Did our HARD WORK pay off? 🤩 (milking star awards for our little backyard goats)
After a year of testing the DAY has arrived! Let's see who gets the top spot in our herd of miniature milking goats! 🥰
Each morning on our one acre farm in the city of Phoenix, Arizona, we start the day with milking goats, feeding pigs, and gathering eggs. We have a small plot of land, but boy, do we make the most of it. Each animal on our farm is taken care of holistically & organically. We let the mama goats raise their babies until they reach 10 weeks of age and are naturally weaned from nursing. We keep a small herd of 5-7 milking goats, mainly the Nigerian Dwarf breed, although we still have the queen of the herd, Luna, our Nubian goat. We use the fresh goat's milk to make cheese, butter, cream, and we use it in all sorts of baking & cooking. We love that we can walk into our backyard and gather food. It's the best feeling ever!
After the morning chores, we usually tend to the pond -- we're always adding new pond plants and fish to maintain the delicate ecosystem of our natural swimming pool. Our backyard farm is full of adventures, and we're so happy to share our farm vlog with you. Hopefully you can feel inspired to grow something of your own, or care for an animal with kindness like we strive to do. Thanks for watching!

If your cats get hair balls, feed them The pumpkin.
I’m lovin these 20 minute videos!
Come on ladies!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I like it when the videos are shorter. I don’t always have time to watch for 20 minutes or more.
pumpkin is good for cats so you can feed that to the cats because it will help them
Luna will scratch you luna hell nah
I’m crying because how funny this is😂🤣😆
Y’know when everyone says ‘I’m your biggest fan’? Technically we are all their biggest fans since most of us love this family and their animals :)
Corn is best planted during rainy seasons..
I AM THINKING That The DOG YOU. MAYBE GET ING MIGHT BE GETTING COULD BE A GIANT SCHNAUZER THEY DoNT. SHED ARE INTELLIGENT. ARE LARGE and STRONG Enough To Do GUARDING OF LAMBS SHEEP COWS GOATSKIDS CAN GET A FEMALE 55. TO 75 A MALE. FROM 60. TO. 110. POUNDS
Since some of the goats are picky, but seem to love the leaves from that tree, could you blend some leaves up into a paste?
70 and wear n warm clothes🤣🤣 we don't break those out til it hits 40 or 30
I am sorry.
Awe 😭 you didn’t have to go outside so late for us🤧🤧 17:42* great shot 📷
no wonder are goats ate all of our halloween pumkins
Congratulations mum I followe u daily
I had a eye on hope at lumen acre she did her dance today she so adorable
I meantLUMNAH ACRES A GREAT SITE
We raise NDG in South Mississippi. Just curious what are you feeding your herd? I have heard alot of different opinions on grains and rich hays. Hope all are well 🙂
When didd they tell us fern's babbies name's? And what are they!!
We grow corn it turned out really good but we didn't know when to pick them so when we picked them they were over ripe.
You need bee for corn do you need to be paralyzed a lot they grow really good with lots of water
Congratulation mam... your effort already paid off.
Hello! How do we private message you? I am a Phoenix resident ready to start the path to goats and have many questions!
Why dose no one like my comments am I the only one
Will y’all ever move to a bigger farm? I think it’s cool that your farm is in your backyard though.
It’s like 34 degrees where I am.
Try creamed corn and watermelon
omg, you'll have to cook for me one day, 'cause that looks SO GOOD
If you keep one, I wouldn't keep Fiona. I would keep the smaller one.
Mine like banana peels, creamed corn, salad greens blended up in the blender....
I know it’s a golden retriever! I looked up a dogs way home witch is a really good family movie and i think it’s a golden retriever!!!
But its not a Guard dog
Cold for you is 70°?!?! For us it -1,2, and more!
We're in SoCal and get some pretty brutal sun, but my corn (Green dent) has thrived with LESS water. Corn planted in places that would get water once a day failed to thrive. The corn in places without any water or small volumes of water that I would hand carry were tall, had plenty of ears an as long as I helped them pollenate had plentiful kernels. If you try corn again, plant it somewhere super dry!
I love willow!! I loved her since she was born!!
I love your videos!
You could strain the wet stuff so it's not as runny. What about putting the wet food on something flat, with no sides? Or maybe when you mix the minerals in the wet it will make it not so wet. Mix the minerals and stuff in and bake them into "treats." Then you could make different sizes. For instance mix what you need Winnie to have in the pumpkin and bake in all one shape or size for her, that way you know each goat got the stuff they need.
I am second
Maybe you could try planting a couple of corn plants every two weeks for a year, working your way along a garden bed, then after a year you'll know when to plant them to get the most growth. The next year you can plant them all at that time of the year and hopefully get the best harvest possible?
It might not have been the treats some of the goats might not have liked the bowls.
Taste-testing was fun!! With puppies, we tend to allow 2 or 3 to taste at the same time; it's manageable. Putting the bowls down on the ground, with some pups, works better; it's less 'confrontational', even tho we don't see it that way... Maybe the goats would agree? LOL
Wait is Zoro named after the Zoro from one piece?
Arizona went blue 🙏🏽
I love your vedeos
You need to hill up your corn. It will put out more roots, making it sturdier, and give it more nutrition. Try again -- corn is tricky.
It sounded like your pig would like to clean out those bowls of pumpkin, banana, and applesauce! Great video. Love the goats, especially the adorable babies.
Folin has a ❤ on her back
Hi I really love you channel but it’s getting kinda boring
Do you drink the milk or sell it? Or do you just feed it to the babies.
Tilly’s here for this buffet 🤣
Me over here thinking about how penny can’t have no more babies😭😭😭 thinking about if she had one it would possible be name paisly
I'm watching Twilight now
I feel like she smokes weed but idk..
Leave dose poor goat's alone
Have you looked up or heard about companion gardening? I think your corn is not getting enough nitrogen. If you plant beans with your corn, the beans will supply the corn with the nitrogen they need.
There was an add for milk on this video
Long sleeves lol You should see Chicagoland in the low 60’s in shorts and tank tops! I want a baby goat!!!!!
Pumpkin is excellent to give cats! It helps with fur balls...
Little baby goats from the past..... Already big goats..... Memories....
Love your vidoes so much thank you for using your time to make these wonderful videos 😊
You could try getting the goats used to the pumpkin or whatever by maybe adding in a spoonful to their dry food as you milk them, and maybe a few added to the bottom of the outside hay feeder for the mommas and the babies and then in a dish with dry food for the bucks that maybe you use once a week or something like that specifically for adding the source.
Your videos are superb i love it.
How long do baby goats nurse from their mothers?
Willow and Zorro will make such beautiful and nice kids! If you keep a doe of their babies (if you breed them) they will be off the charts!!!!
Ahh, so you wanted braging rights.
Luna is a toddler🤣
You can try to grow 4-5 rows=25+plants, with a tightly planted corn patch so the crop can pollinate....
They are chill just like Fern and very good eaters so sweet. Congrats. on the milking stars
loved the food test! you should do that again but with different foods :) maybe like most popular treat!
Corn needs 3/5 rows deep and 20 feet rows otherwise it won't produce.
anyways LOVE YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH I LOVE YOU GUYS YOU GUYS MAKE MY DAY
OMG yes willow yay
AWWWW YOUR LITTLE NIECE AND NEPHEWS
You didn't show the cooking😭
Me:boarded on YT YT: Weed em and Reap..I guess we will put out the notification... Me: oh my goodness WEED EM AND REAP (I love your channel!!)
No canned pumpkin, humans ruin it.
So happy for your goats though.
17:32 Stella stomping her foot 😂
Ah dang it. I was hoping to see something about you're garden. lol
I never get any notifications anymore but I went looking and found this video and I am so glad! I am having a major life change right now and trying to adapt to my new normal. I appreciate the happy content!
Maybe this is a crazy suggestion, but you know how if you put breast milk on a babies nose, it makes breast feeding easier? Well, what if when the were babies you exposed them to pumpkin and banana in a similar way? Maybe they’d be more interested layer in life. Idk though 😊
Please heart my comment. I am such a big fan. I have been watching you for a long time. Btw, i love the way you say "onion."
I’m so glad you guys uploaded today as I have been doing my mock GCSEs and have had two full days of exams which had been really stressful. This is a good way to relax. Thank you
Maybe the goats would like mashed peas instead?
New names for stella's kids that I really likee!!! - Spice - Strawberry - Solar - Sharkie - Shyla - Shelly Hope you like them!!!
You should have garnished the bowls with a leaf, maybe they would have been more interested in tasting the different options?😂
I love the testing of the soft food. Una was like no way. I love how the milk testing is going. Have a great week
Dos Fern stell kicks???
Are you guys going to keep the baby goat.
Willow !
Treats are something that take some getting used to. How about raisins or fruit leather? Not wet, they can try them without having them pushed in their faces, and if they decide they like them you can take it from there.
in my eyes Fern look small compared Willow and the other goats.
I love when Weed'em and Reap make 20 min videos
There’s no captions available for the video :/ I rely mainly on captions to better understand what is being said.
Love the longer video!! Y’all are always sweet and entertaining as is your herd of goats and flock of chickens! We have silkies d/t hatch in 2 weeks!,
Do you milk the goats all the time, even when they're pregnant?
I think Winston said,"I am protecting the girls from the bowl, and I don't like anything but girls!"
The chicken like it😉
We love your videos, it's funny how you add a G to Onion and subtract a G in words ending in ing, such as Milkin and Feedin
I have Boer goats
Are you going to sell a 2021 calendar?
What lab did you use for milk testing? I’d love a more detailed video on it!
You guys should make a tiktok for your goats and the farm
