Valentine's Day in the barn means 40 degree weather and a very shaggy Phineas. I am catching up on grooming after a three week freeze and explaining why the bucks came before the kidding girls. Plus a review of those viral barn pants.

Grooming a heavily pregnant goat is a workout for both of us. Denali is looking robust and ready for babies so we are doing a gentle pre kidding cleanup to keep her comfy.

Wren the goat has some impressive range when she poops, and I am trying to find a scientific explanation for it. We are also talking about coat layers and why I refuse to groom the whole herd in one day.

The coveralls are out and the winter coats are coming in. Discussing why I breed for less cashmere undercoat to keep grooming fast and easy for the show ring.

After several uses, here is my final, honest review of the Goatzy portable stand. It is a great value and super stable but getting the bigger goats up by myself is a problem.

First look at the new Goatzy goat stand while grooming Lotus. We love the stability and the side rail proximity, but the single hand-tightened lock point for bucks is a hard no. The stand retails for $139.99.

Wren the young goat gets a bath! I talk about her coat, show potential, and generational improvements in my herd. But the real drama is the loud panting: Thorn and Phineas the bucks are fighting during rut season.

Goat bath drama! Mature Jacey made her grooming a tough session, even blowing a fuse. We are also sharing winterizing hacks, why a flexible grooming schedule is OK, and the challenges of heated water buckets.

Emma the goat is on the stand for her bath! The weather is still warm, so it's a perfect time to get clean before winter. Goats hate being wet, but they love being clean! She's a bit feisty because she wants babies, but it's not safe for her.

Fanta is up for her dreaded bath. Rushing to get her and three others done today before the cold weather hits, because keeping her clean is vital for her health. She's clean and done! Also, a surprise update on the precocious laying hens.

Ever wonder how long it takes a goat to dry after a spa day? I timed it! Check out Sock Monkey, Lotus, Misty, and Persephone post bath as I get them ready for the big show. The results might surprise you.

Persephone's grooming session is also a talk on why retaining natural instincts and predator awareness is key for livestock, even around our farm dogs. A little suspicion goes a long way!

Misty the goat is on the stand for her spa day. While I get her show ready, I'm talking about our YouTube channel's journey, hitting over 700 subscribers, and the two brand deal offers I just turned down. Find out why.

Lotus's final show prep grooming is a wrap! Bathing a goat twice in a week tests her patience, especially with Hugo, Bailey, and Sophie around. Plus, a peek at post show life and why I'm a stickler for knowing my kidding dates.

What does a $1000 goat bath look like? Getting our show goats ready is no joke. I am talking biosecurity, lice nightmares, and why my dog was banned from the barn. The full story is in our latest video.

How do I get a goat on the grooming stand? Leash, collar, step up, slide into the head stanchion. It's a quick routine—they cooperate for their pampering! Next up is hoof care.

Fanta gets a little spa day! At 13 years old, this queen of the herd may not have much hair left, but she's still teaching us about patience, love, and goat care. Grooming and Rambling continues with the farm's original diva.

Persephone is the hot mess of the herd! 🐐 As a hard fainter, she is always tangled, clumpy, and dramatic. Today’s Grooming and Rambling shows what life with a true hard fainter goat is really like.

A quiet grooming session turned into a treasured memory. Flash, our senior buck, passed shortly after this video. He was just shy of 11. We reflect on his legacy, the next generation, and finding peace in the pause.
