When it comes to Milking Goats

No Comments
Eve Producing Milk At Briden Farm

When it comes to Milking Goats, I really enjoy it! At least I do when the Doe is a willing participant! Our old Saanen Doe, Eve really enjoys being milked. Whereas Nanna, our Nigerian Dwarf Goat, has never been quite sure! We’ve had some over the years that just didn’t want to be touched!

I prefer milking by hand, while I know some others prefer machine. I am sort of thankful that I’ve never had over one or two goats to milk at the same time! I think if I had too many I might be tempted to turn to using a milking machine! Not sure though! 

Although I may find out, we currently have 4 Does, and they just had the visit of a Young Buck for a month and a half! So, come July, we potentially could have four freshen, that would mean probably having four goats to milk! It could also mean our having anywhere from 4 to 14 kids! Not likely to have over 5-8 kids though. 

I know I look forward to being back in milk though, we enjoy making cheese, yogurt, buttermilk and whey! The extra will go to our Berkshire Pigs, Larry, Curly, and Moe!

Curious, do you prefer milking by hand?

Eggs A Sure Sign Of Spring

Beautiful Easter Eggs

It’s this time of year, when the days begin to lengthen, and our Hens begin to lay more, and more, it’s a sure sign of Spring! It may not be here yet, in fact we’re having a small snow storm today, but it’s coming and it’s just around the corner! I can feel it in my bones! Or maybe it’s just the Cold!

Today we had 18 Eggs! Possibly our biggest days since starting the Farm! Last year, five or six of our hens got broody and hatched 🐣 about 30 Chicks 🐥 

Now, those Young Chicks have grown up and they’re starting to lay! We still have too many Easter Egger Roosters! Our Roosters are naturally hatched, well handled, and gentle! They also come from a good line of Flock Protectors! Maybe you can give a good home to a Rooster? 

The nice thing is, going out to the Coop and seeing the nest boxes full of eggs! Whether the eggs get eaten, or we make Pickled Eggs, or they get used, or Sold as Hatching Eggs, it’s always nice to have an abundance of Fresh Farm Eggs! 

Nothing says Spring like the beautiful sunshine that pours out of a fried egg! No matter how it’s cooked, it’s eggactly what the Season calls for! 

In fact, not only do we have lots of Fresh Hen eggs from our Chickens, We’ve also started getting Muscovy Duck Eggs! 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 

So, in the weeks to come, we should not only have lots of Eggs, but also have lots of Chicks and Muscovy Ducklings! 🐥 🐥 🐥 🐥 🐥 🐥  

So whether You’re looking to come embrace, the fun, at Briden Farm, and spend some time with our Chickens and Ducks, and Goats, and other Animals, or You’re looking for Hatching Eggs, or Chicks, or Ducklings, or whatever you’re looking for, hopefully we can help! Or help You find it!
