Baby Goat - Assisting in a Goat Birth (Not Graphic - PG)

During the first freezing temperatures of the season, a first time mamma goat decided she would give birth to her baby. Normally, I will move my goat moms to the birthing room, keep an eye on them, and let them deliver naturally on their own. But this time, mamma needed some help. So I decided I would film and explain the process. (Don't worry I don't show any graphic labor video). I hope you enjoy and learn about another role farmers play on the farm when they own livestock. (Note: There are a few spots in the video where mamma gets a little loud laboring). Be sure to subscribe, share and like the video.

Farm Prep: Winterizing the Farm for the Goats, Sheep and Baby Goats

As winter approaches, winterizing the farm becomes the top priority list of chores. In order to keep our livestock safe and healthy through the winter, we need to make sure they have access to unfrozen water, plenty of hay, and good sturdy shelters to protect them from the wind, freezing rain and snow. Also, we have a lot of babies due and we need to make sure moms and babies have a warm dry place for babies to grow and acclimate to the weather. In this video, I will prepare the goat and sheep areas for winter. Please enjoy and be sure to subscribe, share and like. Thanks for watching!
