Here is Lilly heading to the barn yesterday morning for the AM milking.
There is our favorite lamancha helping us demonstrate our homemade hand pump milker. She is such a good goat. She gives about 1 quart a milk each milking. We milk Lilly twice a day and sometimes three times.

As for our Pygmy/Nigerian cross goats. They all are not quite as good about the milking. I don't think they are doing to bad for having never been milked before. If we can have them free range all day then milk them before we reunite them with their babies for the night then we can get 1 quart from 5 goats. We do not milk them all out as they are still nursing their babies and we only milk them once a day.
