Thumbs up First Milking
Well I'm so happy I got my first real milk goat that already has milk. I milked her the other day and the first milking she gave me in my measuring cup 8 cups of milk and I mean full up to the rim of it.. I'm so happy to have a really good milk goat. Me and my family loves the goat milk and boy does it make grand mashed taters..
