I use a 5/8 rubber air hose. I bought a roll about 5 years ago and I’m using it it can stand being run over by a car or truck. It’s not the cheap but we’ll worth the investment.

We have raised Nubian goats for 13 years now. We do not feed sweat feed to are goats. We use regular goat feed. We found out that sweat feed makes them too hipper and more aggressive toward each other. Your coop should have a plane goat feed.

We live on 27 arces. We started out with Nubian goats. They are a bigger goat. They are a dual goat both used for meat and milk. The milk is a little richer than cows milk. We now have both goats and cattle. We have jersey and Dexters. Both the Nubian goats and the Jersey,Dexter cows are A1A1 milk whitch is better then A2A2.

We choose this life to see the fruits of our labor. God has blessed us with a big garden cows for milk and hogs and chickens,rabbits for meat. So far it is a wonderfull life. May God bless the rest of the Freesteaders on here.

We have elderberry’s and when I trimmed them I always save some of the cuttings. I usually sale them for around $10 a pcs. They go quick at that price. What type of elderberry’s do you have. They are a couple different kinds.

We have had kennbec for years. That is what grows the best in the area that we live in. When you plant them plant at least 1 more row that way you can save your seed. We just rotate them in between our 2 gardens. We have had the same taters for at least 5 years now and still doing great.

I go through my local forestry service. You can order from 25 on up. If you buy them by the bundle It is much cheaper. It usually is around a 1 a tree and up depends on what you get. They have a great selection of fruit tree and hard wood.

We have 26 arces in Roan Mtn. We have a jersey cow and a Dexter. Secrets are better for cleaning up but the jersey is the best for milk if you ask me.

You can go through your local forestry service. You can get an order form from them. They have a good variety of fruit trees and also hard wood tree’s. Just depend on what you want.

They make an all stock feed. That way if you have cattle or any other livestock. You can feed that out to them. The only time we feed sweat feed is when our nanny’s are kidding.
