I just got done taking a shower. Here's why!
I was peacefully milking my Artemis (FF Nubian doe). My bucket had about a quarter of a quart in it. Suddenly, she kicks, and the milk bucket goes flying-on top of my head. Have you ever felt warm goat's milk drip down your face and shirt? Not pleasant. I look down and realize that I'm completely covered in milk, as is the stanchion and the floor. The cats are, of course, obscenely happy and start licking everything in sight. I was, of course, obscenely unhappy. The rest of the milking went without incident, thankfully.
The nice thing was that I wasn't going to keep her milk anyway (we wormed her not too long ago). The chickens now have a little bit of a snack.But, in the future, we will get more milk that we can't drink. Does anybody have some good goat's milk soap recipes? I would prefer a recipe that doesn't involve lye, if such a thing exists, and I would like to be able to add stuff like lavender, other herbs and essential oils.
