Greatly appreciate how much goat knowledge you're willing to share in detail on your channel... Most other channels which have goats either don't have the knowledge maybe because they're still learning themselves or they just don't want to take the time to educate others like you do... The content that you put out on your channel is needed and appreciated...
Thank you for the great videos. I have had 5 Kiko does since December. They are now a year old and I just brought home a PB Kiko buck. I have been watching for the does to come in heat. It shouldn't be long now. Your videos are a great help for we "newbies"!
When I raised purebred hogs years ago I flushed the sows and it really helped them to stay healthy and the pig litter size and weaning weights. I'm doing this with my Kikos this year as well.
Great tip lab my wife children and I love your channel we also live on a farm in east tn raising horses goats and cattle and my little boy loves to watch your kids change nnel then go outside and do it with our goats he’s 4
Love the channel. I'm doing homework on raising goats, and I'm getting a lot of good information from you. When I do decide to give it a try, I won't be totally ignorant. Thanks and keep up the good work!
When you put in are buck it depends on your whether and what the temperature is when its time for the kid's are going to to be hitting the ground you don't what it to be to worm out and you don't what it to be super cold out I think the best temperatures round 32°F to 40° F its not to cold for the kid's and not to worm out for all of the parasite's
@@BoisDArcKikos We just recently purchased a small 6.5-acre farm in Lamar County about 3 months ago. Went from urban backyard gardening to now hobby farmers. this year we concentrated on our garden and turkeys and egg-laying chickens. next year it will be goats, sheep and maybe bees. might try some meat birds and more turkeys if these sell out fast this year. year 3-4 we are going to try and do pigs.
Thanks for the tips I live just outside of greenville, tx with 10 acres and I have been looking at getting kiko does for my kiko/cross buck. Would you say there is a decent profit with kikos? Thanks, Keep the videos coming!!!
For a video can you do one on your fence and what works best I am looking ok king at getting a heard start small but I dont want to be chasing them all over the county
I’ve got some property that’s been sitting dormant doing nothing for 15 years that’s about to get goats on it. I’m not going all in and spending a bunch of money just yet but I’m gonna get some lesser kikos for the time being because they’re FREE lol. I’m going thru some medical issues at the time so it’s gonna be a thing just to keep me kinda busy and a reason to get out of the house. I raise gamefowl but it don’t take me but maybe 20 mins to feed them and if I don’t wanna mess with em there’s always somebody around that’ll go out there and do it for me but the goats is gonna be my have to so I’m ready for em. I hurt bad but I need to be moving not staying still.
Bois D’ Arc Kiko Goats I’m coming off a stint where my busy was whatever was in front of me in my recliner. I couldn’t get out of that chair on my own, I couldn’t even feed myself so something I can work with my hands on is a blessing.
How long do you keep the buck in with the does? Are you one of the people that recommend keeping the buck with the does up until till kidding season so the bucks aren't alone for much of the year?
@@BoisDArcKikos Thankyou for the quick reply! How long would you say a 5 acre pasture lasts for your 45 head in this video and how many pastures are needed of that size to maintain them for a year? My wife and i are wanting to start a farm in the next few years and are trying to learn as much as we can now.
We rotate pastures 19-20 days to another pasture so it last that long then go to another pasture and let that one recover. We use at least 3 to 4 pastures like that.
@@BoisDArcKikos ok thanks ... I was looking at some Kiko goats from look out point ranch and in the heard sire specifications they was giving at 90 days in the neighborhood of 118 index value I was just curious what that might be

I’m also starting back into pheasant and quail too. I’m more interested in raising something I’m gonna eat more than anything
That’s good. I think we need something to always keep us busy. I know those goats will clean a place up. Thanks for watching

How long do you keep the buck in with the does? Are you one of the people that recommend keeping the buck with the does up until till kidding season so the bucks aren't alone for much of the year?
I leave my bucks for about 2.5 mon then I pull them & put them in a buck pasture
@@BoisDArcKikos oh okay. How many does can a buck handle
Megawatt has 45 in with him. I have heard of a buck covering 60
would it be ok to leave bucks in with does till a month or so before kidding due to limited pasture/grazing?
Yes we did that with BT. Pulled him when the kids started hitting the ground.
@@BoisDArcKikos thanks for the tips! how would KIKO goats do in the UPPER PENINSULA of MICH.?
Your welcome
They would do good there
@@BoisDArcKikos thank you
Where are the new does you bought
Oscar Cisneros Leal I made a video of them. A couple videos back.
Do you have any does available?
I’m filling orders now. I don’t know if I will have any available.
Where the new goats y’all got
Cody Ryan they are on another video I made about them.
How big are your pastures?
We have several 7 acre pastures but the biggest single pasture is 13acres

What does it mean to index a goat
I’m not sure
@@BoisDArcKikos ok thanks ... I was looking at some Kiko goats from look out point ranch and in the heard sire specifications they was giving at 90 days in the neighborhood of 118 index value I was just curious what that might be
I’m guessing it’s a scoring of how well he grew out after weaning.
