  • I get the chance to leave the row crop fields and head to a goat farm. My friend Marshall takes me around on his familys Goat (among other animals) farm for a day.
    I learn about daily chores, the process of raising goats and how to work them.

    Thanks Marshall for showing your livestock, I’m thinking a livestock farmer is busier than a grain farmer most of the time. 24/7/365 animals have to eat and drink. Thanks for showing your operation

    The sounds of the goats bring back memory’s for me. My daughter couldn’t drink cows milk cause she would break out in hives. We found she could have goats milk so for 6 years we hand milked 10 goats twice a day just so she could drink milk. Both my girls were raised on goat milk! Thanks for a great video!!
