Yesss! You are amazing. I just found your channel. I've been watching homesteading videos for years. I love how to the point your videos are, and full of good info!
I've made cream of mushroom soup before because someone at Thanksgiving is allergic to MSG and it's hard to find a soup that doesn't have it in it. It's not hard at all to make! I like that you get together with others and teach how to process the animals.
So happy to see Sweet Clover, she's beautiful and I'm sure she will fit in wonderfully! The ham and potato casserole with cream of mushroom soup as the sauce, looked delicious! Always great to see the sharing of knowledge so people can learn to be more self sufficient, thanks again for sharing all that you do Heather!
The time lapse of processing and talking with friends was beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. So full of community and honest living and being with others. ❤
It's a very liberating and rewarding thing to have something to do with otherwise unsellable animals. It allows us to expand as we desire and nourish our families!! I know you know how awesome that is! Hugs Kerri!
Clover is gorgeous!!! I caught her cameo in the year in review! That was such a wonderful gift! In so happy Calamity's genetics can carry on for you! Thanks for sharing and stay safe!!❤
I'm wondering, too about the blood draws if the angle of the head (specifically the nose of the goat) plays a part in how easily accessed the vein would be? Having them in a head catch like that one was super to see - wondering if it telescopes up and down for the different heights of the goats. On processing day - Looks like everything went really well (even with the temproarily escaped rooster). And a big, but gentle welcome to Clover! She does seem a bit timid, but hard to tell if that's just because she's in a new place or because that's her personality. Looking forward to watching her blossom... (hehehe on the tiny pun)
My friend said she isn't as outgoing as Calamity and she is right. She definitely loves to be near people and seeks people out. She likes to be next to me which is nice. Twice today already I took a double take at her thinking she was Calamity, its comforting to have her ♥
Clover is a beautiful doe! Hope you get some doelings from her for your herd. Really like her personality; she looks to be calm & quiet & also loving attention. She's not Calamity, but she deserves her own place in the herd & in all our hearts!! Great video! God bless!
I love that you have people over to teach! There is an upcoming class on sourdough at a local historical Starr family home, I’m excited and hope I can sing up in time.
I forgot to mention I am so impressed with the goat butchering. I wish we lived closer so we could learn from you. How much was the hanging weight on that goat? @@SageandStoneHomestead
I recently discovered your channel and absolutely love it. You explain everything is such a clear and calm way, nothing over the top, just being yourself. We hope to get into rabbits and goats this year and your channel is such an absolute wealth of information. So.. Thank you!!
He really is. My mentor Rachel gave him a lot of complements which feels nice since I have kept numerous daughters from him. He throws my favorite udder and a wide backend, that's all I know haha
The casserole looks awesome. I have to try that in winter. Still too hot to cook at the moment. I haven an air fryer/oven that I use now that it is hot. The steak is nice and tender. It doesn't put out much heat when I use the airfryer compare to the big oven. Thank you for sharing. Love and Blessings to you all. ❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏 Doris, Penrith 🇦🇺🦘
I'm in the process of figuring it out. I've tried to "tan" skins for a couple years and the hair falls out. I got a "tanning paste" to use this time and if it works well I'll share!
@@SageandStoneHomestead we have a buck and doe combination that give us steel tipped agoutis (I am slowly learning about color genetics with rabbits). Any agouti pattern disqualifies a NZ from being showable. I think they’re beautiful and I would love to make use of our rabbits’ furs.
They are very flavorful and those used to store bought chicken would probably not like it because it has flavor people describe as "gamey". We like that.
SOOOO many questions! Where did you get your head catch for the goats? What are you putting on the rabbit skin? What do you do with the fur once it's tanned? How long do you grow out your goats before you process?
Yea! Clover! I’m so happy for you guys and the fact that she’s bred…more genetics to play with lol How is the Guinea foul? I always wonder what they would taste like but I could never eat our gangster crew-they are so bossy with all about birds…and they are the alarm system lol
I would love more details on blood testing. We have looked into it multiple times but I'm overwhelmed by just not fully knowing all the steps. What lab do you use? How is it packaged to ship? Any paperwork to include? All the details!
I would love a goat harvest/processing video. We are about to try it ourselves. We have always paid to have it done for us while we assisted. Now we need to do it with the tools we have on hand. Any advice?
We plan to make a really involved video on this just trying to figure it out with the RUclips terms and conditions. Even when framed as educational they punish us when posting too graphically by stopping promotion of all of our content for a good 4 months. It's happened in the past and it's really disheartening.
What is that little metal goat head holder called? I need one. I looked up blood draw station and goat restraint with no luck. Thanks. I struggled to get blood this last time to check for pregnancy on a doe that had been attacked. That little do hickey sure would make it easier.
It took me forever and many different search terms to find it! This is exactly what we bought: www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/weaver-leather-steel-gate-attachment-head-piece-1215667

I love Ragon's devotionals also ✝️🙏❣
Yesss! You are amazing. I just found your channel. I've been watching homesteading videos for years. I love how to the point your videos are, and full of good info!
That was so kind of her to gift you Clover! Also- I would love to see an in depth video on how you process your pelts!!
Once I figure it out I'll share! I'm still learning that myself.
I've made cream of mushroom soup before because someone at Thanksgiving is allergic to MSG and it's hard to find a soup that doesn't have it in it. It's not hard at all to make!
I like that you get together with others and teach how to process the animals.
Yes! These locals purchased their first meat rabbits from us and we like to hold workshops for them to learn! It's a good way to get confidence up!
So happy to see Sweet Clover, she's beautiful and I'm sure she will fit in wonderfully! The ham and potato casserole with cream of mushroom soup as the sauce, looked delicious! Always great to see the sharing of knowledge so people can learn to be more self sufficient, thanks again for sharing all that you do Heather!
I love how the new emojis look in dark mode!!
I haven't had time to rewatch the live but Clover is beautiful! She has such a pretty face!
Love her! ♥
Did I just see Deacon? I did!
Yes!! He's a mascot all on his own haha ♥
The time lapse of processing and talking with friends was beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. So full of community and honest living and being with others. ❤
I'm so glad that conveyed well! ♥
Very good video. I’m glad y’all are teaching others to be self sufficient. We love to do the same Keep up the good work.

yes she is SUPER sweet and leads very well (she has shown before, best of breed at one show and 3rd place at others)
@@SageandStoneHomestead oh WOW!! You got a treasure!! Very happy for you & the homestead!! 🙏❤
Ah, clover was taken by a goat! Lol! I was thinking the rabbit 🤦♀️
Surprise!! I actually forgot about Clover the rabbit...
Good morning Heather. ❤❤❤
Good morning! ♥
I love that you have people over to teach! There is an upcoming class on sourdough at a local historical Starr family home, I’m excited and hope I can sing up in time.
I was right!! I am happy for you. Hope she cheers up soon.
She gets a little better every day!!
I forgot to mention I am so impressed with the goat butchering. I wish we lived closer so we could learn from you. How much was the hanging weight on that goat? @@SageandStoneHomestead
No idea! we didn't have a scale out there. He is currently resting in the fridge in his own box so I can weigh it when we go to package it up.
I recently discovered your channel and absolutely love it. You explain everything is such a clear and calm way, nothing over the top, just being yourself. We hope to get into rabbits and goats this year and your channel is such an absolute wealth of information. So.. Thank you!!
Thank you SO much! I'm glad you found us! ♥
What an activityfull video! Love it!!!
Thank you 🤗
The mushroom roo looks so good!!
I was saying Heather!! Put your leg over Clover lol!!!
Great video!😊
Clover is very pretty! So glad you got her!❤❤❤. Your the herd is so awesome!😊
Fond memories of butchering day at my grandparents.😊
Hugs Carmen! It was such a great weekend ❤️
@@SageandStoneHomestead
Looked awesome!😊
I’m so excited about Clover! I’ve been heartbroken over Calamity. 😊
Clover does a good job of softening the blow! ♥
Atleast I got to see one of my favorites today..."Stormy"
She is cute as a button! Can't wait to see her freshen and see if she's just as great as her older sister on the milk stand!
Havoc is such a handsome boy!
He really is. My mentor Rachel gave him a lot of complements which feels nice since I have kept numerous daughters from him. He throws my favorite udder and a wide backend, that's all I know haha

Well, that wasn't the surprise I thought I saw.😂
I'm pretty sure a lot of people thought I was pregnant. NOPE it's just sourdough season haha
@@SageandStoneHomestead, I didn't necessarily think you looked like you were pregnant, I just thought I saw an ultrasound pic on the fridge.😂
OH LOL! That's funny! No ultrasounds on the fridge I don't think!
@@SageandStoneHomestead, I even screenshotted a picture and then zoomed in to be sure.😂😂😂
Clover is so cute. ❤❤❤
A busy, productive day! I would love to see how you handle the rabbit skins.
I'm in the process of figuring it out. I've tried to "tan" skins for a couple years and the hair falls out. I got a "tanning paste" to use this time and if it works well I'll share!
@@SageandStoneHomestead we have a buck and doe combination that give us steel tipped agoutis (I am slowly learning about color genetics with rabbits). Any agouti pattern disqualifies a NZ from being showable. I think they’re beautiful and I would love to make use of our rabbits’ furs.
I don't blame you! We did an egg tan before and the hair fell out.
awwwwww!!!! What a great video! So happy for your great news! :D
Thank you!! 😊
Good morning Beautiful Lady
I would love to attend a processing class the next time you schedule one!!
Okay!! We have 3 boys left that need to get just a little bigger to be worth it! :)
Clover is beautiful. What s lovely gift!
Have you tried eating guinea? I'm interested in your review.... I've heard mixed reviews....
Yes! We love it and think they taste exactly like a giant quail but textured more like Chicken. Quail is a very soft meat.
They are very flavorful and those used to store bought chicken would probably not like it because it has flavor people describe as "gamey". We like that.
interesting. I dont have gosts, but good to knoe
SOOOO many questions! Where did you get your head catch for the goats? What are you putting on the rabbit skin? What do you do with the fur once it's tanned? How long do you grow out your goats before you process?
I bought it online from tractor Supply!
So sweet so have Clover in the heard and very generous of your mentor. Those casserole dishes are beautiful! Can I ask where did you get the from?
Both are Paula deen brand I believe! I have had them a long time. The blue one is a roaster pan technically!
Congrats on Clover! A new sticker model??????❤❤❤
Quite possibly! ♥
Do you worry about birth defects giving a pregnant doe ivermectin? I’ve always heard it can cause birth defects. Love your channel!
Nope it's never been an issue here! Valbazen should not be given in pregnancy
Yea! Clover! I’m so happy for you guys and the fact that she’s bred…more genetics to play with lol
How is the Guinea foul? I always wonder what they would taste like but I could never eat our gangster crew-they are so bossy with all about birds…and they are the alarm system lol
They taste rich and flavorful like quail!
YUM!!!
Hey lady. We were doing some goat maintenance today and I was wondering where you got your head catch? Thanks!
Tractor supply! Sorry I missed this comment!
@@SageandStoneHomestead no worries. 🥰
Clover is beautiful 😍 I was wondering though, where did you get the deal for holding their heads for the blood draw?
I bought it online from Tractor Supply!
I would love more details on blood testing. We have looked into it multiple times but I'm overwhelmed by just not fully knowing all the steps. What lab do you use? How is it packaged to ship? Any paperwork to include? All the details!
I happen to have all the details here! ruclips.net/video/N4zmXQB175Q/видео.html
I am really good at walking into a camera shot 🙈😬
It's NO big deal!

Oh but a good book is "basic butchery of livestock and game". Diagrams and walk-throughs in there! If you've done rabbits goats are built the same.
@@SageandStoneHomestead That is so unfair. I’m sorry to hear that. We wouldn’t want that to happened to you. Thank you for telling us.
@@SageandStoneHomestead Thank you so much. I’ll find it. 🙂

I've seen it called a "trimming stand headpiece". I probably googled: goat head holder with chain" or something lol
Thank you so much!
You betcha!!
What company do you use
