The sweet white small goat. A lap goat! ❤

Good list! Another thing to consider about sheep. There are wool sheep and hair sheep. We raise the hair sheep. They have hair more like a goat. No shearing required. Other differences include hair sheep don't have lanolin...which produces the wool. Therefore they don't get that oily taste as they get older. They will graze like a wool sheep, but they will also browse like a goat eating almost anything including vines and briars and brush. They are great at clearing land. We love our sheep...Katahdins, St. Croix, and black bellies.

I only have a big lot in the suburbs, but I am looking for dual purpose chickens. They need to lay eggs, compost my garden and eat bugs. I don't have room for just meat chickens or egg chickens, my chickens need to do all that a chicken can do and yes, in the end they will end up in the crockpot! If I had more land, I think pigs and a couple of cows, one for milk, would be where I would go.

[@CattywampusAcres]

There are so many chicken breeds that would be great for you!

[@dimitardaskalov9111]

Also chickens are the easiest starter animal

[@CattywampusAcres]

Very true!

[@troy97523]

I raise both meat rabbits for the homestead and the cute lion head rabbits to sell as pets, and all the fertilizer is great for the garden

[@CattywampusAcres]

It is awesome!

Hey y'all, I really liked this video. Really good useful info for any level of experience someone may have with animals. You hit it on the beyond duality of purpose into the multiple purpose of some animals. The 3rd 4th and beyond. I think for some folks it is a recreation spending time with animals it can help with an empty nest syndrome as now something else needs you now. I have learned a lot about how there are folks taking the animals in specific order and running them through the garden area and by the end all the work is done and it is ready to plant. The idea of planting cover crops and then running chicken tractors over it feeding the chickens for free and working the soil and fertilizing for free those are wins all the way around. I do think the old adage of hard work is the way to go is not always right and working and farming smarter is much better. Great conversation video today. Y'all have a blessed day!

[@CattywampusAcres]

Thanks friend! Great hearing from you!

[@PerryHillFarms]

Thanks Jason.

[@CattywampusAcres]

Thanks yall!!

[@theunclepudge]

Would love a video showing which order I should get each animal in as I start and grow.

[@CattywampusAcres]

Sounds like a great idea for a series!

[@christianb1176]

I agree with chickens as #1. A prime reason (besides those of eggs and meat) is that they are relatively easy to get to reproduce.

[@CattywampusAcres]

So true!

[@chrismele5214]

Agree with chickens being #1 but might be a little biased because we love our chickens for their eggs

[@CattywampusAcres]

Nothing wrong with that!

[@sherreeroper7656]

Wait..that's a rabbit fur? Oh ok,several rabbits. I make beef jerky and I barter w it 🤪. Can I rent a 🐖pig? I truly need ground cleared of the brush and weeds..if I bought goats milk soap I'd buy Crystals soap.I've watched her make it,cut it and it smells wonderful..
I have chickens and 2cats. No rooster, I want infertility in my eggs. I just couldn't do the processing part.
