How We Out Winter Our Spanish Goat Herd In Minnesota!!🐐❄️🐐

We had to pull an audible! The weather forecast changed and started showing that we were supposed to get 6-10” of snow overnight so we had a load of hay delivered. I hauled a couple bedding bales over as well. The goats did great through the snow storm! They looked to be in excellent condition but when we started rolling the bale of hay out they were still excited to eat it! The wind is going to be picking up and we were strategic in getting the round bale rolled out as close to the woods as possible so they could have a nice windbreak! Our goats are super hardy even a couple week old baby is weathering the storm!

They look happy Jordan

I believe winter has arrived, the goats look great! Withe the extended fall you would think you would be all ready for winter. Thats how it goes though, plan to adapt, and use every day you can to get projects done. Need a couple sleds in the farm truck for those kids to go down hill! Have a wonderful day Jordan.

[@WholesomeFamilyFarms]

It definitely has! Yeah we have plenty of hills for sledding! Have a great day George!

Hi Jordan, it is a bummer that you got sick just in time for the bad weather. Great entertainment and exercise for the kids to run with that bale down the hill. Next weekend it is supposed to get below zero here so I guess winter has arrived. Happy Birthday to your daughter April.

[@WholesomeFamilyFarms]

Thanks Ben! Yeah this is a nasty cold of some sort! I’ll battle it out! God bless!

[@SasquatchBioacoustic]

Tough goats! Hope you feel better soon.

[@WholesomeFamilyFarms]

Thanks! Me too!

[@french-canadianfarmer5049]

Happy birthday April! I thought girls named April always had their birthday that month. Looks like winter now.

[@WholesomeFamilyFarms]

Haha no kidding! How’s the weather there now?

[@french-canadianfarmer5049]

Going in to highs of -5F and some snow coming for the next couple days.

[@joshhorvat8247]

With all the hauling hay back and forth you could benefit from a bale bed or spike bed truck!

[@WholesomeFamilyFarms]

I totally agree! I think I’m actually going to just feed this load of hay there then I’ll haul the goats to the home farm so I don’t have to drive so much. Since the snow came at such short notice I needed something right away. So that’s just what we did.

[@chadtosh6831]

It’s a cold one today. -23c with a -40 windchill. Had some snow mixed in it too. The goat’s didn’t want to leave the barn except for their grain today. I moved their hay feeder closer to the doorway till it warms up. Don’t want them losing any ground when we hit -40 at nights later this week.

[@WholesomeFamilyFarms]

We’re not cold yet but it’s coming!

[@BenandHannahVeerman]

Do you leave your e-nets in ground all winter once it freezes? How many joules is your charger and how many nets?

[@WholesomeFamilyFarms]

I only leave the ones in that I use. The fencer on this farm is 36 joules. The other farm where the goats also spend alot of time in has a 46 joule fencer.

Y los perros que comen? 😮 ahí solos.😮

[@WholesomeFamilyFarms]

We feed them scraps from deer hunting during a few of the winter months. They love it and do well on it. I don’t worry about them harming the goats.

Each organisation. Of whichsoever walk of life. Has the proven methodology that works in own particular systems. Hydrogen peroxide. 35% food grade. A few drops, 3 x 3 times daily for adults can work wonders for illnesses. Own free choice. God bless!

[@WholesomeFamilyFarms]

Thanks! I’ll have to give that a try.

[@antonhuman8446]

And large pharma. And ALL the conc(d)octors whose study loans have been paid off by large pharma. And thousands of advocates to the contrary, who bugle on the internet, and on large pharma's payrolls as well, will rebuke this advice. Also that Ivomec and Panacur heals many types of cancer. Because. It interferes with profits. God bless! Give gas. RSA.

[@johnjacob442]

Yes works with sinuses. I nebulized 1drop of 3% food grade HP. It helped with sinus infection I’ve had for years

[@antonhuman8446]

I am on a 39-day protocol.Leading up to taking 25 drops. In a certain order. Three times daily. Today 18 drops. For a certain reason. Makes one feel a bit nauseous. Only a bit. So an I fine. Seen that someone upped to 50 drops. But I'n not at all certain that this was three times daily. I'll stay well clear of the latter. @@johnjacob442
