The weeping is a response to damage of the tissue in general. It is not necessarily an indicator of how well you did or didn't do the job :) You are looking for a solid copper ring during the procedure. I would say that most of us have the…"

You will love your Simple Pulse!! Cleaning will take much longer than milking with just 1 goat, but it sounds like it will be worth it considering your situation. When you have 6 to milk, you are REALLY going to appreciate it :)

Hopefully someone will hop on here with a better suggestion than mine which is strength comes with time. Although after a month, I would think you would be starting to feel less discomfort in your hands. Is it improving at all?

What a fun adventure to renovate the old barn!!!!
For the milking parlor, my favorite thing is the large stainless sink with a small hot water heater. I also added a sink and hot water heater in my dairy barn which is my favorite upgrade…"

Hi, Tammy. Good to meet you. My family has a small homestead in the Texas Hill Country and we raise a herd of 4 Nigerian Dwarf, 1 Boer, 1 African Pygmy and 5 Nigora Goats. Four of our does are currently pregnant, three of which are for the first time, and all due this April. We survived the recent snow and are excited for Spring. I am happy to be here with all of you. Thank you for the welcome.
