I've had pet goats of a lot of breeds over the years. Pygmy, Nigeria, Fainter, Nubian, Toggenburgs and LaMachas I loved them all but I liked my Nubbies the best. I love their personalities and those floppy ears. I haven't had goats in several years now but I think I'll be getting them again either later this year or next. They are really good at keeping brush and sapling trees out of the pastures.

How many times a day do you milk them? Does it depend on the goats ?

[@ecobluefarms223]

I’m NEW and learning about goats and I am wanting milk and underbrush eaters are Nigerian Dwarfs a good pick ?

[@cjfunnyfarm]

They will eat the underbrush, but they are small and it would take a lot of them to make a big impact. If you want milk you also have to watch what they eat or it will make the milk taste funny. I don't know a lot of people who use the goats for dual purpose because of that. They aren't going to clear like a meat goat or full size goat would, but I think they would still eat the under brush well!

[@Teresapardo-x8c]

This has been very helpful. Do Nigerian goats need to be milked? I’m considering buying one as a pet? Do they survive ok alone?

[@missmamtube]

Shalom! Thank you so very much. I sure have learned a lot from watching and gleaming from your channel. Our family just purchased a small farm and now we know the difference between the pygmy meat goats and the Nigerian milk goats. We want to raise both Pygmy and Nigerian for sustainable living and pets. What kind of milking machine do you use at your farm? Thank you and Blessings to you and yours!

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Dansha farms is the company we buy or milker from!

[@frenchysandi]

Just a question? Why do you feed the cattle and male goats on the ground? Having grown up on a dairy farm I haven’t seen that done.

[@cjfunnyfarm]

It's mostly because trying to find a feeder cows won't break and goats won't jump in is difficult. We feed range cubes which are designed to be fed on the ground. Right now we are feeding that calf sweet feed to get him used to eating grain. If we were just feeding goats they would be fed loose grain in a feeder off the ground. The cows could be fed in a trough. But the goats will jump in a trough and sleep in it. It gets full of poop and moved around. It's just easier to do it this way when I'm trying to feed different animals together!

[@billsmith1782]

Awesome video, I am in the process of building our place in the Philippines where my wife is from. We want to have chickens and a few goats which will serve a dual purpose, mainly weed /grass control and pets, we have seen and are very interested in trying some of the smaller breeds, are they good for weed control?

[@sofiabent9129]

I've never owned a Pygmy goat before but I have owned Nigerian Dwarf goats and didn't like them that much. They are pretty with cool markings but that's not enough reason to keep them. They were either very shy, very noisy or aggressive/grouchy. The last ND I had was not what I would call a good mom. She was very distant with everything. Distant with people even though we were kind and gentle and she knew we brought her yummy food and that still didn't matter to her. She was distant around other goats, even distant with her own kids. Just a strange antisocial goat.

[@fredgrunder6348]

Size matters, I like the little, small ones for a pet. You said pygmies were between 16 & 20 inches tall Are there any smaller than that? I would like one around 10 to15 lbs. and 16 to 18 inches tall. Love the channel. Funny as hell.

[@kimberlyllamas5804]

I'm new to goats. When you talk about Dairy goats....they dont just produce milk without being pregnant with kids do they?

[@cjfunnyfarm]

No. No mammal that I am aware of will produce milk without giving birth first!

[@TT-_-]

@@cjfunnyfarm At least Finnish Landrace goats can produce milk without ever being pregnant or giving birth. They are called "virgin milkers", not every goat does it but it's totally normal within the breed. Usually they start producing in the spring when their diet changes to "stronger" feed, from dry hay to fresh grass. Milk amount varies, but the same goat WILL produce more milk after giving birth versus as a "virgin". I know a good virgin milker goat who produced ~1,5 liters per day, from spring to midwinter, and would have milked longer if she had not been dried out (her virgin buddy dried out in a week, this girl took like a month to dry😂) Finnish landrace goat is an awesome breed, I hope to have a few when I get my own little plot of land 😊 Nigerian dwarfs and also your Nubian have such cute coat patterns, but the breeds aren't available in Finland😆

[@mollierolin5389]

In my area it’s a lack of knowledge between the two and if it’s not registered safe to assume it’s mixed. I have 4 practice goats I wanted to get before getting into completely registered expensive goats. 3 of them have blue eyes which I know they must be part Nigerian to get that and 2 are also polled. One looks very Pygmy body type but one was mixed alpine and the other two claimed full Nigerian so we will see how they develop as adults 🤷‍♀️

[@mikes3827]

I'm buying a "gentleman's farm" (about 2 acres total) in the Cape Ann area of MA, and there is a two-stall mini barn that would be ideal for some Nigerian goats, with about 3/4 of an acre for the goats to roam and play. DEFINITELY going for a Nigerian breeding pair, and I wanted to ask you about the milking machine. I'm not at all adverse to hand milking future Nigerians, but the goal is to have 4-5 females, and have the machine do the milking. How often would each goat have to be milked? Also, where Nigerians are from west Africa, how do they handle cold weather? I'm along the coast north of Boston, so winters can be cold, and need to know what steps I may need to take (e.g. retro insulation in the barn, heating system, etc.). Any ideas would be much appreciated.

[@cjfunnyfarm]

They actually handle cold better than heat. As long as they are out of the wind and rain in a barn they will be fine! Just out of the wet and wind. We use a Dansha Farms hand pump system. It's linked in all the descriptions of my videos. If you are going to milk several I'd recommend some kind of system. Especially to start because you have to build up the muscles in your hands for hand milking. You will still have to hand milk out the last bit of milk no system will get everything, but we've liked the Dansha system is economical compared to the bigger systems and they have one that will milk two goats at once. Goat's have to be milked every day once they don't have babies to nurse to keep up their milk. You can choose to milk once a day which is what we do or if you want more milk twice a day 12 hours apart.

What’s up with Paddy’s horns? At least I think that’s Paddy???? At the end of the video, it appears as though one of the horns is growing under the other, was it an injury or is it just a weird growth pattern?

[@cjfunnyfarm]

A little bit of both. The vet did not do a great job of disbudding her so her horns grew in weird directions. She got into a head butting contest with someone and bent one of them back closer to her head. We are keeping an eye on it to make sure it doesn't hurt her!

[@persimmonhillfarm9210]

Do you worry about your goats and cows picking up bugs from feeding them in the ground? I was always told they need to be fed off the ground...but I am no expert.

[@cjfunnyfarm]

Yes, it's a concern for sure. The range cubes are designed to be eaten off the ground so not as big of a concern as the sweet feed. Using the loose grain is only temporary until the calf will eat the cubes.

I want a micro homestead on my rooftop garden. Only I drink milk, make cheese and yogurt, not made butter yet.My wife is Chinese and she hates dairy, so more for me :) I am out in southern China, and getting raw milk is thus far impossible. I have no idea yet where I could source dwarfs here. There is plenty of room for say four goats to frolic but I would definitely have to purchase feed. How many do you feel I would need to produce around a gallon per day.? I could only dream of having the land you have, but being able to source my own milk would be fantastic. Sorry if these questions sound a little dumb, but you have to start somewhere I guess :) Oh almost forgot how are they around other animals? I am a small scale Basenji breeder so would have to stagger their exercise with the goats.

[@cjfunnyfarm]

I think if you need a gallon a day you might be better off with a full size breed. If you were able to find high quality genetics I would think a minimum of 3 Nigerians would get you about a gallon a day. They give about 2 -3 cups each per milking with some of the more outstanding girls giving a full quart per milking. My Nubian gave about 1/2 gallon per milking on her own as a first freshener. We use Nigerians because we don't need a ton of milk and they have the best butter fat.

Most people go with full size dairy breeds for pack goats. My suggestion if you want a small one is to go with either a smaller (but not mini) dairy breed like a toggenberg or find a "mini alpine" which is a nigerian dwarf/alpine mix. That said, people who breed for pack goats aim for long legs and tend to use big wethers.

Maybe Nubians because I want milk and meat. Or Nigerians and pygmies, which you taught me can be used for meat.

I think you'll be happy either way!! Thanks for watching!!

Great informative video, i am thinking to buy 2 pygmies one of each sex male will be castrated and keeping them with chickens, then possibly buying a male in future and breeding.

Sounds like a good plan!
