BTW ... Do you have any idea how disgusting a buck goat is? OMG ... They smell as bad as a skunk if you ask me. I almost feel bad putting my sweet little Dixie with such a foul creature. I can literally smell him from the other end of the barn. Apparently this smell is what makes them attractive to the does so I guess Dixie doesn't mind.
So, after realizing that eventually I will have some more milk producers ( about a year and a half from now) and thinking about ways to utilize all that milk I decided to experiment with making goat milk soaps and lotions. I'm pretty excited about it because it's a great way to spend time with my daughters and create a useful product that will be good for us. No chemicals, no toxic dyes or perfumes, just 100% pure all natural oils, milk, herbs, flowers and essential oils. Since my goat is dried up right now for breeding I am going to start perfecting my recipes by using coconut milk as the main milk. I may break down and purchase some organic goat milk just for research purposes until my goat kids, but the main goal here is to use as many home grown ingredients as possible (and not blowing up my kitchen).
