ksalvagno's farm journal - Time for change

It's still fairly warm here - was 50 all day. Weird.

Did you sell your doe that milks nonstop yet? Millie (had to go back and look)

AAAAWWWWW.

Well, I finally got my milking machine going. I milked 3 girls last night, took a good hour to do it and my hands hurt so bad today I can't stand it. So tonight I milked 4 girls in 20 minutes and took 10 minutes to clean the machine. No pain for my hands and the FF that was giving me a hard time stood quietly and ate her food. Sure makes my life easier.

Ooooh flashy little ones

What kind of machine do you have?

 

[ksalvagno]

I bought the DP120 from Perry's Milkers. It has been saving my hands big time.

Lael Blue kidded today. Had a dystocia that needed vet assistance so ended up taking her to the vet. Luckily this turned out much better than when I had to take Antinette. Lael and 3 kids are doing fine. Last one for the year and I'm very happy.

Doe #1, 2.5 lbs, white frosted couclair, frosted ears & nose, blue eyes

Doe#2 - 3.2 lbs, gray roan with white on sides, frosted ears & nose, wattles, blue eyes

Buck #3 - 3.3 lbs, brown/black couclair, blue eyes
