Bottle Baby Goats And The Last Adults Ready For New Homes

Good morning everyone, this is Holly Rae with Rae's Mini Menagerie Homestead, soon to be Click Around and Find Out Homestead, and I'm just doing a little video to show the bottle babies and the adults that are left, well the ones that are available for sale. We have two adults left and they will be for sale this week and they're both in milk. Our last does, last adults period as far as the goats go, and then we have a few bottle baby goats that are turning about six weeks old. They're down to two bottles and they're ready to go to their new homes for whoever wants to take on their bottle feeding, or they'll just stay here until they're weaned and then they'll be available then, but they're available now. I'm rambling. Anyway, hope you enjoyed the little video. Trying to get him on the bottle, trying to get him a good picture of him. Wish his body would stretch out. There he goes, that's good. Now we're advertising our bottle babies for sale. I don't know if anybody's in the state, South Carolina, but I have my email in the description if you wanted to contact me. This is one that's for sale. This is Waffles. He's a Mini Alpine. He's three-quarter Nigerian Dwarf and one-quarter Alpine. He's gonna be, to us, he's a big boy. He's about two or three inches taller than our full Nigerian Dwarf babies and he's six weeks old. He gets two bottles a day, one in the morning, one at night, and that's only for the next week if he's still with us. After that he'll be down to one bottle a day for a week and then by eight weeks old he is weaned. Yep, Waffles, you're a pretty boy. Here he comes with Don't be another boy that's available. Yeah, there he goes. Oh yeah, see you get him on the table works really well. Stretches him out better. I know they're not standing perfectly. They're not show goats. We don't register ours. We're just trying to show you what they look like. He's got blue eyes. This guy is also naturally pulled. This is Radish. He's black and white. He's got frosted ears, blue eyes, and he's naturally pulled, which is naturally hornless. He's down to two bottles a day as well. He's approximately six weeks old as well and will be weaned at two, at eight weeks. There's really only two weeks left and like only one week of two bottles and a week of one bottle and then you're done. We make it very easy for the next owner and he's drinking. He will be available as well. Here comes Rice. You pretty boy. Oh, I'm trying to trip myself up. Got that on video. I about fell, tripped over this dang bucket. Oh, he's talking. This is Rice. He's a light gold, looks like cream. He's got blue eyes and he is horned, but he is also down to two bottles. Same, around the same age, about six weeks old. Yeah, he does. He sucks the bottle in so badly he squishes the nipple and we have to constantly take it out of his mouth so the air goes back in the nipple so he can get the milk. He gets frustrated. He's like, give it back. Yeah, pretty boy. Yeah, you can really see his eyes now. Looks like his dad, not his daddy actually, I thought it was his daddy, his grandpa. His grandpa was our big buck named Edwin. Okay, if anybody watched my update video, all our boys are gone. We are down to two adults in these bottle babies and then we will be done with the goat era. All right, here he comes with Quaker. He's like, I've never been up here before. Bring him up here and put him on the stand. That way they actually stand for us and I get a screenshot and I post them on my Facebook page as well. Look how pretty he is. Quaker's got gold eyes and he is also naturally pulled, naturally hornless. He has a red gold. Got this like, somebody said it was, it looks like an A on his side. It does. His name is, but yeah, we call him Quaker like Quaker Oats. Naturally hornless, gold eyes, about six weeks old. He's still got about two weeks worth of bottle feeding left. He's down to two bottles. One in the morning, one at night. Anybody can do two bottles a day. If you want a bottle baby, try to get one that's at two bottles a day. A lot of people want to let them go way too early and we wait, we do all the hard work, make it easy for the next owner. And the bottle feeding just makes it so you can bond with them and it just makes it a fun experience and it makes the babies very, very tame and friendly. That's how we've been doing it for years. Anyway, that's Quaker. Now he's going to get our, one of our girls that we're going to advertise. She's a little over six weeks old. That's Quaker's sister Quimby, his twin. Quimby. Oh yeah, here, here's a baba. Here's a baba. There she goes. She is also a light gold, almost like a yellow cream gold. She's got gold eyes and she is also polled naturally hornless. She's down to two bottles a day. One in the morning, one at night. Yes, she's beautiful. Get it baby. I said anybody can do two bottles a day. Try doing four or five bottles a day around the clock with 11 babies. That's the hard part. A lot of people have no idea what it takes, but it is worth it in the end. We have the friendliest goats here. All right. Hi, this is Posey. She's one of our last adults that we have. She's currently in milk. She's one of the mamas to two of the babies that we have and she's still wanting to eat. She's licking the bowl. But she is uh, she's got gold eyes obviously, she's got horns and she's very, very sweet. She's actually one of my most favorite goats and it's gonna be really hard to see her go, but she will be available this week as well. Yeah, she gives us, she gives us, here I'll show you, she gives us, gave us a little over a quart just now from her first milking. So she's pretty incredible. Yeah, good girl. Nice sweetheart. Can you give me a good picture? Yeah, that's a good one. Good girl. And this little squirt is Tallulah. She's the smallest goat we have, or had, and we had way more, but she's always been the smallest. But she's also got some of the biggest attitude. She is super sweet to us and will beat the crap out of other goats. But she's usually pretty sweet. She just knows she's, she's a little, little bad thing. Got blue eyes and horns and she is a, um, she's roaned, covered in roaning, and she's belted. Got that white belt going all the way around her body. She's just beautiful. She's also known for having multiples. Last year her first time she had quads, this year she had twins, which really shocked us. They were two big boys and when she was as big as she was last year, we would have sworn she was going to have at least triplets, if not quads again. But she had two big boys. Two boys. Yeah, she's gonna eat. There you go. She's being stubborn because she wants to get down. But she needs to eat her food. But, um, she also gives us almost a quart in the morning and about half a quart at night. So a quart and a half for this little lady. She's, she's amazing. We call her a little powerhouse. But she is also going to be available this week. They are our last two adults, both in milk, and they're fantastic little girls. But yeah, that's it. We have, um, currently we have, um, let me think, four boys available. We have two girls that are old enough to go, but right now we're only going to be offering up one girl, which is Quimby that you saw, um, because Rumi needs to be with Priscilla. I only have three girls, so if I sell the two that are old enough right now, then Priscilla will be alone and she still has at least two more weeks before she goes down to two bottles a day. So it'd have to be a special situation. Either somebody needs to get them all three now and be willing to bottle feed her three times a day and the other one's two times a day, or they can take Quimby and I can sell the other two together. Because we can't have just one bottle baby goat all alone. She'll be stressed and crying, and goats have to have a buddy. They do not do well alone. And, um, so that's why I'm not offering up all the girls for sale right now. But, um, four of the boys are ready. And then the other four, as long as people are willing to feed them three times a day, you know, I would let them go as well. But I'm not going to fully advertise them yet. Because it just seems like a waste of my time. Sometimes when they find out they have to do three times a day, they're not willing to do it. So most of the times, people's schedule doesn't matter what you're doing. You can fit in a bottle feeding at, in the morning and at night. And then they don't even have to measure it out. I, I just, um, it's a nine ounce bottle. I don't go past nine ounces. They fill the bottle up, give it to them in the morning, give it to them at night, and you do it on your schedule. So it can be six in the morning and six at night. It could be eight in the morning and eight at night. You know, whatever works for you. Um, yeah, like I said, uh, there's an email in my description if anybody's in South Carolina or surrounding states that's willing to come out here and get one. Because I do not deliver. Um, then you can, uh, inquire on that email. Oh, and just so you know, I do, the prices are $150 for the males and $250 for the females. Been like that since 2014. But if you have any other questions, please feel free to comment. Or you, like I said, you can send me an email. It's in my description. And, um, hope you enjoyed. Hope you like, comment, and subscribe. And I'll see you in the next one.
