RE: The Unsuccessful Castration - A Wednesday Walk

in #homesteading5 years ago

great story and i totally know how you must have felt lmao
i used to hate castrating my male goats but after about a dozen i got used to it
man do they scream
have a great day and everytime i read one of your blogs i really miss the goats
they are like dogs in a lot of ways

Sort:  

Thank you! I've never had one scream. They really don't seem super bothered by it after the first couple of hours. They always scream when they get disbudded though. I don't think I'll do a post about that. People will stop liking me! Goats are a lot like dogs. Smarter in a lot of cases!

you have never had a goat scream when you put that elastic band over there testicles????
i have not had one that did not scream lol
and yes goats are smarter than dogs in some issues and dogs are smarter in others but both are surprisingly a lot a like as in some dogs and some goats are too smart to be coaxed by food to do what you want them to do but they are usually the smarter ones lol
cheers
