  • Fun Farm Facts Friday – December 4th

    I can’t believe it’s December! We have almost reached the end of our Fun Farm Facts. Only 4 more facts before the series is over! I hope you feel like you have learned a lot over the year.

    The average milk production for a dairy goat is 1,500 pounds per year in the goat’s prime! This can vary widely based on the individual goats and breed. Small breed goats like Nigerian Dwarfs give signification less, while some of the standard breed goats, like Toggenburgs, give more. On average Nubians gives over a gallon day. Our girls have always been exceptional milkers!

  • Fun Farm Facts Friday – November 27th

    Today’s farm fact is about goat udders!

    Goats have two teats (nipples). However, occasionally a goat will be born with an additional teat! Goat udders consist of two separate halves, each with their own mammary gland. When milking each side must be milked all the way out.

  • Fun Farm Facts Friday – November 20th

    Did you know that chickens are not completely flightless? Chickens will fly short distances, usually in order to get over a fence or into a tree. In the picture the chicken doesn’t want to touch the snow, so she flew out of Kevin’s hands into the coop.

  • Fun Farm Facts Friday – November 13th

    We have another chicken/egg fact today!

    Eggs

    When collecting eggs for the day it is very easy to tell which eggs were laid most recently because a freshly laid egg is 105 fahrenheit! That’s one hot egg!
