LEARNING TO GOAT FARM!

I get the chance to leave the row crop fields and head to a goat farm. My friend Marshall takes me around on his familys Goat (among other animals) farm for a day.
I learn about daily chores, the process of raising goats and how to work them.

[@DUDENOHELP]

[@iowANFarmer]

Thanks for watching!

[@jeffryblackmon4846]

I always find young animals are interesting and fun to watch. Thanks for visiting Marshall and thanks for Marshall showing you around.

[@mechanicmike1236]

Thanks Marshall for showing your livestock, I’m thinking a livestock farmer is busier than a grain farmer most of the time. 24/7/365 animals have to eat and drink. Thanks for showing your operation

[@lumpy1603]

Brought back some great memories my grandparents raised sheep for 50 plus years

[@dorothybowlsby8679]

[@iowafarmhandanf2266]

[@monicaluketich3106]

It should be " do you know any good goat jokes?" "Just kidding."

[@TheFriarHenderson]

[@kenturry6558]

Very cool, a cousin of mine grew quite a good business farming lambs in North Dakota a few years back, supplying local restaurants and schools etc.. ended up selling when she had to move back to New Zealand.

[@iowANFarmer]

Kent Urry I’m interested in the Lambs as well. I hope to be apart of the lambing process.

[@icberg2glac]

Great insight

[@iowANFarmer]

[@hollyssimplelife1634]

Please do more videos with this farm. Updates!

[@iowANFarmer]

Holly's Simple Life I’ll try and make it back!

[@RettsAdorablePets]

Thanks for the video... We are in the south... no snow... although it's beautiful I don't want to tend animals it it.... I remember when it snowed NINE INCHES in Louisiana....SIGH!!

[@iowafarmhandanf2266]

Good video. I'm glad Marshall had the patience to put up with you all day. Lol😂🐐

[@damanifesto]

Great video, 26 minutes well spent. Animal farming looks like a lot of work though.

[@dearlgraham3059]

Whata welcome !!

[@Carolinagroundskeeper]

The sounds of the goats bring back memory’s for me. My daughter couldn’t drink cows milk cause she would break out in hives. We found she could have goats milk so for 6 years we hand milked 10 goats twice a day just so she could drink milk. Both my girls were raised on goat milk! Thanks for a great video!!

[@drewleconte845]

The fence needs to hold water to hole a goat

[@jonnies6655]

Try almond or soy or rice milk. Most large grocery stores now carry such.

[@donmacdonald7758]

Vid quality was great

[@abbiezimmerman4994]

Not sure how I landed on your channel but I really enjoyed watching this. Day in the life of a farmer... I call this a funny farm! Every animal you can think of. Looks like our home in Wisconsin, except we don't have sheep! All he needs is some pigs and he would be set.

[@msbaja1]

Hi, thank you guys so much for this video. A lot of good help for me who is just starting the Boer Goat business as of last year and first time kidding. Where do you find the tubing to feed the milk down on the kid when needing help? Also, what type of heat are you providing the sheep while indoors?

[@trentvoc4229]

Goa-tition! yeah that works. you guys are goa-titions

[@andrewpunjila6464]

I wish to visit the place like that to get the hands on skills on how to be professional farmer and it is really very helpful. This is very useful learning

[@greendeane1]

Your video reminded me of how much I loathe snow and Ice and winter. I moved away from it nearly 50 years ago.

[@user-xd2ky4it8m]

[@shopshop144]

[@zman319]

The sound quality its night and day better when you go from behind the camera to infront of it

[@iowANFarmer]

It didn’t have a mic on it yet. I noticed that too!

[@elinino2984]

Great video thanks for the info , I do have a few questions , with 10acews how many meat producing goats could you hold and what type of goats would those be ?

[@patrickhennessy5034]

"If a fence can't hold water ... It won't hold a goat !"

[@TheHogarden]

Thanks Marshall, thinking about starting a goat farm up in Canada. Would love to be able to pick your brain.

[@bluetunder40]

Hey bro If you ever think about going to Ireland, Let me know . Got family Farming over there love to have you hang with the. DAIRY FARM And beef farms.... Awesome video bro

[@iowANFarmer]

Bluetunder40 that be awesome.

[@NM-cs8yc]

That holster is neat. What pliers are you carrying in it? Looked like sidecuts but couldnt really tell?

[@iowANFarmer]

NM 2463 just some cheaply made ones I find laying around.

[@mahkato1]

Great video! I'm just getting into goat meat processing. Got 2 billies and 4 does, 1 mo ago. Any suggestions for profitability? Is Marshall selling to breeders or selling for meat? They look like Boer, which is what I have. I bought my pure bred boer from guy in Marshall MN! Thanks again for the video

Yo that Donkey is Legit

Jared Courtney I work for the railroad & thought that was a track foreman when I first saw it.

Mentor is critical in Beekeeping.

[@stevesheller9223]

Find a mentor. Excellent. An old saying : Knowledge not shared is energy wasted.

[@jameshunt2905]

Weeds fisrt as the nutrition that becomes available is not only recognizable they like the weeds even more.

[@miriambertram2448]

Claiming pens

[@vishalchauhan3900]

So beautiful

[@pyawallah7080]

there is a massive shortage of goat meat in Asia so a good industry to get into

[@stevenkegley3340]

You have a great stage presence however, your friend seemed bothered by your filming. The aerial shots added a unique perspective. Overall well done.

[@eunmijangchannel5803]

I like goat farm

[@user-tb5jc9rt9s]

Hey brother thanks for the update, I am about to start a goats farming in Liberia west Africa, if you will allow me to visit your farm Iand get more ideas I will appreciate. I live in Iowa Altoona.

[@sylviamogan5727]

Any idea where can i get Full Blood Boer Goats to start up my farm

[@johnnymeto816]

I didn't hear it on the video maybe he told you off camera. But what type of goat does marshall recommend for a beginner?

[@moffatChombe-kr2or]

Much interested ❤

[@miriambertram2448]

I always love Guardian donkeys. Just started I could be wrong but that's what you showed in the first few seconds :-)

[@JavedKhan-ws2us]

i love you

[@daveallen4194]

Maybe I missed it, but what are the primary ways that raising goats produces income? (milk?, meat?, raising to sell to other producers?, goat hair?)

[@iowANFarmer]

Dave Allen these are meat goats.
