This was VERY well done!! Thank you so much! We had to give selenium to kids this morning even though mom had a dose in August and we have a selenium block out!!

Watched all your videos, thank you for your time and easy to follow directions. I will watch again before I make my mind up to raise meat birds. God bless and good luck with your future endeavors. I will not do my own butchering, that's why I have amish farms about 10 miles away.

What herbicide to use

Will it eventually cause the tree to fall down ?

Where do you find it

Best wishes that she continues to improve! She's a beauty!! Thanks for sharing! 🙏❤🇺🇸

Gate looks great, Megan and Ragon! Prayes that Laramie continues to improve and gets healthy quick. She has the sweetest expression, definitely was soul staring back at the vet. Can't wait for baby goats! 💚💚

You really weren't kidding when you said they try and un-alive themselves constantly lol I am glad she is feeling better. Hopefully less stressful for you now.

Why don’t you have a Jersey cow yet? I thought I would start with dairy goats because they’re smaller for some reason I assumed they would be easier. Ended up getting a Jersey instead because fences on our property are poor and my cow stays in a single hot strand. They’re So hardy too. I don’t have to worry about worms, predators or calving complications so far. Had her for two years. We might be moving for my husbands job end of this year, and I might have to sell her. I’m already heartbroken.

It ain’t glamorous. My goat knows what the leather seats in my Mercedes feel like (the old one I use for a ranch truck). The things that go on homesteading still make me chuckle.

Hugs! New stall looks great! Continue healing Laramie!

Wide Load for sure. LOL

Gorgeous children ❤❤❤

So glad Laramie is getting better. 🩵

Listeria grows where oxygen isn't. Think baled hay or silage like chaffehay or alfahay, not fallen hay by the feeder. Symptoms start 7-10 days after exposure. Hopefully it's just goat polio and the thiamine your vet is having you give covers it. For more parasite resistance up the protein in the diet (not just adding grain, but the whole diet) and keep the water and food clear of pellets. Good luck.

I lost 2 goats to Listeria last year. They were in much worse condition than your girl. They passed on the third day. I don't know where they got it from because they were in different pens, fed differently (1 was my buck, the other was a bred doe). After I lost them I totally stripped down the goat barn and sanitized it. This time of year is when you are prone to see it. I am hoping I don't see it this year. They can get it just about any where from what the vet told me.

Miss Laramie is lucky to have such a good person to take care of her. She looks happy. I hope she continues to improve and get stronger.

The fact that she can stay up once you've helped her stand is a definite sign of improvement. For a goat to continue eating & drinking so well once they're down, is somewhat unusual. But that is an indication of a much better outcome! I'll be saying some prayers for her!! God bless!

Hope she continues to improve ❤❤

I love channels like yours. I wasn’t raised around animals and we plan on getting goats. You give a good amount of information in your videos. Thank you 💜🌸

That locust tree will make you some good posts.

Fun and interesting video!

I adore the synergy y'all show (reminds me of Tater & me, honestly). I also love my spreadsheets because I can create some kind of organization out of seeming chaos. The new kidding areas look awesome!

The new kidding stall looks wonderful! I love the half cattle panel half OSB so you can still see some inside but it also has nice wind break fully too. Those fasteners are cool looking, will keep them in mind for sure. Yes, gravity always lets you down. Hahaha. Super excited for the kiddings! 💚

Rosemary and Bell are due on the same day? I thought Nigerian Dwarf goats only took 145 days and standard goats are 150-155? Do I have my numbers wrong?

You are very lucky to have cats claws give you these fasteners, because several months ago maybe a year ago I wanted to get some of these fasteners and wholly cow are they EXPENSIVE. I was unable to afford them.

Gates are the bane of my existence. Where did you find that gate?

Your adorable 2lb Nigerians are going to leak out of that cattle panel LOL!

Why did mr Editor take out the part where the wall came off the truck?! LOL

I've never seen the 'Cat Claw Fasteners" before. They look amazing! Several years ago my grandson & a friend's son helped me build a new goat fence with 7 1/2' wood posts set in cement & alternated with 7' T-posts. Then cattle panels. It's been great but the steeples are beginning to work out from the wooden posts. Those fasteners would be an awesome fix!!! Thank you! Praying for your kidding season! Mine startes in a couple months to miss the cold. God bless!

You two are such an amazing couple!! Your love, respect & joy shine through!! 😊

I don't have a kidding stall. My goats just kid in the pasture. It's a smaller, fenced in pasture (I free range my goats), but they have always done well, except for the one I didn't get penned up and she decided to kid on the other side of the creek on a damp chilly day.🙄😒 (She is the reason my goats are on lock down at kidding time.) My dairy goat likes to kid in the goat barn. Some of them prefer the run in.

Great job! Looks like a good recipe! 😊❤

This video is amazing with so much information. Thank you Sadly, I am armed with the information and still managed to get burned. I am so disappointed in my first and possible LAST order of a side of beef here in Canada Grass Fed Grain Finished Angus 383 Hanging weight before aging at $6.00 CAD per pound YIELD: 113 lbs roasts, steaks, short ribs 77 lbs Ground Beef (10/90) 2lb 5oz Tenderloin (asked for tenderloin to be cut into 3 pieces) I thought tenderloin should at the very least be 4 pounds!! Not even 3 pounds of tenderloin!!?? 192 lbs Total --- 50% yield in meat I asked for the bones and fat 13 lbs of super clean no meat bones and 11 lbs of tallow. Paid $2300 QUESTION: Should I have expected a bit more yield in the meat? I will be reaching out to the abattoir diplomatically to see if they will get me more bones and fat at the very least.

Herbicides are poisons and stay in the environment for a very long time ! Ypu are poisoning everything just for the sake of your own perspnal preferences. The power companies sprays those poisonous herbocides under their towers here. By law they have to notify the property owners that the towers are sitting on. The power companies DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE LAND THAT THE TOWERS SIT ON ! Yet they come every year and poison the land and all living creatures nearby. By law they have to tell property owners what poisonous herbicides they are spraying. If you ever get tò read the descrìption flyer you will be apalled and frightened by the warnings ! Cancers, deformaties, dead animals, and much more! The company who makes ROUNDUP WEED KILLER is being suid by so many folks for varios sickneses . Yet they still sell it in most stores. Read the warning labels and see for yourself. FYI

I have had my grandsons watch your KZbin with me and they keep telling their Papa that Grammy needs a baby goat 😂😂😂

I love goats, they are so playful, just like puppies!! Not sure where you are located, since I'm new; but I did see a lot of snow and ice on the way for some of the southern states. Hey Meatball!! We had a rabbit farm when I was younger, and I can remember when my brother's rabbit Sandy had 14 baby bunnies. Great ideas as you prep for the snow, cold and ice.

Oh yeah, tight. Im sure that doesn't hurt.😢

New subbie here! Your video got pushed into my feed, so grateful. I love the idea of learning a new skill each month, especially as a homesteader. I haven't attempted BBQ sauce yet, but I will for sure give it a try this summer.

Thanks for sharing Megan! I'm not a BBQ sauce enjoyer, but the rest of my family is so I still appreciate learning recipes to make things they'll enjoy. Definitely would love to have separate kitchen type space for preserving/fermenting and such, but hey we make do with what we got - and you do that very well! 💚
