    @drqin402 Před 4 lety

    That's so cool. You were the first goat farmer I found on CZcams talking about a variety of things I would have never known otherwise. With that I've learned so much from you and now that I've seen this video it will help me create a diversified stronger pest and disease free breading stock once I'm ready to start a farm of my own. That's awesome you share all the knowledge you've learned as well as resources. Thank you so much.

    Amazing. Ok. It was great seeing Houston having a terrific time. But, I gotta admit I was grinning from ear to ear the entire video. Please thank Mr. Rick for us when you talk to him again for letting us visit him. Gosh, such knowledge he has about goats. $1,000. for a goat! I'd faint. Then again, that stud machine has earned his keep.

    Great video. I've been working and around purebreds since I was 9. So very 40 years. If you look at the pedigrees on goats there are referred as does and bucks light rabbits and deer. If you go to a dairy show and say Billy. Most will think your a city person not knowing to much. Just a word for thought. But j did really enjoy the video.

  • @clintjohnson7023
    @clintjohnson7023 Před 2 měsíci

    Really working to learn all I can on raising goats because I'm learning towards that direction. I have a 195 acers . And been thinking about a 60 - 80 goat operation. I'm in process of fencing for goats and in sections as I would be using the goats to help maintain the under brush in my tree forest. That's covered in poison oak, ivy, sumac, saw briar, and all kinds of weeds. Which should keep goats pretty fat. I also have hay meadow. Thinking I could raise the goats use them to help keep property clean and sell to meat market every year to pick up a little extra money I thought I wanted the boer got but they seen a bit high maintenance. So have been learning towards the Spanish got. But from all the research I've done seems like the kiko goat is the best bet. I'll continue my education on them I've been watching the market and going to sales. And reading and watching videos plus talking to several people I know that raise goats for the meat market. Real good friend of mine raises a boer/Spanish cross. He said that's the way to go. But I haven't decided yet. Of course his place is in the hill country of Texas which is a dryer environment whereas my farm is in east Texas with an average rainfall of "36 -"48 " inches of rain per year with a lot of plant growth my thinking is if the goats can eat it and help keep it cleaned that's less time of me bush hogging. So I can be doing other things

    What an awesome farm! We have thought about doing some goats and I appreciate you sharing all of your information on raising goats. I will have to check around and see if anyone near to us has Kiko's, because I live in North Carolina! But I think if I do get goats I will certainly look into Kiko's because of how good you say they are. The only goats that we have had thus far has been a little goat named NaNa. She was a miniature goat that we kept as a pet for four years until two old mean coyotes killed her one day in broad daylight at our barn. Unfortunately at that time we had no idea that we had coyotes in North Carolina. Now we know! Thanks again for all of your great information and I really love watching Houston on his adventures. He really loves his animals and especially his baby goats. Super Video!

  • @ubetchya78
    @ubetchya78 Před 6 lety +4

    Wow he's got one potent buck getting that many does serviced in 8 days with way over 200% results!
    How many years can/will he use the same billy since I'd assume each year he has to keep back a few doelings to replace aging and culled does?
    Houston is just too cute, he was having quite the conversation with the turkey. Good luck with the bottle baby!

    • @ArmsFamilyHomestead
      @ArmsFamilyHomestead  Před 6 lety +1

      I think they switch out bucks every two year.

    • @ubetchya78
      @ubetchya78 Před 6 lety +2

      So he's spending roughly $10 per service (60 does x 2 yrs=$1200 paid for billy), or $5 per kid - After he's done with the billy I'm sure it has more fertile years in him, maybe he'd be a good purchase for another Kiko breeder needing to replace their own billy...

    • @ArmsFamilyHomestead
      @ArmsFamilyHomestead  Před 6 lety +2

      You are correct. I'm sure they sell him and make back a large portion of what they spent.

    We have a 9 month old jenney thats been pretty rough with our sheep. She was 5 months old when we brought her to our farm. She was with both parents along with cattle when we picked her up. She was wild and never been handeled. She is gentel now towards us and pretty much like a dog now. She had been alone on our farm for a few months until we bought the sheep. We used woven wire to seperate the barn in half. She was on one side freely able to come and go. Sheep were fixed on the other in the barn. All seemed well the first few days she licked them through the fence.
    I turned the sheep out after 5 days she started stomping and chasing them. I since now have divided the paddock with 3 strands of electric fence right down the middle of the barn. So now she can see them out in the pasture, but wont attack them because of fear of the electric fence. She is now 9 months old. I noticed her bite my ram and a ewe through the woven wire in the barn this evening. I immediatley smacked her with my hat. What should i do? I need her to protect them and ti all be together. I heard coyotes tonight when i left them. Shes there only hope of survival. Would you recommed a shock collar for her aggression/training?
