I'm very glad that someone finally added goats to their homestead. Now you have to get a big bell for its neck for the leader of the pack..

Let the never ending fence building and repairs begin!!! 😂

Things I learnt having goats. Never get between a goat and its feed. 2. Respect its standing in the mod. 3. they are good at cleaning up paddocks. best of luck with your goats they are loveable.

Your goats would love some fresh pine branches and the outside slabs from your saw mill

That last goat screaming with it's 👅 sticking out gave me a good chuckle. I can never not find it funny when they sound like they're human screaming

Goats 🐐 how fun for you guys. They definitely are entertaining 😊 Flat tire farm has goats & they are in Alaska also, love watching them goats ...lol

Thank you for sharing your springtime journey on the homestead! Step-by-step! God bless!

Level is horizontal, plumb is vertical, hi, just found Y’all, love it! Gonna binge all Your videos now!

What a fun video. Great new additions to your homestead. Thanks for sharing!

Great job building the fence for the goats

They are all really cute, it's crazy the other male gets put down instead of getting its own family.

Awe the baby goats are so cute🐐

Improvements every day. Good to see the goats! Food and milk for the table.

One of my favorite Alaskan Couples! 😁👍🏼 Goats are a good livestock animal to have .

Great video

Nice goats, ad i am convinced they will do well!

Thank you so much for sharing, adorable goats. I couldn't stop smiling the whole time. You've made my day. 😊😊😊😊

Watching the video reminded me of the years living up north with all the mud in the spring. I do not miss that! The pen looks great!

Once your pen is up plant some pasture grass and alfalfa!!!!

Yay another video! And those goats are so cute!

Them goats are to cute

Another great video

They are the cutest goats ❤️‍🔥

Great fun . Goats are such cute animals 🇨🇦

Love baby animals.. Hi from Colorado Springs 😀

CUTE! You will make them happy if you cut some pine branches off the bottom of your big pines (or any pines you want taken out) And throw in their outdoor run. Such a treat, and maybe help with mud season. You have your hands full.

Great video today, always like seeing additions to the homestead. The little kid was so cute. Thanks for sharing

One goat already found a escape spot, goats are very Smart.......building your pen you have to find big rocks for climbing up on. They like to climb..,

Man I love that monster rig on tracks you guys have awesome 👍😀

Милые козлята! Хорошая покупка! Отличный сарай! Классное видео получилось! Мне понравилось! Круто Круто!!!👍❤️

Love all your goats first of many animals Best Wishes from ENGLAND

I’m loving your work ethics and planning for future. Stay safe🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

Haha I LOVE goats! We have had goats for 20+ years and enjoy them so much. Their personalities are hilarious and they are very tasty as well 😊! Thanks for the video and glad your getting closer to spring. Can’t wait to see the house continue up!

Your goats are so cute

Use your doser there, use one of the forks to push in the post.

You are so blessed to have that skid steer. Could you imagine how hard it would be to do what you do without it . Because I watch several channels and nine out of 10 homesteaders do not have one ….. Tiny Houston MS ( Len Price )

Cute goats! That was interesting watching you prepare that old building and build that fence in the mud. Talk about mud season!

Make sure you build the fence like prison How I know I had 500 does plus 35 bucks plus lots of kids Put electric fence on the inside of mesh fence with 2*2 inch square or 2*4 inch fence Mark the electric fence with some ribbon do they learn not to cross the fence once they get jabbed Get the fence charger with maximum Jules of jab power ( 6 joules is minimum I will go with ) Put some swings using electric wire spools You got your hands full of kids but they do great landscaping job for you Enjoy them butting each other and yes train your dogs with them early on I was waiting for some time to see new videos of you and even checked if KZfaq unsubscribe me .

Great to see you guys doing great the goats 🐐 ate Grrst love the video I’ll be so glad when I get back to work in Alaska anyway we ish the best great work

Haven't see you for quite some time bat always enjoy your events

chuckles... as you are working on clearing for the pen to be built, I'm thinking that it's an area that only pigs could love. It's so muddy.

Wow, 2 adults playing with grown-up toys and playing in the mud, it's as good as jumping in puddles and spraying water in good fun. I'm just kidding 😂. Love the goats. My cousin has a dairy farm or was and runs goats as well, his idea of mowing the grass around the farmhouse. 😂. Good job, Kate and Chris.

Very cute! Nothing like mud season, makes everything harder

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Nice looking fence install. Feel for you guys working through a thaw.

I could only imagine the attention you would have given with the paint of all of the dogs on the side of the RV on your trip. Much better painted black. You guys done an absolutely wonderful job on the inside of the RV. How many miles were on the RV when you got it? You probably said but I might of missed that.

We raised goats for many years. We ran about 65 head on 80 acres of mostly woods. They are a lot of fun but also a lot of trouble. I miss having them around 😢.

Hi I’m new to your channel just happen to find it in my line up and thought I’d take a listen. I love AK and live watching five other Alaska channels who are new to AK and building a home, I find this fascinating to watch y’all build , do canning ,prepping all off grid and from different parts of the US. If I were younger I would too! God bless y’all on your journey to your new and exciting life! I’ll be watching!😊

Your nail gun sounds like a old school camera 📷

Oh My Goodness what a surprise❗ The Baby that keeps neigh-neigh is so cute....I hope all works out with them. I have heard they can be 'a handful (to say it mildly) Probably keep you hoppin'‼

grew up on a game farm with big animals, ostrich, emu, lamas, deer, lion, never put the fence on the outside no matter what

Groovy video😎 Goats are so fun to watch🐐😍 Springtime! How are your seedlings? Can hardly wait for upcoming videos! You two are doing great💖

🥰🥰🥰

Get goats they said, it’ll be fun😂. Goats are KZfaq gold. We have 19, Alpines and Boers. Looking forward to the next installment

Cool goats! Don’t touch the beard!😂😂

Thank you very much for posting video me and my wife Christine we were worried about you both please take of each other stay warm

Congratulations on expanding your homestead and giving Katie some more animals to spoil,. Very glad to see you have posted this video. I think you guys did an excellent job ensuring the Goat's have a good place to be, although I do worry about predators entering the shelter through that "Goat Hole" but I am confident you will rectify that in short order.

Guardian dog for the goats

umm the water spring needs more air time it looked so refreshing !!! the goats are fantastic i never knew they eat tree bark like that my god. also thank you so much for the video always enjoy them

Great repurpose of the shed. May want to look into wedge-loc for the t-post corners… if you’re interested. Living Traditions did an episode on them. Title of that episode is “EASIEST Corner Post Solution for Farm Animal Fencing! Wedge-Loc Makes It Possible.”

You could watch Lumnah Acres he just built fences and corner posts out of the same post you guys used. The goats are adorable.

You guys will eventually need to put larger gravel or concrete down to prevent it from getting muddy like that each spring.

setup a poll for when everyone thinks the goats will kick over the bucket (not kick the bucket).

A closing door for predators and cold weather.

First! LETS GOOOOOOOO 😂

Put logs outside the fence and staple them on inside

There are several Utub people that use electric fences. Then you can change them every week and give them new grazing. They will also tell you how too train them to the fence. It’s easy prey.

Hey hey, good to see you back! Any plans for drainage under your roads or is it not even worth bothering with the perma-frost? Wondering if a few well placed French drains could move the needle on reducing the mud haha

Billy needs be in his own pin..

👍

How much land did you buy ? I must of missed it , if you did say . My dream was to build a aframe. I don’t have the support to build one . There’s another couple I been watch that started me thinking of the quest. Look them up wild wonderful.

Since you guys are in Alaska it may pay you to Lock the goats up at night. Because I know y’all have bear and possibly mountain lion and they will scale that fence and take a goat back over the fence. A friend of mine lives Mid Eastern USA and his goats started disappearing at Night and After the 2nd one disappeared he installed infrared night vision cameras watching his pasture. This was before cell phone 📱 camera to alert his phone in real time. But The 3rd Goat about 50 lbs was seen on his camera being gotten around the neck & choked out & carried back over a 6 foot high fence by a full grown Mt lion. After viewing the footage He went into the woods the next morning right where the cat had carried the goat he followed the drag marks in the leaves and found the goat covered up with leaves and missing one hind leg quarter. So the cat intended on coming back for the rest of its spoils. He started locking up his goats in the barn at night until he got him a couple of Donkeys to put in the pasture as Guardians of his goats. No more goats got gone once the donkeys was added to his pasture. You guys could add electric fence on outside to deter any predator from scaling your fence like you done to keep moose out of your garden. 😁👍🏼

Build them some things to climb up on and things to play with

Feeder and water

You gotta put it in a trough you know like what they used to feed cows so it’s not in a bowl put it in a long troth you can make it out of wood. You don’t have to buy it. You can make your own can spread it out. they can all eat, not try to eat out of a singular bowl.

Are the kid goats heavy enough that a Bald Eagle could not swoop in while they are out in the pen and fly away one of them? Have you started framing your cabin?

Always put your fence on the inside cattle horses goats even hogs will stay in better

I’ve raised goats for the better part of 25 years I’ll give ya a hint, yours may be different than mine but goats 🐐 will be goats . But all the ones I’ve raised was highly Contrary about not wanting to eat the Hay that laid on the ground. They’d eat all on top and leave the Hay on the ground for waste. So I had to build them a V shaped feeder on legs to put the Hay in the top of that they could eat through the side slats but that they still couldn’t climb up on. Even then they pulled hay out the Hay that fell to the ground from the Hay feeder as they pulled it out they wouldn’t eat what hit the ground. But it was a lot less wasted Hay in the V Hay feeder than me putting it on the ground and I also built a wooden grain trough to mount to the barn stall wall and designed it so they couldn’t climb on it & high enough off the floor they couldn’t poop in it. Because when I first installed the Grain Trough I had to raise it Above butthole level or the tallest goats would always back up to it and drop me loads of 💩All in it to have to clean out 😂. So the screws came out and I raised it higher than butt level. 😂 Also I had to make it narrow enough with like a roof and sides on it so the little ones couldn’t jump up in it. I designed it all about 5 feet long so all could eat at same time. I built it outta 1”x8” untreated wood with like the top shelf of a book case with 45° Angled down Top over it so the kids didn’t have enough room to jump in it and walk around. And if one some how jumped up on top they’d slide off because the top was angled 😆. Because if a goat can jump in, on, or climb on something they most certainly will. I know you’re just getting started and not got established yet and all that is yet to come. But i thought I’d give ya some ideas. One last thing In your small barn if it was me I’d build a Hay feeder wide at top to put Hay in and 45° it back to the wall with 2”x2” wood bars every 4-6 inches apart so they can stick their mouth in between the 2x2’s to get their Hay and it angled with a lid on it High enough off the ground they can’t jump up on top of it. Goat milk 🥛 & cheese 🧀 is really good and many things can be made with goat milk like soap and goat milk lotion 🧴. Also the Boer breed of goat the meat is delicious also if you ever decide to raise some for meat 🥩 that’s the best breed for meat production. Good luck 👍🏼 and have fun with your new editions to the homestead.

Just a guess a thought, but wouldn't it be a good idea to put light netting across the top. I don't know if an eagle might take a chance to snatch one.

Pallets out side in pin

A wee bit muddy. Cmon sun.

😎👍👍

I know goats will eat most brush but what are they good for? The milk and cheese I’ve tried is really bad. Takes a while to get the taste out of my mouth. That’s just me but there must be something I’m missing. What will you be doing with them? 🤔😊

Is there any chance seepage from yr outhouse could pollute the ground water of your goat pen? Ugly thought but something to think about.

Door for the goats where the hole in the wallis

Hook for water bucket

Learn hoof care please

Maybe 9 bails of hay 🤔 Soak up all that land

Mud season

💚🤍❤💯💯💯💚🤍❤

Be careful the bigger goats will lay on the smaller goats when it gets cold and crush them they're really bad about mothers crushing their babies when it's cold out cute goat store

They sound like there getting killed funny

I don't know or understand what it is about goats and home steamers. Very Strange
