I hope you find em. I expect to hear how the milk tastes!

It's DELICIOUS! You've never had it?!?

No! I didnt even know you could milk a goat until I joined SS!

I love goat milk...so much better than cow milk!

I forgot to mention Im gonna make the 8 by 6 coop a meat rabbit barn when my new babies are born. Then when they are old enough Im gonna combine them together.

sounds like a plan. I thought of tractoring mine at one point, but glad i didn't bother now.

I would like to BUT I had a terrible coccidia problem with the chooks so I can only imagine the cocci problems with buns.

Thanks for posting! I have 500 being shipped Monday. 250 for each tub. I got some mass producing worms. They double every three monthes, heat and cold resistant, 6 inches long.

This is basically my feed recipe Farm Flock Feeding Down Near the bottom

Except mine is more

2 Parts Corn
2 Parts BOSS
1 Part Oats

I got mine here Uncle Jim's Worm Farm and I got the Super Red Worms. I got two sets of 250 worms instead of the 500 set. That way they'd already be separated.

ETA: Nifty is letting me write an article on them for the SS Blog.

cool. I feed higher protein. Mine is more like
1 part corn
1 part BOSS
2 part grains/rations

but they get most of the good stuff just from the foraging.

We have what are called leaf worms or night crawlers. I should catch and raise some of those. They get HUGE!

You oughta catch some of them! Wait I messed up mine get 2 parts oats! Then food scraps, sprouts (when I have em). Plus foraging
