I get the chance to leave the row crop fields and head to a goat farm. My friend Marshall takes me around on his familys Goat (among other animals) farm for a day.
I learn about daily chores, the process of raising goats and how to work them.

Any day you learn something, that's a good day. God bless.
Ben , I think it’s awesome that you are visiting other farms and showing different types of agriculture . Thank for bringing us along !
thank you for asking all your questions and the informational video!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you Marshall 😀👍🏾🐑🐑🐑
Thanks Marshall for showing your livestock, I’m thinking a livestock farmer is busier than a grain farmer most of the time. 24/7/365 animals have to eat and drink. Thanks for showing your operation
I always find young animals are interesting and fun to watch. Thanks for visiting Marshall and thanks for Marshall showing you around.
Brought back some great memories my grandparents raised sheep for 50 plus years
We gotta go back. We forgot my souvenir baby goat.
Lambing season is just around the corner!
Got any good lambing jokes? Just kidding!😂😂😂
It should be " do you know any good goat jokes?" "Just kidding."
@@iowafarmhandanf2266 gosh you're such a kidder

Holly's Simple Life I’ll try and make it back!
Your new camera did great. I don't know what you use for a mike but it does a great job of picking Marshall up as well as you are always very clear when talking. Really enjoyed the video
Great video! I found this very interesting.
Good video. I'm glad Marshall had the patience to put up with you all day. Lol😂🐐
Cool video, and the picture quality is just fine. Goats are cool in my book.
Thank you 🙏🏾 I needed this
Cute goats!
Nice goats are fun I've had a few through the years.
Awesome video great footage and knowledge.
I really liked this video!
Thanks for the video... We are in the south... no snow... although it's beautiful I don't want to tend animals it it.... I remember when it snowed NINE INCHES in Louisiana....SIGH!!
Great content.
Good stuff ! Thanks for sharing Marshall. Time to pig farm Ben 👍
Jeff Benson I’m hoping to get to one when I can find someone to show me around!
Fun video, hard working young man.
Another awesome video find out things that I didn’t know and I even got goats 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Very cool, a cousin of mine grew quite a good business farming lambs in North Dakota a few years back, supplying local restaurants and schools etc.. ended up selling when she had to move back to New Zealand.
Kent Urry I’m interested in the Lambs as well. I hope to be apart of the lambing process.
Whata welcome !!
thank you for the information.wow wonderful and beautiful goats i hope i can buy that kind of goat someday on my farm❤ Happy Goat Farming everyone☺️
Great video Ben
The sounds of the goats bring back memory’s for me. My daughter couldn’t drink cows milk cause she would break out in hives. We found she could have goats milk so for 6 years we hand milked 10 goats twice a day just so she could drink milk. Both my girls were raised on goat milk! Thanks for a great video!!
The fence needs to hold water to hole a goat
Try almond or soy or rice milk. Most large grocery stores now carry such.
The goat pro 8. Awesome
Great work you
Nice presentation for learning
Great insight
Great video and info
Your video reminded me of how much I loathe snow and Ice and winter. I moved away from it nearly 50 years ago.
Goa-tition! yeah that works. you guys are goa-titions
Yo that Donkey is Legit
Jared Courtney I work for the railroad & thought that was a track foreman when I first saw it.
Great video, 26 minutes well spent. Animal farming looks like a lot of work though.
Vid quality was great
"If a fence can't hold water ... It won't hold a goat !"
Not sure how I landed on your channel but I really enjoyed watching this. Day in the life of a farmer... I call this a funny farm! Every animal you can think of. Looks like our home in Wisconsin, except we don't have sheep! All he needs is some pigs and he would be set.
Claiming pens
I will be posting more videos of Jewels & Ruby and newborn baby goat videos soon... Stay tuned....LOL
The sound quality its night and day better when you go from behind the camera to infront of it
It didn’t have a mic on it yet. I noticed that too!
Really nice heard
I wish to visit the place like that to get the hands on skills on how to be professional farmer and it is really very helpful. This is very useful learning
thanks guys I learned a lot
Our pleasure!
Hi, thank you guys so much for this video. A lot of good help for me who is just starting the Boer Goat business as of last year and first time kidding. Where do you find the tubing to feed the milk down on the kid when needing help? Also, what type of heat are you providing the sheep while indoors?
I like goat farm
Good luck....love from india Mumbai🇮🇳🇮🇳
Mentor is critical in Beekeeping.
Cool
Great video thanks for the info , I do have a few questions , with 10acews how many meat producing goats could you hold and what type of goats would those be ?
Much interested ❤
Thanks Marshall, thinking about starting a goat farm up in Canada. Would love to be able to pick your brain.
So beautiful
nice video
Weeds fisrt as the nutrition that becomes available is not only recognizable they like the weeds even more.
Great video! I'm just getting into goat meat processing. Got 2 billies and 4 does, 1 mo ago. Any suggestions for profitability? Is Marshall selling to breeders or selling for meat? They look like Boer, which is what I have. I bought my pure bred boer from guy in Marshall MN! Thanks again for the video
there is a massive shortage of goat meat in Asia so a good industry to get into
Find a mentor. Excellent. An old saying : Knowledge not shared is energy wasted.
You have a great stage presence however, your friend seemed bothered by your filming. The aerial shots added a unique perspective. Overall well done.
Hey bro If you ever think about going to Ireland, Let me know . Got family Farming over there love to have you hang with the. DAIRY FARM And beef farms.... Awesome video bro
Bluetunder40 that be awesome.
"I must be a goat whisperer" "MYYAAAAH"
19:20 the goat said stop
I always wanted a goat farm and raise kids.
On a side note we use lots of goat Products Soap shampoo etc .
I always love Guardian donkeys. Just started I could be wrong but that's what you showed in the first few seconds :-)
i love you
looks cold
