Cow milk allergy also. Was told NOT to even try goats milk. However, I am a rebel. I found out I am allergic to chemicals. So tiny, I have nowhere to safely store them because the body can't extract them. Chemicals are in everything. So, my journey landed me at my farm/ homestead. First thing I did was get goats. Guess what I can drink? Goats milk. Also, I think some people go to the store to buy processed goats milk, and it is NOT the same as raw goats milk. I know someone who worked at a milk plant, said they don't do anything to the milk to change it. So, I asked him to explain the procedure. He spent five minutes telling me how he separated the milk into 3 parts, water, fat, sugars, how they boiled it...( that changes nothing, right?) Threw out the whey, added more water, sugar, and vitamins, like vitamin D... then, added what's left together, and packaged it. So, basically, you have a man made white liquid vitamin drink that all the good stuff it cooked out of. Also saw a documentary that said it's even worse for one's health than raw. I'm thinking some people react bad to store-bought goats milk because of the process. So that number could be even lower than that if they had been in an area to have the luxury of raw milk to try. I'm living the life on my organic farm now. Drinking goats milk and we will can it and see how that goes next year. Glad you have a good outcome.

I used raw goat milk to supplement breastfeeding my twins. Started them on goat milk when they were about 2 months old. They thrived, and the goat milk was very easy on their tummies. Better than infant formula which seemed to always cause problems. Goat milk is wonderful! Congratulations on being reunited with your beloved dairy! Definitely worth celebrating! 🎉❤

This was so funny and well done; you guys are so great. Circling with the goat!?! I died. Please keep making content!!!!

My husband LOVES milk. He noticed he was sick every time he ate meat. It took 3 doctors and asking for a year before he learned he has Alpha Gal, a lone star tick disease that makes you allergic to all mammal meat. Learning that helped but it wasn’t until he gave up the dairy he started to feel better. Even the allergist mocked his request for the test because we’re in Pa and the tick doesn’t live here and in his WV/PA practice he’d only seen it once and the person traveled south. Anyway, you haven’t mentioned meat making you ill but just in case you can have alpha gal without anaphylaxis…even if your dr says no. And the ticks have made it to Pa because we didn’t go south.

Hi Family 👋 I fight a very rare, genetic condition called Mastocytosis. Basically, my body produces too many mast cells and they are in places they shouldn't be, like inside my GI tract. This condition causes recurring, severe allergic reactions 24/7, all day, every day, pretty much. So, my "safe foods list" gets smaller and shorter weekly. I just reacted to blueberries, my last safe fruit. I can still have chicken and beef. And, a few vegetables. I was diagnosed with Celiac way back before anyone knew the word 'gluten.' So wheat, rye, oats and barely were removed from my diet 25+ years ago. But since then, I have lost many other favorites. I'm still thankful I can eat real food. Some live on feeding tubes and then even react to the GI food mixture or the tuning. Its tough when your body is so sensitive. No coffee. No tea. No juice. And, now dairy is starting to cause symptoms. I'm in denial. It's the one thing I still have. Yogurt. Pudding. Milk. Butter. I'm going to check out your doctor's information. Maybe she has heard of Mastocytosis and maybe she has even been able to help a few patients who suffer from it. We'll see. I only tried goat's milk once about 25 years ago. My throat started itching, swelled and U started coughing. So that's not an option. Plus, I'm allergic to oats, almonds, some rice, coconut cream and that leaves pea protein. I bought a bottle of Ripple this week. I plan on testing it on a good day when my symptoms are low to see if I can tolerate it. I don't have high hopes though because non-organic peas caused reactions. It's so hard when they are adding GMO foods and other toxins to our food supply already. I'm looking forward to the day I get my miracle from God and I can eat foods freely again! 🙏❤️🥰 Blessings from Texas, Candace

We have sables (colored saanen). I love how quiet and gentle tempered they are. Even our bucks are like big gentle dogs. I also like getting almost a gallon per doe from once per day milking. I was frustrated with ND because of the small amount per milking and those tiny teats. They are cute and easier on the fencing though.

I love my Saanens, always wanted to find some Sables (the white color is the only thing I don't like about the breed). I love their temperament, very calm, sweet and quiet. And that was the only breed of buck I ever kept long term and would consider keeping one again. I have had a couple other breeds, but I would get frustrated with the small amount of milk after having Saanens....it didn't seem worth their much more obnoxious nature, LOL The only other breed I liked was the Kinder, at least the line I had was quiet and good natured. Never kept a buck though, didn't need to at the time, so I have no experience with the males of that breed.

So happy for you! Can’t wait to see you get a huge goat herd 😂

The goat I recommend the most is the oberhasli goat. They are gentle, rarely scream unless there is a problem, and easier to milk. I started with nubians. They escape fences, are loud, obnoxious when they want something, and hard to manage. Oberhasli are not like that at all. They have long teets so they are much easier to milk then the nigerian, too, with the milk machine. Watching you milk by hand with the goats struggling reminded me a time I never want to go back to. I bought a milk machine on amazon for 100 dollars. The goats love it. They never fought with me again about the milk. I don't know what it is about the machine compared to my hands, but they are unruly with my hands. It sucks trying to figure out how to run electric to your milk stand, but it is well worth it for the goat's sake and your sake. 😂

Hilarious! Loved the video and the happy ending!

I didn't expect the goat hugging to be so dramatic 🤣 gotta add [EMOTIONAL, NOT CLICK BAIT] to the video title lol

This is my favorite episode! I truly lol’d many times.

Best video yet! Those goats sure do love you, even if you do think they are gremlins. Our goats give us so much joy. Embrace the silliness. The universe just kicked you in the butt a little bit :)

I discovered the smooth, velvety and wonderful quality of goat butter several months ago. Yum. It's like getting a very high-quality cow's milk butter.

So, if you haven't already looked into guernsey goats, they might be something you'd be interested in. They are SO QUITE! Additionally, they are hardy, easy keepers and have delightful personalities.

You put a smile on my face today :) You have beautiful ND goats. I love our registered Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats and their delicious milk. If you are looking to add more let me know !!! Congrats on getting to enjoy your favorite foods again.

LOL Great video Aust. Yay More Goats.

We have a herd of Nigerians who we love but we just added British Guernsey goats to our herd and they are SO incredibly quiet. They have been here about a month and never make a peep. I know you’re not a fan of how loud they are so you might want to add a Guernsey to your herd. They are medium sized and produce more milk than a Nigerian, a great homestead breed. Also, for off flavors look into the free choice mineral buffet system. Game changer. I run a holistic goat care group… “The Crunchy Goat” feel free to reach out with any questions!

So happy for you! My son has a milk protein intolerance that seems very similar to yours so we will give goat milk a try!

I have Saanen and Saanen crosses. Did you know Boar goats have upvyI 38% cream? I have some crosses. Out of 2 gallons of milk, I get one quart of heavy cream. It's very silky and wonderful in coffee, butter, ice cream, and cheese. The cream is white, and the butter is white. In a blind taste test, none of my family or friends can tell the difference between cow or goat butter. When I make my cheese, I use a bit of cultured buttermilk I make with .... goat milk. The yogurt I prefer is Bulgarian yogurt easily made in an Instant pot with goat milk. I do strain it. You may be looking into a cream separator. Best of luck!

I couldn't handle store bought cows milk when I was a kid, went to raw goats milk for a while until my mother tried raw cows milk and figured out it was the pasteurization process. So she's had shares in a cow for 30 years now.

I live on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. After a lifetime of my father’s favorite food being shrimp and crawfish he developed and allergy to shellfish. He was so in denial he almost killed himself because he wouldn’t stop eating them. He finally stopped when it put him in the hospital.

And now the circle of life is complete. 🤣

I found out my family carries celiac disease and gave up gluten. My health got drastically better but bread was my favorite food and back then there weren't alot of GF products (and the ones that existed tasted like carboard and birdseed). Thankfully GF products have improved markedly. Then I started having problems with coffee. Too sad of a subject to talk about! Then when my son was born, he was allergic to every dang thing, including dairy and eggs. I tried giving them up for his sake but literally went through withdrawals from the lack of cheese 🤣

Try a different kind of cookie. Can be something in the chocolate chips. That was it for me!

I've been giving up foods for years, but yeah, dairy (cow) was a hard one to give up. Because I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE cheese. But... I love not being in constant pain more than I love cheese. Kinda eyeing the goats now and wondering...

Had to give up coffee, citrus, tomatoes and pepper last week to prevent severe and constant bladder pain. I had consumed them all daily.

Dude, there’s cow’s milk in those chocolate chips. I’m glad the process of making the chips renders the protein edible for you.

@Everyone Get an American LaMancha's Elle-May is an American LaMancha, she is VERY quiet, and mellow.

25 years ago I had to give up bananas and eggs due to a bad gallbladder. The only way I can eat egg or banana is if there is enough other stuff with it, ie . banana bread there is flour and nuts and other ingredients with it. Some days I would kill to have an omelette.

Fresh, raw goats milk is awesome, esp in my coffee. Nigerian dwarf goats are my go to and come on who doesn't love a tiny nigie kid. I have 4 in milk right now. A lot quieter than the Nubians and are the biggest Cats I own. My daughter had the milk allergy and is fine with goats milk. I have the issue with flour and it's not gluten at all. It's whether it is Bleached, even sugar. Unbleached flour and raw sugar are what I have to buy anymore. In any product or I get ill.

Yes, I love bell peppers and apparently our bodies can build an allergy to that which makes zero sense to me but now I am completely allergic to bell peppers which I love and I’m not allergic to any other kind of pepper which is great but I suspect there are some peppers that are more similar to bell peppers that I am actually allergic to. I’m just not allergic to the hot kind which I love. Also, I would hate being lactose intolerant I love milk! I dream of one day having a Homestead in which I have cows so I can make all the dairy products I want with my cows milk. LMBO. However I am very glad that you found a milk alternative. There is a goat cheese from Trader Joe’s that I really like it has cranberries. It’s totally delicious and I bet you guys can simulate it with great results.

People said allergies can go away after 7 years… no luck the doctor told me never to try it again it’s just making it worst …. So no more mango for me can’t even cut it for my family my hand swell …

Lol I remember when you had goats. I was sad the goats were gone. How long ago was that? I laughed when goats came again.

I had a milk allergy to cows milk at a young age. Started raising goats over 5 years ago and I had no symptoms. Last year I started getting swollen lymph nodes and inflammation. I got allergy tested and I'm allergic to all milk.

I had to give up anything with wheat because several years ago I developed a true allergy to it. I break out in hives. It’s not fun. I’m hoping the idea of allergies getting out of your system every seven years is true so I can go back to not having to worry about foods with wheat in it.

I tried both, can't drink either and I love dairy particularly cheese of any kind. I tried everything lactose free but it doesn't help. I found I can tolerate Ghee but not all ghee, it could be the quality. I found it is the casein.

This is a good time to bring up ghee. Ghee is unsalted butter with the milk fat cooked out of it. You end up with a high smoke point butter flavored oil that does not contain lactose or casein. If you can handle ghee, then you will still have genuine butter flavor in your life. Overall, goat milk is healthier than cow.
