RE: THE FIRST MILK FROM OUR GOAT

in #homesteading7 years ago

Awesome! Are you planning on milking her for your family?
If so, you can start separating her baby from her at night at about 3 weeks, milking in the morning, and then putting him back with her for the day. It is amazing, but the mother can actually hold back milk for him. You can feel it, there is definitely still milk in there, but you can't get it out unless she allows it.
Beautiful baby!

Yup, that's the plan, but thanks for the advice nonetheless. (If it wasn't the plan, then it would be now.)

Haha cool! (Sorry, I get excited sometimes and spew unrequested advice...)
Best of luck, and looking forward to seeing how the goatie project comes along! ♥

You keep spewing! Often, I need it!

Haha, you got it, man! ;)
