This is the fifth video in my Animals on the Homestead Series.
ANIMALS ON THE HOMESTEAD VIDEO 5 – GOATS
A FEW THINGS TO CONSIDER
Goats can be a meat source.
Goats can also supply you with milk.
Some goats can escape out of many fences.
Some male goats can really stink.
Goats will eat a lot of undesirable plants like Poison Ivy and Briers.
Goats can be used to groom properties and they fertilize while they eat.
Goats can have issues with parasites.
Goats can be noisy.
IN CASE YOU MISSED THE PREVIOUS VIDEO IN THIS SERIES:
As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:
proof-of-goat
I'm a big fan of yours @papa-pepper I like the stuff you bring to steemit, always original and fun to read or watch.
I love goats milk, my wife not so much. I have never tried goat before as a meat but would if I was given the chance to.
when I was a lad we stayed on a farm for a month for a month through the kids holiday, there were goats on the farm and the lady farmer used to bring the milk from the goats and we drank it while eating toast. It brings back good memories.
I remember how boggy the fields were as we were in Wales at the time, my dad thought that it would be a good idea for 2 boys to live off the land and learn about it.
the lady whos farm it was kept me and my brother wrapped in cotton wool while we were there, i think the most we did was fetch the eggs from the chicken coop.

As and heard multiplied times throughout my life :
But it is that madness that makes things really special, it gets much more and more when we are lovers of animals and nature.
It is always good to study our beloved living beings animals, see their behaviors, their way of living, their way of acting in situations.
The truth of all is that they are excellent living beings that you have and take care of in your beautiful farm, I congratulate you for everything you achieve and transmit to your followers.
Again I bless you enormously and I would like to grow as much as you both within this platform, as a person and as a parent you are

We are getting ready for kidding season. I'm not sure anything is cuter than bouncing baby goats. Our goats are Nigerian Dwarfs, which are very dairy.
We love our goats, but they are probably the easiest breed to deal with.

Baby goats take their first steps within few minutes of birth. some goats can even climb steep mountains.G oats have four stomachs and they burp a lot . I hope you know about their burping. And one more fact, they are most loving and innocent beings

Despite being a stubborn animal, goat is one of those animals found in most Nigerian houses due to the easiness of nurturing. I hope your goats are not as stubborn as mine

Ewure is what we call goat in my local dialect due to their stubbornness. No matter how your punish them for misbehaving, they go back to do the same thing again. Funny goat.
It is one of the popular domestic animal which can easily be cared for without spending a lot. Most Nigeria homes rear goat extensively making them vulnerable to attacks either for infiltrating an unwelcome home, theft robbers or harsh weather conditions.

Baby goats (kids) are adorable and the females are pretty cool, but the adult males I'm not a huge fan of. We had goats years ago and the males always urinated on themselves and then tried to rub up on me, needless to say I wasn't a fan of their fragrance. :D Goats are definitely escape artists. We had one that we should have named Houdini because they could get out of anything and anywhere. Goats also love to dance on your vehicles once they are free, at least that's the experience we had. I do admit though that they were good for clearing pasture land, but we liked the pigs better for that. Hopefully our new piglets are good at it because we have more pasture land to clear this summer. :D Your eldest daughter has such a lovely smile in that first picture after the goat video and I love the look on your youngest daughters face in the picture after that, its priceless. :D Thanks for sharing. :D
God bless you and the pepper clan. :D Have an awesome day! :D

Such a little cutie, but, yes goats (and sheep) can be crazy. I like goat meat and goat milk, mostly for the cheeses and yoghurt. They are a good investment for the homestead...

I've heard the Nigerian Dwarf has the best tasting milk, but the larger breeds produce more milk, and are better for meat. It's really important to meet your goats and if possible, their parents before getting them. Behavioral problems are supposedly learned/inherited. I've also heard that there are some male goats that aren't as gross as others in terms of smell and habits. I've also seen that in dairy cows. Some seem to be always covered in poop because they like to lay down where they poop and what-not and some are very clean because they don't do that (this is comparing animals that have enough space to have these options).

So cute!! When I was visiting Jamaica I commented about how cute the goats were and the driver said they're living lawn mowers but you don't make them pets because you shouldn't eat your friends.... I thought it was an interesting thought
