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?

Mikmaq Basket by Will Meuse

I have been waiting to do the perfect photo setup, and writing, to do this Post, because receiving this Basket was a true Honour. However, the Post is about a month over due, so sometimes done, is better than planned! No matter how well planned! So…

A month or so ago, we were visited by Will Meuse, his Mom, and daughter, Gracie!

Gracie has come to love her visits to Briden Farm. 

As a thank you for the Farm Visits, our friend Will Meuse gave us this beautiful Miꞌkmaq Basket! (Wela’lin) 

Very Much Appreciated
