I don't know what was cutest, the chickens being shoved out of the barn like a persons first shove out of a plane, or the goats jumping the stream! So nice to see the goats eating the brambles and grasses. I watch another youtube channel and they have 5 goats that eat nothing but grass and the woman's family just got 2 sheep for her birthday. All eating on about a half acre. Its crazy! Your place is turning into a real working farm and that is awesome! Blessings!

Here's one goat tip from Serbia: sometimes when a goat doesn't have milk, stinging nettle can provoke a goat's udder start producing it, even if she didn't have a kid that year. Apparently old goat folks here realized that if they took no milking goats across the pasture that had stinging nettle on it, their udders would get stung a little, and the reaction would be appearance of milk :) So then, when they had a goat with no milk, they would rub a little nettle tips on udder to make the milk happen. :)

@pianovoce7 жыл бұрын
I myself personally never had a goat that had no milk, and that it appeared when I did this. But that is an old folks remedy here. The best that my experience goes, is that I know a person who's goat had no kids yet and is not pregnant, she's about 18 months old. She does have great genetics though, her mother is a great milk goat, and the mother of her father is also a great milk goat. She started having full udder of milk after going on a full day pasture with goat keeper and other goats. The goat keeper herds them and takes them to woods and bushes, they walk up to 10 miles per day, where they can choose what branches and what leafs they like to eat. They climb rocks and trees to reach their food. That type of terrain is full of stinging nettle, so burning their udder a little while reaching the favorite leaf is an everyday event for these goats, also falling, headbutting etc. Anyways, she asked in a group is it normal and how come her goat started giving milk, and is it even ok to consume it, and few of the answers were - that it could have happened because of the stinging nettle, and that it is one of the old folks remedies, that they would even rub some on udder to make the milk appear :)

I am confused when I watch all these homesteading videos and everyone does something different but no one gives specifics. Can you help me PLEASE? I just want to know how to feed my babies!!

Sorry for bombing your comment thread...but yes I have been told that goats eat poison ivy. I only know because we have a TON of poison ivy on our property. In fact we once watched a mini documentary about a company that hires out goats to clear and KILL poison ivy. Evidently poison ivy is one of their favorite things to eat.
