We Got Our GOATS!

[@fernandog.aguirre2791]

What a great way to raise a family. Olivia will carry on all these great moments and lessons learnt all her life. The love od Mom and Dad, the farm and life foundations! God Bless you all!!!!

[@mathbrown9099]

Figaro! Always on the alert! You guys have the coolest cat! Figaro’s more a dog, than a cat!😊

[@Servant_of_Christ]

This channel has become soooooo freaking good! Thanx for being a alternative to the hysteric channels I can't watch whitout getting a seizure!

[@evalinawarne1337]

This is my first time seeing kind of when the goats came. Nice to know the 3 knew each other before they came to their new loving home.

[@maureenritoridis814]

What a lovely homestead you have! I’ve so enjoyed on catching up on old videos,seeing you built and expand ,👍🐐🐖🐓💖

[@arciafrench993]

A good healthy looking group. I raised up to 40 goats up north. They brushed out on the earthen dam for the state there. You’ll have many happy fun filled days ahead.

[@6996katmom]

The goats are awesome and Olivia's laugh is so cute. Now the goats need some of those stumps to climb on that ya'll buried. Have a Blessed Day!

[@mountainviews5025]

Watching old videos and I really love doing this you guys are a part of our lives we love y'all like family thank you for sharing with us

[@virginiareid5336]

The goats seem to be very gentle. I really liked Gina new scarf!

[@debketelsen3742]

Might I suggest a smal building project for the goats. Make a small feed holder and hang it up from the floor inside the barn for overnight munching. You could even make it movable to keep them interacting with their enviroment. Bored goats are destructive goats. Kind of like toddlers and pigs. LOL!! THEY ARE SO DARNED CUTE!!!!!!!!!!

[@nancyfahey7518]

That was a nice closeup of the baby. Thanks. Happy for you all.

[@arlynelauro9872]

I love the substantial structures you build for your animals!

[@ellenarchambault8526]

Love watching how much you guys have developed and quickly reached so many goals. Frozen sweat equity for sure. God bless you, family, and homestead.

[@marlenereimchen9141]

They are very cute goats. Very plump and healthy looking. I'm not used to the dwarf breeds I have the larger breeds. Mine are mostly Boer/Nubian cross. I wouldn't leave the plastic chairs in there because they could get caught up in them. I've had mine get their heads caught in buckets because I'll forget to remove it. They have a tendency to get into things you don't want them to get into. I've made a lot of dumb mistakes over the years and I've learned a lot of new things too. Lots of joys and heartaches.

[@cynthiaatlegacyhomestead5422]

Gina and Olivia ..too funny..lounging around the goat yard with goats in your lap..looks like you all had a great day..enjoy

[@bogillespie4774]

Looks like they found him a nice home good luck with the goats

[@lilbitatatime3763]

Congratulations on your new additions! 7:01 Great mother daughter and newbie moment! 8:27 Mrs Lumnah's escape spot! Looking forward to more fun times with all the critters. 👍

[@dawndrake5833]

So sweet to watch you with your first goats.

[@goatgal7884]

The goats are just beautiful!!!!We got twins yesterday afternoon from one of our boer goats.Just starting with boer goats about a year and a half ago, but have had milk goats for about 10 years now.We just love our goats.Waiting for two more nannies to have their babies this month.Its always so exciting.

[@waryr11711]

Try shaking a bucket w/ a hand full of grain in it everytime you want them to come to you. After awhile they should come to you w/ no probs :) Good to see the pigs are able to get out to the green stuff :)

[@tennesseegirl1215]

Congratulations on your new farm members, so cute. Have a blessed week

[@jackywaldon359]

The goats make a nice addition to your farm. I really love goats.

[@littlemisswannabehomesteader]

Looks like the goats are loving their new beautiful home! And look at that smile on your girls faces. Have fun and enjoy this new adventure!

[@chelemichele1524]

Happy goats..looks like they adjusted quickly to their new home. 🌻have a beautiful day🌻

[@ginacota9724]

What a great and memorable day that was for your family 😃

[@donlatimer5114]

you need to put a 2 x 4 or a 2 x 6 about six to10 inches above the ground around the inside of the goat fence to keep the goat from standing on the wire fencing when looking out at what’s going on outside the fencing.🐐 🌽 👍 🐐 💜 you all seem to be having too much fun playing with the goats, enjoy seeing ever one happy enjoying the goats, even seeing Figaro sneaking around behind the goat pen

[@woodchipful]

More happy well looked after animals at Lumnah Acres!!

[@stan3198]

Great day for the Acres !!!

[@homesteadinthewoods4841]

Looks like the goats seemed to settle in quickly !! Enjoy !!

[@reginaldsmith7897]

Good morning everyone the goats have finally arrived 👀 you in the morning....💃🏾🕺🏾💃🏾🕺🏾💃🏾🕺🏾🖐🏿

[@lisabooker6405]

Yayyyyy goats 🐐!! You all looked absolutely thrilled. Especially the girls. Very happy for you guys. God Bless ~Lisa

[@gregkahle9046]

Awesome! The goats seem to have gotten comfortable real quick. The kids are a bit bigger than I was expecting; too cool. Bet you didn't know your feeder would double as a bed lol. Also they didn't waste any time going for the greens/weeds...sure they're going to love it when they can be out and about. Baby steps for sausage and links it looks like. S@#%, if I got zapped on the nose, I'd slow my roll a bit as well lol. Have a great week everybody.

[@KMalcolmful]

Adorable! And Figaro and the chickens so curious!

[@Banjo-lm2wl]

you guys are such good healthy kind farmers and clean too. watching and following from Australia xxx

[@caramc5013]

Nice goat house and yard. Looked real cozy for them at night.

[@myenchantedlife5262]

The day is here!!! Such sweet goats! Happy milking

[@gallerytattoo4527]

your videos are greatly appreciated.thanks for giving us a glimpse into the beautiful farm and life you have created.very cool to see.

[@straubdavid9]

I had to laugh when the little goat ended up IN the feeder ..... kinda caught me by surprise ~8^) Figaro has a little corner to spy on the goats from. I bet you could put together a goat "jungle gym" out of big wire spools in the middle of their enclosure for them to climb on ..... Olivia might like that too lolzzzzzzz! Take care New Ham Shire!

[@richardbohlingsr3490]

Looks like everyone had a great day. Good looking goats.

[@terribethreed8464]

Love your new goats! You should make them a small hay feeder for their stall & something to secure a water bucket, so they won't tip over their water. Your family is a perfect fit for your new goats lol. Have fun with them! Congrats!

[@LumnahAcres]

thanks, great Ideas. I will have to keep my eye out for a small hay feeder

[@why_said_i5818]

I love this video! I admire your preparation ahead of bringing home your animals. You do a great job with your builds. Everything looks neat and well cared for. The goats are beautiful and sweet.

[@randysimons9802]

my thoughts too. lots of people unprepared for livestock. he is making others look bad.lol. with his well built fences and housing.:-)

[@sathiskumar7594]

Awesome!! Pretty healthy goats. You should check "wholesome roots" for tips and tricks on feeding, avoiding toxic plants, hoof trimming and free choice minerals. She is amazing goat lady.

[@mlo6965]

Happy for your family. I always look forward to your video's...…..and now the goat's......Blessing's to your family and animal's!!!!!!!!!

[@chadsshow2010]

Wow. I just watched you finishing the goat barn just minutes ago. And now the goats are here. Congrats Lumnah Acres. Can you add some tree stumps for them to climb on?

[@terinaleblanc9196]

So happy for you all!! Everything is looking great!! I wish you all happiness and success.

[@ynotshowme2ur3times]

Go to your local phone or electric company and ask to get on the list for wire spools. The big ones make awasome got hoof trimming table and climbing on them. We nailed roofing shingles on the top too to help them grind down thier own hooves. The small ones make good coffee tables while you sit out with them........ps........get wide bottom cups if drinking coffee with goats.......they are rude

[@randysimons9802]

good ideas. I like shingles to help with hooves.

[@ynotshowme2ur3times]

Its amazing how well they work. As they jump up and down on it you find hoof dust and particles on it.........and if you dont have a hose to rinse it off now and then.......in a decent rain storm go broom it off.......it cleans up fairly easy with water and a little elbow power

[@Mrs-Lewis]

anthony thibeault wow! Great tip!

[@fayecartwright4202]

Good morning. What a pleasant way to start my day. Just wanted to say that in my experience, goats love a sleeping bench.

[@LumnahAcres]

Thanks, Olivia wants to make them one.

[@kaydickerson1229]

Angora goats make lovely sweaters !

[@aliverseidge]

Fantastic. You all seem so happy. I'm excited for your family's continuing adventures. Thank you for sharing.

[@simidhel]

The goats are just lovely and so cute. The ease with which the baby goat could leap over the back of the chair had me slightly concerned about the height of the fence but I guess you'll see. What I liked most about this video though, was simply seeing how happy you all were, after the long a winter, to just be relaxing together in the sun surrounded by the paradise you've worked so hard to build together. Inspiring stuff! :) 🌲 🐐 🐖 🐕 👩🏻 🐈 🐓🌳

[@LumnahAcres]

Thanks Simon.

[@TWROC96]

Al, you, Gina and Libby are creating a GREAT life there on your homestead. Your passion and joy just shines through with each project and addition to the homestead. By the way, have you seen the bears again? Will you leave the goats out during the day when you are at work with the bears around?

[@LumnahAcres]

Thanks, no we havent seen the bears since. The goats gets to stay out during the day and locked up at night

[@mahealaniw]

Awesome! Love the goat addition and Livie looks like she's gonna be an awesome human big sister to them 😊. Congratulations! 🐐

[@yotagerlie]

Such adorable additions to Lumnah acres love em

[@evephillips6701]

Very lovely looking goats...cool names for them...their pen and yard is nice...buttercup is cute...have a great day!🐤🐄🐐🐱🐆👋

[@jkhenderson1]

What adorable babies!

[@coreydewhurst9481]

Love the goats 🐐 welcome to goat world there such sweet pets 👍😀Boy the pigs are growing so much ❤️👍🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@1wolfpup]

Beautiful goats! They are adorable. You did a great job. God bless your family.

[@NaturesCadenceFarm]

Sooo cute. Love the names. Can't wait to see what recipes you guys make with goats milk! 👍

[@BlueCactusDairyGoats]

Congratulations on the goats! You'll never be the same!

[@LumnahAcres]

Thanks! I hope for the best! Lol

[@barbarakujawa320]

What a kick to see your new goat Hope and then the vid of your getting the other ones. Thx SO much for sharing!

[@joeandcheyenne6922]

Yay!! Looks like the goats are settling in and everyone is happy! Congratulations!

[@rsoubiea]

maybe until they learn the routine you can get them to their barn with a little bucket with grain in it. they will follow you for that. the babies are older than i thought they would be for some reason, they are good looking animals and seem very healthy. so is mama used to bring milked?

[@50shadesofgreen]

i bet it all worth it, just seeing the enjoyment on Olivia's face !!

[@LumnahAcres]

it sure is. we are all loving having the goats

[@dianehall5345]

Awesome goats! You're right, they are smaller than Nubians. Very healthy, friendly and perfect for you, Gina and Olivia. You'll just have to see how bouncy they get regarding the fence height... The folks you bought them from get an A+ for the condition of their herd!

[@jessies3236]

diane hall what kind are they again? I want a milk goat eventually.

[@dianehall5345]

Hi Jessie, I forgot what kind Al bought. He can share that with you. I only have past experience with Nubians and love them. Their milk tastes very close to cow's milk when chilled. And they are playful as well. Their ears flop down. They remind me of small deer. We raise grass fed beef and I can't put a Jersey in with the herd, so I'm hoping to have a couple of Nubians. Best of luck! My next project is Californian rabbits :-)

[@cicy8167]

So fun having Goats. They are really cute too.

[@crinick9344]

I was excited for you guys yesterday because I knew you were getting the goats. They are so cute,makes me want goats all the more

[@LumnahAcres]

thanks

[@chadgehring3556]

You should make a spring latch for the outside gate like you did on the barn

[@eaglecamphomesteadswfl9006]

Happy Fathers Day AL

[@jamesnelson4452]

Happy Fathers day Al.

[@HoneyHollowHomestead]

I guess Blossom didn't read the manual where it said goats were not supposed to get IN the hay feeder. 😜

[@joeyoung3390]

Love Olivia’s laugh

[@jimclaire7996]

Nice video. Nice breed of goat. In a few years you will have a dozen. Be blessed. You can use the strings from the hay in the garden. Nice goats. I had Toggenburgs and LaManchas. I think I would get Nigerian Dwarfs too if I were to ever get another goat. You do not need gallons of milk, just milk for drinking, cooking and coffee. You know your fence is working. I wish they had those type of fence chargers back in my day. Do you have any alfalfa hay available to you? I used to feed all alfalfa and I got a lot of great milk. Your butterfat in the ND milk may be far higher than what I got years ago. A little vinegar in the water, 1/4 cup to five gallons of water, will increase the number of female offspring. Next year you will have three millers. Al, you and the family are so blessed. Soon they will settle into a great routine.

[@solamano7239]

A great new addition!

[@ellawilson4487]

BOY! Lol 😝 I jumped when the pig hit that electric fence 🤪

[@domzjb5053]

I absolutely fell in love with this channel

[@kimberlycianciolo3729]

I wanted to Thank you so very much for this. My goats are coming the end of the month!

[@renmcnamara6743]

It’d be cool to build a jungle Gym with some of the logs or stumps left behind. Congrats on your new lil herd!!

[@LumnahAcres]

Thanks, yea we need to build some kind of goat playground now

[@jeanniegriffin1692]

I woke early this AM (03:02) to view the New Additions to the LAF- and it was worth it- as I have viewed it intermittently throughout the day, this is my forth time! 💞🌻💞💞excellence.

[@LumnahAcres]

Thanks, You woke up before me! Lol

[@jessies3236]

So fun thank you for sharing!

[@curban616]

They are so cute!! I love the babies..hoping and jumpin!!

[@ka6148]

Quite a lovely homestead

[@gabriellakadar]

Those goats look in perfect shape and health. Nice to see how people friendly they are and not skittish at all. I guess the breeder has given you the information as to how they were fed. Besides hay, what else do you feed the goats? Are you supposed to be giving them minerals as well? They sure complained a lot when they were locked into the goat barn.....

[@LumnahAcres]

We have been feeding them hay, alfalfa pellets and grain. We are feeding them the same way the breeder did. We also have free choice minerals and baking soda out for them

[@evalinawarne1337]

ANOTHER WONDERFUL FAMILY TIME. I LOVE LOVE❗❗❗ TILL WE MEET AGAIN. MORNING

[@BraxxJuventa]

They are looking great Lumnah's! Congratz on your new animals!

[@eileenpalumbo6578]

Congrats on your goats! Enjoy

[@southerntexashomestead5028]

Love, love, love your new goats! Can you tell us what type of goats they are. Their size is perfect. Also like your bee hive. I just got 2 like it on Friday. A fellow was getting out of bees due to failing health and advanced age. I am getting my chickens this week. I am following your designs for building things on my homestead. Thanks for all your great videos.

[@farmalarm5242]

Rock on steader

[@christyszkiewicz9565]

Heads up goaty parents 💕 a little apple cider vinegar in their drinking water :) we breed goats & its very helpful to them also diatomacious earth & baking soda, goat minerals & probiotics added to their morning scoop of grains :) also diatomacious earth the heck out their barn space when u clean it out weekly :) these are a few things we learned on our journey 💕

[@LumnahAcres]

Thanks, the only thing we havent gotten yet is probiotics. I need to add some ACV too

[@Hasy84]

Best of luck keeping them. 🐐❤

[@RootsandRefugeFarm]

Welcome to goat ownership! Can’t wait to watch all your adventures!

[@LumnahAcres]

Thanks! We are excited and looking forward to all of our new adventures!

[@hutchlinda9]

Beautiful goats. Hope they make you all very happy. How did the piggys do out and about?

[@davidglenn1]

Need some stumps for them to jump and play on!

[@randomroosterfarm]

a few goats are always a nice addition to any farm. :)

[@wjmsmith]

Great goats! enjoy!

[@OTGNewbie]

Great Video! How cute are those goats.... Hey just a thought, maybe you should have made the door to the goat Barn a "Dutch Door" insteat of a reg door. Just an after thought on my part.

[@bigricky63]

Should find a corner or spot not to close to the fence to make a stack of those boulders for the "capricious" animals to play on.

[@bigricky63]

Don't forget a salt block.

[@madampolo]

I think you need to put a cross brace on your gate as you did in the goat shed. The outside gate is much bigger and to me, it looks like it is racking.

[@johnaustin6649]

I have been waiting in anticipation since I woke up for this video. I bet very few chores got done on the homestead :-)

[@LumnahAcres]

just what had too! Lol

[@rennells]

Hey al she we feed our girls chaffhaye 2x a day. I call it breakfast and dinner. Lol. I mix in purina dairy goat grains, sunflower seeds, flax and a Cobb molasses mix along with conditioning herbs for coat and health but also a lactation blend.

[@LumnahAcres]

How much chaffhaye do you feed and do you feed it to them when you are milking the goat?

[@batpherlangkharkrang7976]
