Great information makes me little homesick raised on dairy farm did a little 4H But dad in the 30’s worked in a dairy that had a couple goats as coal miner canaries He said if the goat got sick start checking the calves He would agree on the ornery nature of goats but he said a goat could eat anything and survive he talked about one that drank motor oil if it got the chance ❤❤❤ thanks for the memory lane

Thanks so much for the time invested I appreciate the great info from Mr. Larry and the qns you asked

Larry is my kinda guy. Just a straight shooter. I too come from a long history of cattle family but we have incorporated goats into that the last 15 years or so. My vet told me the day we bought them (ironically had to see the vet same day). Why the heck did you go and buy goats for? Don't you know they just look for a way to die? haha. Appreciate you touring Larry's farm and asking great questions etc. I love seeing this type of format see how other breeders do things.

Listening to a seasoned breeder or show folks talk about conformation is like listening to a foreign language for me.

Haha…. It’s True. I’ve been working with one of our show friends, Aaron Jennings and I think we are going to put together a video where we talk about the different body parts and what they are talking about. I think this is valuable because purchasers at auctions are looking at these things too, specifically shoulder structure, length of loin, leg, etc for quality cuts of meat. Hopefully we can put that together soon. Thanks for watching as always. 😬

Shipping a live animal from one country to another can be a complicated process that requires adherence to regulations and documentation requirements. The difficulty of shipping a goat from the United States to Jamaica can depend on various factors, such as the specific regulations of both countries, the transportation methods available, and the availability of necessary permits and veterinary health certificates. To export a goat from the United States to Jamaica, it is important to comply with the export requirements of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the import requirements of the Jamaican Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries. These requirements can include specific health certifications and tests, quarantine periods, and documentation, which can vary depending on the species of the animal and the purpose of the export. In addition, it is important to consider the logistics of transporting a live animal over a significant distance, such as the availability of air or sea freight services and the cost of shipping. It may also be necessary to arrange for animal handling and care during transit and to ensure that the goat is transported in compliance with animal welfare regulations. Overall, shipping a goat from the United States to Jamaica can be a complex process that requires careful planning, attention to detail, and compliance with a range of regulations and requirements. It is advisable to consult with a licensed animal exporter, veterinarian, or government agency to ensure that all necessary steps are taken to successfully export the goat.

I’ve never waited 10 days to dehorn! 3-5 days or they WILL scur and never stop at the copper ring. Go till the ring turns white and the cartilage horn bud peels off. Have patience go to a count on 10 and let the area cool off between, just keep repeating until the white bud peels off. Cauterize any bleeds and spray with blue coat. Half the county calls me to do their dehorning so I have had a lot of experience. Private treaty type sale is actually the fair way to do it not auction. Auction is for inflating profit. Fair is setting the same price for EVERYONE based on class of animal and first come first serve with a waiting list. That is how it’s done in the dairy goat world. Auctions are never fair, they create an artificial value system that prices normal people out and entices others into debt that they will not be able to recover by the actual value of the animal. Not to say that I’d never visit an auction some day but I don’t trust people who won’t consider direct sales for actual value of the animal. I’ve found animals sired by big name Ai that would turn a lot of heads but only cost $300 and breeding up with Ai is cheaper than auction prices.

He was expecting some of them to be pregnant. When we are doing early checks to see if the moms are pregnant, you can lightly feel their udder and it will usually be staring to fill out within about a month of lambing or kidding. It’s quick and cheaper than an ultrasound. 😬

While we don’t know Mr. Lorenz personally, I can tell you that he was extremely courteous and helpful. We reached out to many goat farms in an effort to provide an interview to our viewers. Larry was one of the few that agreed. Since that time, we have gotten a lot of unhappy breeders who didn’t expect the interview to do so well and initially declined an interview. We don’t show goats, sell show goats, or deal with club breeders at all. This interview, like others, was just to help show our viewers and example of a goat farm. We have been to goat farms large and small from thousands of acres in west Texas to a few acres on the gulf coast. It seems many people raise animals in different ways. Many of Larry’s goats have done extremely well in state fair’s such as Indiana and Illinois as well as at the national level in Louisville. So, to say he hasn’t raised kids, doesn’t know what he’s doing, etc… it would seem your argument would be better aimed at the judges. It would appear there are a lot of people who would disagree with you. The personal attacks, I don’t understand. I would assume you are another goat person and have a personal issue with one another? Perhaps you’re just an angry guy that posts on KZread? I will leave your message up, even though I think you could have put a lot more effort into your particular grievances than just calling names. If you would like to share your name and farm, it might make you seem like less of a troll, but that’s your decision. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Thanks for watching.

I understand your position here. Like many jobs/careers their are multiple aspects. You have people who like their job and you have people collecting a paycheck. This guy clearly was for the latter with 9 minutes of edited clips of him talking crap (so yeah I called it out) next you’ll notice when he’s near the pen all the baby goats run to the opposite side. Goats are social and not having their mom in immediate proximity is scary for them (hence the cackling the mothers do; the sound means it’s safe and when the mom stops they stop). They were the first animal to be domesticated for a reason. So for a bunch of goats to run to the opposite side is another indicator of my perspective. You don’t need to know the alphabet to read a room. The water tanks he cut up for them also had openings too small for their size (so useless) in that case he’s either negligent of his job or the animals. As far as his “hospitality” I assure you I’ve been around enough people like him to know when someone is putting on a show (likely hoping for promotional purposes) As far as the success rate for the goats it takes hard work and dedication. You get what you put in. Don’t diminish the effort others put in. If it were always his goats it would be one thing but it’s not the case. Another note yeah I like goats and it was a long and arduous process to get there but my ultimate beef is with someone putting on airs of being “grass root” but talking crap behind others backs that can’t defend themselves. That’s good ol boys garbage and I’ll have none of it. Their vision is roughly 270 degrees which means everything they see is roughly 4x thinner than what we see. They start walking within an hour how long does it take us to even crawl. All organisms need stimulation to survive . The more intelligent the more that’s required. A few poorly cut out water tanks in a pen away from their mother isn’t a good start. When I was talking about kids I was talking about children not a giles. Because children will put a steak knife in a socket completely aware it will likely kill them. Hence the reference; it was meant to be playful. In short.. I spoke up because someone should have. If I want an industrialized tour of a farm I can go to a butcher shop or the deli in my local grocery store. I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas and wish you the best. P.S. I didn’t name call. Next time inquire, show interest in what people have to say rather than immediately regarding them as a troll for better responses. Thank you for your time.
