couldn't help but notice how young the vet looked, thinking he is not long out of school. how blessed to have one to come out to your place and also give you so much useful advice.

[@steveseiler8782]

Really good video showing how much work goes into caring for Goats cheers

[@SansaStarkofWinterfell]

This vet seems like a really wonderful vet, answering all the questions. Treating the kids so sweetly. I really enjoy your channel guys, it's grown so much from the very first video. Great job! 🌾Be Blessed ღ 🌿

[@hollyturner4202]

Interesting to see the details of the medical side of goat care. I hear friends talking about their dairy & fiber goats (& dairy & fiber sheep), and am grateful for all their work & care of their animals. There's always much more to husbandry than we first think! Blessings to you all & your animals. Always love to see the 2 & 4 legged kids interacting.

[@batpherlangkharkrang7976]

Hi.......Art and Bri, thank you for sharing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🎥👍👍👍

[@CatalpaCreekFarm]

that is a great price for the vet (especially for all the blood work he did)..he was very knowledgeable too. I wish we had a vet like that by us. great video.. thank you so much

[@rachellegreen9799]

He is an awesome vet! Very informative and efficient! We are happy to have him too! Great check up.

[@patbootie9552]

ell, how proud that you all must feel!!! That is quite an A+ vet report. First time goat owners, first time worming and success, first time dealing with a lice breakout and success!!! Weight is good along with great eye color. Once you deal with the hooves trims then you can say you have got most basics down, Yay!!!!!!! With the worming, fleas and mite control in dogs and puppies, it wasn't until we rescued 2 small puppies and a new Mama, that we lost control for a whole 2 seasons and then winter helped us with flea and mite outbreak. Congratulations.

[@Brifromscratch]

Thanks much.

[@Willaren]

Really informative. Thank you for taking the time to video when you probably just wanted to watch and listen. Each time I take my cat into the vet for his leg (past break) and wait, I come out with a $200+ bill. Your mobile vet with his services and information is a great value.

[@lisaj5834]

I don't have a homestead but I love watching your videos! So informative!

[@TallWeedsandRust]

It's easy to tell that they're a great vet team! You're very blessed to have found them! And, how awesome that they let you film! Took me back to my vet asst days and doing farm trips. -A

[@imtethered1]

A good vet is worth their weight in gold!

[@CanadianFarmGirl1]

Coolest vet ever! I Love the butt glove balloons thats so much fun

[@flyifri]

Very interesting, and very informative. Peace of mind goes a long way. Stay your course, and thank you very much for sharing this Vet visit.

[@TheCarolbrummett]

I still can not express to both of you how much I enjoy your videos. I feel like I'm being 'Home Schooled' too. I have learned so much about Farm life. So many things us 'City Folks' have taken for granted. I am excited and look forward to you videos everyday. Thank you so much for sharing your life, your knowledge and your Family with us. I know farming is hard work but nothing is really that hard when you enjoy what you are doing. :)

[@lubaciloci6842]

Carolй

[@ehunter9635]

Super interesting!! Really enjoy your videos!

[@reneed1553]

Great vet visit. ty for sharing😊 as always enjoy your videos. That is a great price considering all he did. God bless

[@pattymassey5357]

Bri you seem to just be glowing lately ! Having the goats has brighten you!

[@1994abbygirl]

Definitely a learning day! Blessings

[@moejaime2654]

the baby goats are so cute !

[@Jombi1950]

Good job done. Better the vet comes when they are healthy , then if they are sick. Love watching a vet at work.

[@conniefrye4401]

I know you guys feel at ease, that your goats got a good report from the vet. I'm so glad that they are all healthy. This means you are really taking care of them. The cost I know is not pocket change, but the price wasn't bad. Thanks for sharing. God Bless

[@ThePlantBasedHomestead]

Hahaha, LOVED the balloons! Art, your the typical nurse asking those questions. My husband (a cardiac care RN) is exactly like you. HOWEVER, seeing the needle going into the jugular almost had me passed out. Hahaha This being the wife of an RN who needed a severe bloody nose packed and my husband told the staff that his wife needed help before she fainted. They left him and went straight to me poor guy. You nurses are hilarious though. Everything is a science project and fun fact adventure.

[@erosendaul]

Great, informative video! Looks like you found yourselves a good vet!

[@girishampady8518]

Very good videos.. Truely through the nature..

[@WholesomeRoots]

Wow, this was really cool to watch! I have no goat vet options in my area! To have a good mobile vet is absolutely awesome! Art, my friend who has goats and is a nurse does her own blood draws so in the future you could do it yourself and send off to lab. I want to learn how!? I will be trying to learn much more vet care because I have no other option. Good thing I went to an Agricultural High School and majored in Animal Science! I loved seeing the diapers drying in the sun! Another great day on the homestead!

[@Brifromscratch]

Thanks. We do feel blessed to have him.

[@NaturesCadenceFarm]

What a great vet...he sounded very helpful. What did he say about the milk?

[@Brifromscratch]

He said to pasteurize it.

[@smokeyangelav]

In the meantime or forever Bri?

[@1wolfpup]

Wow, that was awesome to see. Thank you, for sharing this with us.

[@sassycindy3041]

good morning Goats xox

[@sherthom5672]

I don't own goats but really appreciate this video. There is a lot of information on KZbin that is just not accurate, so it was nice hearing from a true expert.

[@atheanicholls2199]

great job you guys taking care of the goats.

[@kimmmunsey4184]

Looks like Grace was all in-- VET IN THE MAKIN

[@Brifromscratch]

Could be.

[@NykkeyB]

Lots of great information!!! Thank you for sharing.

[@Becca-Becca-Becca]

What a great video again you are getting so good at editing love your kids! (All of them) thank you for sharing and making me smile

[@Brifromscratch]

You are welcome.

[@northdakotapink370]

informative thanks for sharing

[@deusvitae69]

Great video today! I learned a bunch :)

[@cleverkimscurios3783]

This is so neat! Thank you so much for showing it (and thanks to the vet and assistant/tech for agreeing to being put on here). The disbudding and the hoof care are the things that made me the most nervous. I know I won't do the disbudding myself, but I am less scared to do hoof care now. I mean, not now, but when we have goats. Interesting but grody info about the lifespan of the worms! Love the sweet ending.

[@Brifromscratch]

The worms will never cease to freak me out!!! But I have to learn about them in order to control their population. - Bri

[@dc0145a]

You are very fortunate to have found such a knowledgeable small ruminant vet; especially one that knows Famacha. Here in the northeast it can be difficult to find knowledgeable small ruminant vets. What's his name? Dr Justin ?

[@cinnamonpixie4359]

Loved this video. It was very informative. Thanks so much for sharing!

[@JAW88]

I love the cleric music first thing in the morning thank you. Mobile vets are so convenient

[@Brifromscratch]

Don't know what cleric music is, but we like it.

[@eveny119]

Do you mean Celtic? I believe the history of bluegrass is all celtic (Ireland, wales, etc)

[@JAW88]

ART and BRI lol I meant Celtic

[@Brifromscratch]

I was lost. Should have caught that.

[@DukeofFoxboro]

12:25 ... so cute! :)

[@dione.c.3432]

Love the gloves. We use to wear them when preg. testing first calf heifers...cauz I gotta eat with these hands.

[@ucantseeme33]

excellent video, thanks

[@teresa-greeneyes3886]

enjoyed watching

[@milliepankow1326]

I love the music soundtrack.

[@SB-000]

Many mobile services now days.I was a mobile Notary Public for eight years.During that time. I notarized documents for travelng x-ray techs, and traveling nurses.Enjoy your videos.

[@SevenSproutsFarmstead]

Thank you for telling us the cost of the visit there at the end! I always hate when people don’t talk pricing lol.

[@sherrithompson1688]

I love watching your videos. I heard the vet mention about a different halter/collar. Did you happen to get a picture or video of it? Thanks and great job. Love your homestead. Can't wait to start mine in a couple of years.

[@littlefootprintsbigdreams4099]

very good info

[@livinglife8333]

290$ is SUPER DUPER CHEAP for the things he did, good heavens we would have paid about 500-600$ here in MI. We are about 136 miles away from Dr. Jan Pols veterinary clinic, he has a show on tlc. If we ever have large animal needs we go to him.

[@Brifromscratch]

We were very happy to pay this price.

[@sassycindy3041]

i love moblie vets im way out in country mine comes in 2 hours to get to me i find hey care more to and give more time to u and animals

[@juliaschnelle6385]

if you're feeding grains you should soak then to break down the phytic acid which will make the zinc bio-available to the goats(and chickens)

[@Brifromscratch]

Good point! Thanks for the info. We soak our grains and the chicken's grains. Why not the goats!

[@StephWebb17]

we have a daughter named Aubrey Joy and we call her Joy Joy as well 💜

[@bambraparker]

Hi, Im a new subscriber and i love ur videos. I don`t get any work done lol. Hit de like butten by every video i watch. Much love from New Zealand!!!

[@leahhitz7183]

💖

[@mwdub02]

$290 for a mobile vet visit isn't bad at all.

[@Brifromscratch]

That is exactly how we felt.

[@CherishHopePhotography]

**sigh** this makes me miss working at the vet office. You have a very knowledgeable vet! Keep him lol.

[@samstevens7888]

You have to much going on at home to miss working at the vets lol

[@CherishHopePhotography]

Sam Stevens you would think, but I do somedays. Thank goodness my animals do keep me busy

[@samstevens7888]

Lots and lots of babies, even ones you didnt know about lol

[@Brifromscratch]

We plan to keep him.

[@williamblair3610]

$290 wasn't bad, it cost almost that much for me to take the 🐕 to the vet once a month

[@palndan]

Love the music

[@katr3110]

Goats are officially too much for me. LOL I did not know you had to deal with all that de-worming and hoof trimming. You guys seem to be doing a great job as newbies.

[@Brifromscratch]

All pleasure now. Maybe it will be work down the road.

[@ve5618]

art said he was a nurse ,he immediately began sounding like Ben Stiller .

[@44ronie]

I wanted to see what kind of harness he recommended for the goats & when do you use a harness or do you just keep it on for life?

[@Brifromscratch]

We forgot to look at this.

[@LifeFromNature]

Awesome vet!!!! How can people find a mobile vet like that in any area? Most mobile vets I have looked up only do pets.... not livestocks

[@Brifromscratch]

We are very fortunate to have a mobile vet. As far as finding one, just ask around to folks who have livestock.

[@dianegribbin8815]

Arthur's eyes tell a different story at the end. Lol. How much a pint of milk! Xx

[@Brifromscratch]

What story do they tell?

[@dianegribbin8815]

ART and BRI s it looked like he was doubting the vets fee x

[@Brifromscratch]

I did look funny looking back. Not sure why. -A

[@jvenema86]

so wonderful beautiful video my best friends i love it see so nice what’s the name from the doctor?

[@HilltopFarmHomestead]

What's up Art? You seemed troubled at the end of that video!

[@Brifromscratch]

I did have a funny look on my face. Think it was just squinting into the light.

[@cbwmama8461]

Oh -- you have your own James Herriot (All Creatures Great and Small) :o) :o) His cost is very reasonable especially since he brought an assistant (vet student?). You are very lucky. Question -- have you tried any of the raw goat's milk directly on the baby's eczema? I know people use goat's milk soap -- but was wondering if raw goat's milk dabbed on the skin has helped.

[@Brifromscratch]

The lady is his wife.

[@madiraabe9945]

The vet I use cost's $70 just to see one animal. And that's not a mobile visit. $290 is very cheap!

[@Chronicles1611]

Worms freak me out! When we started our goat farm we lost one of our very first goats because of worms. I was given advice from a vet to give my goats medicated sweet feed every day and I would never have problems with worms. I've had my goats for years and haven't had one worm problem since. Thought I would pass on the advice !!

[@ka6148]

Lol balloon ha 😉

[@Jonathan-tr9tx]

Do you feed the goats dried leaves and small branches? I heard those are good foods for goats

[@Brifromscratch]

Some. Planning on planting willow this spring specifically for this purpose.

[@TheDawn0310]

Do you know what kinda of "poor" hay the vet was referring to? We are new to raising goats as well and want to get this right. We were given free hay but it is full of weeds such as fox tails.

[@Brifromscratch]

Less stems, more blades and fine green grass and leaf material. Legume contents increases protein. Not experts on this but learning.

[@Brifromscratch]

That describes good hay. Bad hay is lots of stems, too mature, looks more like straw. Dry, yellow.

[@sassycindy3041]

did they say when the last pregnant one is due to give birth or a rough idea?

[@Brifromscratch]

The owner before us had Flopsy bred. She is due May 11. We did ask him to do a pregnancy test to make sure she is actually pregnant.

[@randygrisham1060]

I tried to become a supporter of yours with patreon but it wouldn't load...I tried!!!

[@staceyatcrazycrowfarm7373]

What was the name of that harness he recommended? Thanks for the video!! Thumbs double-up!

[@davidsandlin9686]

Stacey Capuano he called it a sheep halter.

[@Brifromscratch]

He said it was a sheep halter and we totally forgot to look at the one he brought.

[@karenwilliams4969]

what kind of nursing do you do art? I'm a retired nurse er critical care thirty years.

[@karenwilliams4969]

RN or LPN?

[@Brifromscratch]

RN.

[@kaylynivey3220]

What did you need to taste for before you drank the milk?

[@Brifromscratch]

It is called Johnes Disease.

[@testingdpc]

I thought there was gonna be a kiss at 12:26 but i guess that is for another episode :)

[@MrsSoapPeddlersHomestead]

You have a great vet there! We do not :(

[@williamchristopher1560]

Sounded like they knew there stuff. Husband and wife? How much did they charge?

[@maryclendenin8565]

An excellent tip from your vet....neck collars are BAD for goats.

[@Brifromscratch]

What he said is that they are bad for using for restraint. Please let us know what you have used as an alternative and how it has worked for you.

[@ClayBransom]

get an Electric Hoof Knife for their hooves, its quicker, better, look at the video on youtube

[@Brifromscratch]

Will look at them. We are happy with out little shears now.

[@erick.4793]

Additional coment: also can be administered topically for infections, burns, fungus

[@Brifromscratch]

Neat. First time hearing abut it.

[@glendaruff125]

Is your baby's face chapped? I noticed it is very red. I had to keep vaseline on my son's face when he was outside in the wind.

[@Brifromscratch]

He has eczema.

[@glendaruff125]

Oh ok I understand.

[@SarcasticLipStick]

Is their human baby sick!?! Geez he looks like he has... mumps? Hope not

[@helenboula3538]

y'all need a couple to move in with you guys to help you with the children all the chores the farm cooking clean and I don't know how your wife is doing all this and the children as well take care of your wife.

[@dc0145a]

Art, are you okay? You had a 'concerned' look on your face at end of video. :(

[@Brifromscratch]

I'm ok. Promise. I noticed that too. -A

[@Brifromscratch]

haha! I totally thought he was all cute smiling at me at the end of the video. - BRi
