Farm living with goats...
Here is a series of videos I took from two days ago on the farm. Had 3 goats get out of their enclosure but thankfully they have no interest in wandering away... they stay right by home.
Most of them are fainting goats with the exception of one. I hope you enjoy the following presentation. Hit the right arrow to view the next short video. I’m new to owning goats… these was my goat adventure from yesterday. |

lucky, typically the goats will climb up on the tallest structure available, usually a car in my neighbors case

It's convenient that you can just run up and scare them and collect their cute little passed out bodies.

Goats pee on their face and smile at you.

Would goats do well on a side of a steep hill? I have a steep hill on my property that can't be mowed through conventional methods. I was thinking about doing an enclosure on it and maybe using my backhoe to create at least a small landing to build a shelter for them. Let them be my mower for the hill.

When I was a kid my dad brought home a goat named Mildred, so we'd know what it was like to have to milk a goat every day. That stupid asshole would either stomp into the bucket or shit in it almost every time. I hated milking a goat and I hated THAT goat.
I had a handful over the years on our farm. They'd break out and climb up on the deck and shit on it...or we'd have a visitor and look out and a billy had broken out and would be standing on top of someone's car. I used them to eat grass and weeds around my sheds, pond and an island on my pond. The dumbasses would wrap themselves in something and do a swan dive into the pond. I got the electric mesh fence and would move that around for them, and it never failed one would stick horns into the mesh and then gator roll into a goat taco that was getting shocked..... It didn't take long for the new to wear off of our goat project. |

I have been wanting some goats though so I was thinking this might be a good place for them. I also have a 17 acres cabin rental business that has a ton of trees and shrubs that I could take them to and let them go to town on.
