Saying Goodbye to the Dwarf Goats (And Why Downsizing Doesn't = Failure)

“There is nothing permanent except change.” -Heraclitus
Nigerian dwarf goats were the perfect homesteading animal for us in the beginning...but our homesteading journey is taking us in a different direction. It's a complicated subject with a complicated set of emotions...but we will do our best to explain why goats are no longer the homestead animal we need.

Bye goats🐐💖 God bless.

[@safeathomestead9217]

Love Anne of Green Gables. That is such a funny scene.

[@jamesbrown8718]

Hey Aaron hope you all are doing well. Sure do miss you all here on KZbin. I so enjoyed your videos and find myself going back and watching older videos over and over. Wishing you and your family all the best, is there a chance that you all might be back on KZbin any time soon?

[@triciaacevedo3582]

We love the rain, because we know we need it but this year has been one for the record books. I’m done with it, too. It just finished raining here in LA, good to see the bright sun as the clouds break up! Would love to see flower garden again! 😊

[@4KidsandaFarm]

we are getting rain right now! its nice for the pastures...lol. I dont think we have had this much rain this late in the season!

[@karenmiller6088]

You will definitely miss having goats because they bring so much joy and life to a farm. They are however a chore so I'm sure it's exciting to free up your time for other things. We have 12 Nigerian Dwarfs and I couldn't imagine not having them. You can always change your mind down the road. 😊

[@4KidsandaFarm]

So true, They are a fun lot...and really if we need/want them again we are in a good area....lots of goats around here LOL.

[@jamesbrown8718]

So good to see you all, I always miss your videos when you all don’t post. You all are such amazing family, an had take such great care of your animals, and do a great job on your farm.

[@4KidsandaFarm]

Thanks James! We love sharing our farm life. It really is a passion for us. Life has just gotten to busy for us...We dont know how some people put out 3 videos a week lol.

[@jamesbrown8718]

@@4KidsandaFarm I love you watching your farm, I just appreciate when you all are able to post videos on your channel. I would love if you all put out three videos a week. But understand your busy lives, especially with work, gardening and all the animals. Hope you are doing flowers again this year. Your garden was beautiful last year

[@carenmcfarland7034]

As a Californian I really appreciate your videos! I haven’t been able to find any other KZbin channels showing gardening and homesteading content from California. They all moved to North Carolina 😊

[@UrbanWhiteBuffaloFarm]

Hey y'all, life is a series of chapters in a book. Each chapter is another segment of our lifeline story. There are good and great chapters and some are dark and difficult. We say hello and grow and other times say goodbye and slow down. I have so many dreams of doing this and that making this and that. I see something and I want to do that. The problem is it would take 4-5 lifetimes to do them all! I believe that it is so wonderful to have dreams. There again some dreams require so much time energy and resources that some current projects have to go to make room for the new ones. God bless y'all take care be safe this summer Cya next time

Best Wishes for the goats and it is neat when you know they are going to a Great Home!!! I praise you guys for realizing you do not need the goats at this time and you are taking actions to make your farm stronger!! Have a Super Weekend you all !!! 🤗♥️🙏🏼

[@davidj.mackinney6568]

I wish you could send some of the rain to Oklahoma. We could really use some.

[@4KidsandaFarm]

WE would happily send some!

[@kimfrommn7162]

Sad to see you are not making Videos anymore. 🥲

[@michaelterry3067]

So awesome to see your new video. I know your family has had their hands full. It will be sad to see the goats go. I can rememder when the kids dressed them up, lol

[@aaronedleblute6816]

Really enjoy watching all of your videos! We purchased 10 acres in NC and we are just getting started. Our family has watched just about every video yall have. Looking forward to some more videos and content! PS- I collect hats - where are you getting the redmond hats from haha?

[@4KidsandaFarm]

Thank you so much for watching. We have fallen behind in our KZbin duties as of late. We will Do better. The hats we got from our Redmond friends. I think they have some on their website. How are your 10 acres going? We wish you luck in your homesteading adventure.

[@brich2929]
