Walk with me to get goat weeds! ♥

in #walkwithme7 years ago

My family has milk goats! Their milk is delicious! ♥

One of the healthiest things for them to eat, (not to mention, FREE!), is weeds and branches!!

Last weekend, we went to our neighbor's property to cut weeds for our goats. Don't worry, they gave us permission!
Well, my mom and dad mostly did the cutting, I took pictures and played with my brother!

That's my dad, haha!

Some of the things they cut for the goats included oak branches, pine branches, and a few other weeds and trees that I don't know the names of.
Fun fact: pine branches are a natural dewormer for goats!!

We loaded up a whole pickup full and brought it back to the goats! They sure loved it!

Here are a few more pictures I took that day:

Thanks for walking with me! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did! ♥

Great pics! We have meat goats, but the LOVE tree leaves too! And they will eat that pine bark right off the tree!

Thanks! Goats are the best!♥♥

Fascinating! I want to have goats but am in need of putting up some fencing. I have made some delicious goat's milk cheese in the past and hope to make some from our own goats.......some day!

Take care @sneklady!

Good luck! I hope you get your goats! They are super fun. ♥

When I was a child, we used to give our Christmas tree to the goats to eat after we were done with it. We had to make sure we got all the ornaments and tinsel off it first, of course!

We also do this! They love munching up the tree. :D

Lovely photos! Next time feel free to join in on the trimming!
