Most helpful video for milking I’ve seen. Thank you.

I love that she sits on your hand but never stops eating.

Having the radio/music on is also good to help all sudden bangs and swishes blend in. The farmer at the dairy I work at refers to the speakers at the stanchion as the cows' radio; elsewhere in the barn he listens to the radio from protective headphones (I just hum random snippets 'beamed into' my head, no need for outside music😂😅). At a layer chicken farm I did work experience, the farmer said he noticed a big difference in how the chickens reacted to humans after adding a radio. When the chickens had the radio on very quietly at night and louder by day, they were much calmer when humans -even strangers- walked among them. Before the radio the chickens were flightier; speaking calmly wasn't very calming to them, and strangers were scary. They regularly saw only 2 different humans, so listening to dozens of human voices and musical instruments in the radio made them much more prepared to deal with all kinds of folks and noises, such as feed- and other delivery people, backing trucks, farm sitters, maintenance, vets, fireworks...

Aren't goats funny. We had several squatters / kickers last year. But they got use to it. Oh we got a Hoofboss. Love it!

Oh nice I love that thing for making hooves extra pretty! They get so flat and even 🤩

I watched several videos on first time fresheners, this was the most helpful, concise video I found! Thanks!

This is a very good example of how to get them started! I do the same. I feel that the younger you can start them with being comfortable with being touched/groomed/worked with the better. calm music is a good add-in. Dottie's Udder is looking to be great!

Back in very early 70 we used dawn dish soap to wash up and rinse with warm water

Maybe you should have Fawn and Dottie watch and learn from Mavis and Gertie how milking is done! Always something to learn about goat homesteading from the Johnson family farmstead!

Beautiful goats. 🥰 I just heard that peppermint can dry them up. I'm not sure if it's true.

Had a strap and hoist to hold them up until they stand up all the time

I have 2 sitters. I am about 6 wks from kidding. One of them is able to completely kneel down and put her bum down. She stops eating and just sits there. The other squats in the back and jumps and kicks in the back. Hopefully I have enough time to correct this. Any tips?

It’s so frustrating but we will lift one leg and hold it up if we have to 😁
