. Because there is absolutely no reason to give a thumbs down. Just jealousy. Sad... Love you Crystal, family and goats.

Hi again Crystal. Could just sit and watch you and babies play together ALL day long! Seeing them crawl all over you, totally secure, and DEFINITELY with no sense of boundaries, happy, bouncy and content in the incredibly fun environment u have provided them. It just makes for one continuous smile. And your complete joy in their antics......never ceases to warm my heart. I hit ‘replay’ and ‘like” over and over, totally mesmerized with their babyhood, their goofy sense of play and that look of total contentment on your face and in your voice. What a way to start a Saturday!

Your channel rocks. Even though I grew up on a farm, goats were new to me. I got 3 last spring, bred 2, sold the buck in Nov, back down to 2, gained 2 more, now have 2 babies! Now I have a heard of 6! I've learned a lot from you channel like giving shots, milking tips, electric fencing for goats, ect. You've really given me some confidence. I do have 2 videos up about our new babies if you want to see them!

@richmiller9180 4 года назад

I actually liked to disbud. I did feel somewhat sorry for the babies, but I got really good at it and enjoyed seeing that perfect ring. I did not always get it right and the bucks were especially difficult. We had a lot of scuts on our bucks, which was a sorry sight to me.

@oranjmusemeyer968 4 года назад

We had a farm hand that lost an ear from a horned buck- complete accident- but they can hurt people and each other with those horns. Disbudding is the safest way to go!

@MBear3 4 года назад

My friend had a horned nanny goat. It's horns laid flat against its head and pointed backward. So it learnt to go past you and quickly reverse to try and stab you.

I love jumpstart! But i will say, those tubes of gel are dangerous for newborns! (you did good Chrystal, they are older, and can handle more solid food:) ) My friend gave one of her kids some sel/vit.E gel to a newborn from the tube, and she breathed it in, and died a slow, painful death. She simply didnt know. ALWAYS give a pea sized amount on finger swiped on roof of mouth to newborns! just a quick little tip ;)

So, how does it feel to be smothered by all those adorable kids?! I’m so envious. Thanks for making my day!

@lizouellette3072 4 года назад

That is the best way to start the day - being "mauled" by baby goats wanting attention and milk. I agree. Disbudding is the worst but we feel it is necessary. Everyone has their own opinion on this touchy subject, but goats can get them stuck in some very bad situations without horns. Our vet charges $65 to disbudded & tattoo plus do a vet check. It may seem expensive to some, but hubby won't do it and my hands won't let me due to RA. You have such beautiful baby goats! Thank you for sharing!!!

@sandrathomas2145 4 года назад

Oh Crystal I would be so in Heaven with all of those babies. I so want a farm and have some of your babies because I know they are well taken care of but not seeing that in my near future. It makes my day to watch the babies and the adult goats. Thank you for the education and sharing them with us.

Thank you for explaining the reasons to disbud. Just remembered to ask; At what age do you disbud? Do you give Jump Start to 2 day old kids to colonize their gut?

Do you ever do disbudding for other people? And I just love this channel Crystal. You had replied to one of my comments that I did not know of apparently and I just found out yesterday strolling through my g-mail and i thought that was the coolest thing ever. You really do read your comments and you answer them by writing them back! Wow!!! Love you girl!!! You are a beautiful woman! With an amazing family ❤️ and I am in love with watching you guys and all them goats! I'd love to see you all do a video on the baby goats getting to be able to jump around on a couple stumps spread out over there play area and maybe build some kind of thing to hang a swing from. Wouldn't that be awesome. Anyway,Love your family hope you guys stay safe and be Blessed!

@Tinyoak2 Год назад

I grew up with goats, but only on the milking and feeding side of the fence so to speak. Fast forward and my husband and I bought acreage and he wanted goats milk (I remembered all the work it is, i.e. it isn't low maintenance like chickens), so now we have two to start off with and I am now on the side of the fence my parents were on. Holy cow, I never realized how small MY chore was. We have fixed the stalls since, but yes as you said, I came in one morning and the one area we thought was secure had a goat stuck in it via their horn and we have no idea how long she was like that. I know some might cry out that it is cruel and she was fine, but what if it had been worse? definitely something to consider with any future goats

@MsJazzyRay 4 года назад

@heatherj3385 4 года назад

Good luck with the disbudding! It's got to be done. I'm in a unique situation where my vet is so inexpensive. She only vets goats because of her passion for goats and only charges $5 a kid to disbud! I'm impressed with people that do it themselves, you are amazing.

@dianejohanson98 4 года назад

People down the road from us have a herd of larger goats and they all have horns. We were coming back from town one day and one of their goats was stick under the fence, his horns caught, and it couldn’t get out. So we stopped and helped it get free. We never see any people among the goats there, so we were worried they wouldn’t notice for a long time it was stuck in the fence. Most of their goats are white with brown heads. Don’t know what breed they are. We are in the Texas Hill Country so most of the goats around here are this breed. This happened another time, same goat too. We know because it was the only solid brown goat in the herd. We freed it again. Then awhile later we noticed the goat was not with the herd anymore. I don’t know if they got rid of it or it died. Horns can be really bad.

@claireochsner6270 4 года назад

Diane Johanson sound like boer goats. They are meat goats and are often left with horns intact

Informative with how old you disbud, what tools you use, any thing that could go wrong and all that! I love how informative your videos are in general. I've had goats for about 4 years now, but I've still learned a bunch from you guys!

@SundazeFarm 4 года назад

Thanks, Crystal! Looking forward to the detailed video. I've helped with disbudding before (held the goat while someone else used the iron) but this will be our first year doing it all on our own and I'm NOT looking forward to it! I got the iron and a disbudding box (because my husband doesn't want to help lol), but I'm certainly not looking forward to it! Mercifully, our first round of babies of the year were polled so I got a break till our next kidding in a week or so!

California makes NOTHING easy. In healthcare, they feel they are "too good" for nurses to come work there. Its ok :) I love your channel, love how educational and caring you are. I have many degrees and worked hard to get where I am, but my end goal with life is nothing towards my education lol. We sold a house we owned, no payments, nothing, to buy a farm so we can have better land and bigger buildings. We are starting our goat raising experience soon, so watching your channel has been really nice for me. So far we have chickens (all breeds including rare ones, just love them all), Flemish rabbits, cats, dogs, and exotic birds/parrots which we rescue. We have a 5000 sq ft building we turned into an aviary, and will be building an outdoor aviary for them during the warmer weather. Soon we will be getting Scottish Highlanders (after we get the fence completed). But first we will start with the goats :) we like the nigeran dwarf goats, but not sure which will be best for us. just trying to educate myself with behaviors, temper, size, and such.

Hi love your videos there so informative. Would u recommend having a couple polled does or one polled breeding buck for better luck in having more polled kids? Just wondering if u have insight or experience.

@claireochsner6270 4 года назад

ThisMomsTale Being pooled is a dominant gene. If you have a goat that is Pp for being polled and is bred to a horned-pp goat than 50% of offspring will be polled. This is the same regardless of whether the polled goat is the buck or the doe. If you have a goat that is homozygous for being polled- PP, their offspring will be 100% polled and have the genes for horns, which will mean their offspring will possibly have horns. Homozygous polled goats are thought to have fertility issues due to heavy inbreeding to create a 100% polled line
