Be careful when u worm. Out on open pasture they put those worm eggs back onto ground let them shed out for 3-7 days then rotate your pasture.

Hi Josh, I love all of your videos. I just watched your video about Tiny and loved every minute. I'm staying a subscriber of yours and Audra. I have grown to love all my friends at Walkers, Cog Hill, Grandpa Adler, Adler Farms, K & S and so many others. You are now my family, actually you became my family from the first video I saw. I'm keeping you and your family in my prayers. Grandma Gail

Thank you Gail we really appreciate the kind words an d we are glad you are apart of our KZbin family.

[@inglis7086]

as a New Zealander we would clean up by drenching the goats with worms then we would wait the rest time for the product we used then those goats with worms would be harvested and their offspring would be harvested that is how the Kiko got the worm tolerance we breed it out by culling those that worms was a weakness - Nelson New Zealand is a lush growing region with a good rainfall

[@BoisDArcKikos]

Christa Inglis I agree those that have continued worm problems need to go Thanks for watching

[@inglis7086]

@@BoisDArcKikos yes but harvested for meat not back into the breeding pool otherwise if you all do that the USA is going to have problems with their Kiko in 10 years from now and really need to start again - send it to the slaughter house and get a freezer at home and sell it as a side business then you can do you excess males at 9 months as well as part of that business

Exactly the same reason, to clear underbrush, is why I started my small herd of kikos last summer. Out of the 5 does I bought, 3 were bred. Now I have 2 sets of twins and waiting for the 3rd doe to kid. I'm a Master Gardener and have been asked to write a short article about using goats to clear areas for the local Ag agent.

Michael Harris thank you

[@tammycoyne1724]

Mini cows like mini Hereford, Lowline Angus, mini jersey or Dexter are easier to raise than full size cows and work well with the goats. Nice thing about the mini cows is you don't have to share the meat as you only get 300 to 600 pounds total dressed meat depending on how big your mini is. The goats and minis compliment each other in the freezer too as room for both

[@BoisDArcKikos]

Tammy Coyne yes I agree!!! Thanks for watching

[@lindacole1653]

I agree with all your reasons to raise goats. To me they are much easier to manage over cattle. The older we get, the more we need to scale down on not only animal #’s but also size of animal. I have yet to be hurt by a goat, can’t say that about a cow. 🤗

[@BoisDArcKikos]

Linda Cole true Thanks for watching

[@MoneypitHomestead]

Great to see this video! I was wondering if something had happened. We used our goats to clean up our woods but we had Boar goats and a few milk breeds and I would not tell anyone to ever get those. I do like all of the reasons that you have and want goats.

Carl Boehm I sale them for 250 On some of these goats they are having a bad runny stool that’s not clearing up & some bloat looking bellies.

[@kinflorida579]

I've heard that Damascus earth in there food, stops worms from developing

[@bonniewooters6796]

🤔🤔. Been wondering how things were with you. I had raised Finish goats cus Kikos were real new. We had a year of rain and floods and had to begin a worming procedure cus of it. Especially the stomach worms. Nasty thing. So worth it cus goats made land better and cleaner. And milk was the best. You said it all ......just an easy animal to care for. Great looking pasture and glad ya caught the bad so soon. So glad you doing good and as always another terrific video. Did your uncle have it as well? Always sad day when ya thin out the herd but love the ones ya keeping. First time I ate goat it was slowly roasted.....so good. Be safe and take good care 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
