Nubian kids are the best. They are all legs and ears, and so derpy. We have a mixed herd of Nubians and Nigerians. One of our Nubians just had triplets at the end of June, so we are enjoying the cuddles.

[@cjfunnyfarm]

That's so fun! Hopefully one day we will have full Nubian babies!!

[@deborahbeattie9103]

Hi have you ever seen weed em and reap channel, like you they have one Nubian and a Nigerian herd. They have crossbred their Nubian with Nigie bucks several times and have kept one for who has now been bred for the first time to a Nigie. So glad I have found your channel, daisy is a beautiful 🐐

[@deborahbeattie9103]

Auto correct changed doe to for! Should say kept one doe! 🐐

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Yes!! We love their channel!! We have bred Daisy to a Nigie in the past and that's the plan for the fall!

[@deborahbeattie9103]

@@cjfunnyfarm 😁 wishing you the best of luck with breeding Daisy 💗

[@nikkiregister91]

I love their channel too. They're the one who got me wanting to homestead. Hoping to get my own property soon so I can start on doing that. I do want a nubian but a Nigerian herd. I'm also want goats that has their horns burned off at a young age bc I have 2 kids under 5. Plus I have nieces and nephews that I watch. So I'm look at weedem and reep and also blue cactus. Blue cactus has polled Gene's. But I like how yall do things too.

Pepper looks beautiful

He is a cutie for sure! Thanks for watching!

Kittens look like ready to go to their forever homes.

[@cjfunnyfarm]

They are!! Two of them are getting picked up next week!

[@helengrant6263]

I love your pigs table manners because they really let you know that they are really grateful for what they have been given and are enjoying eating it!

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Lol! If they aren't smacking and snorting you know they don't like it!

[@krhunt629]

Pepper 🐐❤️ Kittens are cute. "She got my sweat in her nose..." 😂 Fun times on the farm.

Pigs in a pool! Pigs modeling! Derpy Daisy is so cute! You're funny! :-)

Thank you!!

[@sunnybigmc90]

I bought a Nubian from a livestock auction... they saaaaid it was a doe but turned out to be a whether but he is the sweetest goat I have and everybody told me to get rid of him... I’m like no he won my heart over on day one... I could never get rid of him! I named him peanut ironically cuz he has none 😅 Also I love porkchop sooooo much! Jeremy never stop pausing it on him where it looks like he’s smiling!

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Oh no!!! That's crazy!

[@summermcfee43]

Lol those lips on the goat hilarious!!! And pork chop is my favorite piggie ever!!

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Lol! They are funny!! I think he is the star of the show for sure! We love our big pig!

[@jamieandrew-kromer8008]

I love Porkchops smiles!

[@cjfunnyfarm]

He is the best!! Thanks for watching!!

[@shadyacrehomestead4737]

Some Nubians are hard keepers, some are not. Your Nubian is super pretty :)

[@cjfunnyfarm]

She’s a cutie! Thanks!!

[@jmthomas29]

Thank you so much for sharing. I’ve been researching different goat breeds to see what will be a good fit for us. I think I’m leaning towards Nigerian. I appreciate your advice.

[@cjfunnyfarm]

You're welcome!

[@k8cre8s17]

Daisy is such a goof! I love her! How much more does she weigh than say Cici?

[@cjfunnyfarm]

She is so goofy! My guess is that she's between 120-140 lbs. CiCi is usually around 60ish. So almost double!

[@robertmoore1123]

Cute video . My Alpine does the same thing all the time . The fletching .

[@cjfunnyfarm]

It's so funny ;)

[@cmvvlogs3887]

Very informative. Thank you for sharing.

I had Nubian goats as a kid, the spotted doe brought back so many memories! Thanks for the video! I’m getting into goats for personal dairy use and crossing them to meat breeds

New sub here! Supporting sharing the passion for farming ;)

[@Mimi-fg2wu]

Thank you so much! Lovey the video and your explanations on Nubian goats. We just bought our first Toggenburg 🥰 I love your channel! 💙

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Thank you!!!

[@DoggyDoula]

A good friend of mine has a goat business lol she has all males and theyre mostly larger goats. Her goats are all rescues,and they work eating weeds and such in peoples yards! They are so fun and have taught me a ton about goats,including how they love to escape their electric pens...Jack is huge and often lets the others out. By far her little one Dragon is my favorite hes about Tink size lol I really gotta get myself a farm.

[@amandapearl1268]

That pig 🤣🤣🤣🤣 So stinkin cute 😍

[@vtriplej8334]

[@cjfunnyfarm]

lol! Everyone is just goofy and fun around here!!

[@XxLotusLokixX]

I really enjoyed mini nubians. we have nubians, pygymies and boers now. but our first round of goats we had two mini nubians and absolutely loved them. we constantly worm our animals though. we live in a wet area and just started a consistent schedule for all the animals and they've all done super well the last year. that's the only way we've been able to keep our herd alive

[@cjfunnyfarm]

We loved our little mini!! They are so fun!!

[@ambercrisp1434]

I use to breed Nubian goats there awesome sweet sometimes stubborn start funny and beautiful and there milk is delicious

[@highroad3580]

We have Nubians and love them. We are in Georgia. Summer can be the worst time for high worm loads. We don’t worm, not even with herbals. We follow the suggestions of Pat Coleby in her book Natural Goat Care. Wishing you well!

[@cjfunnyfarm]

I'll have to check it out! Thanks for the recommendation!!

[@pissangelmindfreak]

all of these animals are my favorite animals.

[@YOURRAINBOWBRIDGE1111]

Liked and Subscribed - really enjoyed the video raised on a Ranch but unfortunately stuck in the city now Came to the video to find out if it is true that Nubian Goat Milk tastes the best??? But that question did not get answered... Still will be back love to watch the animals... And enjoy what you have to say too... Still would like to know the Taste Test?

[@cjfunnyfarm]

We have some polled genetics and I may go that way when we start to retire some of our does. Horns have never been a safety issue for us, but I totally get the desire to not have them!

[@adventureswithrobinc3262]

Is there a parasite regimen Daisy could go on? With a lot of domesticated animals waiting for symptoms then reacting is harder on the animals. Love seeing pork chop! I laugh every time you say they are divorcing! One more question, when they grass inside the pens get so high, why dont you cut it down? These questions are not snarky comments. I am interested because we are now looking at land, and I am trying to learn the ropes. God Bless!

[@cjfunnyfarm]

We have system we use for parasite management for all our goats. Some goats are just less resistant to parasites so you are constantly fighting them! We let the grass grow up because it helps with parasites. Animals poop on the ground and the high grass helps them eat above the poop which is where all the parasites come from!

[@adventureswithrobinc3262]

@@cjfunnyfarm makes sense. Thank you for educating me. I appreciate you replying back!

[@KayAndrews1950]

Daisy is such a stunning colour 💜 and I love how dorky/lovable she is 👍 I couldn't stop laughing when the little goat curled her lip - just about spilled my coffee 😍 I do hope that Daisy's health remains stable and maybe one day she can produce some tiny Daisies 💜 🦘🐨🦘🐨🦘🐨

[@cjfunnyfarm]

That lip curl always gets me and Zelda does it a lot :)

[@godgoldgunsngolf6733]

Thanks- I’m about to buy a farm and raise Nubians

[@krystelhardesty9960]

Have you tried copper bolus for your goats? I keep Lamanchas, Saanens , Nigerians and live in Florida, so we battle worms all year long (never gets below 40 here). You should check to see if your area is low in copper if it is you can give them the copper. I give it to all my goats 2 times a year once in March and in September. It helps them fight off the worms, and it also improves there health over all. You can tell your goat is low in copper when the darker goats have faded areas in there coats. We show our goats so are around all the breeds of goats and Nubians are know as drama queens that's why we went with the Lamanchas.

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Yes we copper bolus at minimum once a year and evaluate everyone every 4 months and bolus as necessary! Definitely has helped us for sure!

[@michaelkelsey3354]

You guys should definitely get a Nubian buck for daisy she’s adorable !

[@cjfunnyfarm]

I love Nubian babies :)

[@michaelkelsey3354]

C & J Funny Farm in my opinion they are the cutest baby’s :)

[@jamieandrew-kromer8008]

Is gobbles ever “where” she actually belongs? LOL

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Not if she can help it :)

[@Sinsykip]

I think you should buy a buck for daisy she is worth it.

[@cjfunnyfarm]

We will probably try that if she does well this fall with our Nigerian buck!

[@katemcpherson3492]

Luna, the Nubian over at Weed em and Reap, had a romance, through a fence, with a Nigerian two years ago and had a doe named Stella. She is beautiful pure white mix of the two breeds. Luna is retired now, and Stella was just put in with a Nigerian buck recently.

[@Sinsykip]

@@katemcpherson3492 yes i know i am so excited for stella's babbies 😂

[@letstalkkennel]

I’m getting really interested in the Nubian Goats! What climates are they best suited for? Does anyone have any info on acquiring them? I live in Sweden and they aren’t introduced here yet

[@onalenoir2248]

We are located in Arizona, any tips and tricks on how goats can thrive in our desert climate? We haven't purchased any goats yet but are doing research on which breed would be the best 🤔

[@foggypatchfarm6048]

I'm in central Texas and have been thinking about Nubians (cheese making), though I have liked the oberhasli too. I wonder if they do ok here. You sound like my sister in law in East Texis. ;-)

[@cjfunnyfarm]

They do fine in the heat, parasites have been my only issue!!

[@marcydonnette1970]

Noise and the vet said that the youngsters got snake bit b/c they were Nubian. Had 2 Nubian does that chose to kid out in the rain and I had to find huge muck boots just to get out there. One kid was slipped through the fence. We took them in b/c we had to bottle feed them since mom didn't come when she didn't have the injection for CAE. Had Alpines, Saanens, Nubians and Nigerians. Thr Nigerians would not let us milk them but the one I really liked had tons of milk in her huge banana udders. Kids would not let the kids nurse. 😒

[@Eternalsecuity]

Nubians are awesome goats.

[@cjfunnyfarm]

They are! We love our Daisy goat!

[@susan5833]

Do you have pictures or video of Daisy's kids

[@cjfunnyfarm]

I have a few pictures of Violet the only baby Daisy has had. Poppy is her granddaughter!

[@carolcampbell6102]

Are you not afraid that Big Pig's tusks might accidentally hurt you or Petunia?

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Not really. He has never been aggressive toward me at all. He is very chill! Pigs have their own communication and Tunie kind of knows how to get away from him if he is angry :)

[@tammybaker8577]

How come you don't milk Daisy?

[@cjfunnyfarm]

We haven't been able to get her bred!

[@kaysulham6710]

Are you milking full size goats?? What are you using for a milker??

[@persimmonhillfarm9210]

I know you talked about it but when will Shadow get fixed?

[@cjfunnyfarm]

In the next couple of weeks. Some of her kittens are leaving next week and I'm hoping to take her after that!

[@Heathharris508]

How do you tame them my female Nubian it trying to fight me and jumping up and hitting I’ve tried everything

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Lots of time with them and lots of treats. Pairing your self with food all the time. Also some goats just have bad personalities. We’ve had to sell some in the past.

[@lolaoye2892]

I want to get a goat for milk production. Because you need to breed the , What do you do with the kids?

[@cjfunnyfarm]

We sell our babies as pets and to other farms who want to breed milk goats!

[@tomfinn9887]

The goats are funny, but Pork Chop is my favorite. Except for Duke the Dog.

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Duke is a big sweetie for sure!

[@tommitchell2174]

Do you have to give Daisy a manicure from time to time?

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Yep! Everyone around here has to have their toes trimmed!

[@megs7019]

Awe poor goats .... y must “Daisy such a bully to the others?” Dang the kitty’s are growing like crazy! When will the mom get fixed and kittens find forever homes? She is a high maintenance breed goats? She very pretty goat

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Daisy is the queen :) lol some of the kittens go to their homes this week and we are hoping to get the momma cat fixed as well!

[@karenm6887]

Omg this horns, don't they scare you? Do they hurt each other?

[@cjfunnyfarm]

They really don't. Goat's are not aggressive animals. They really aren't a problem. They head butt each other a bit but we've never really had trouble.

[@jeanjacobs2758]
