Hi All.
I have a 3yr old ND. She kidded out the beginning of March. The milking has been quite trying to say the least.
She's not a first time milker, but i am. (Her previous owner milked her.) She jumps onto the stand no problem and but barely stands long enough to finish her oats. Then she's done. She lays down and leans away from me. The kicking isn't too bad, or maybe I've just gotten really good at moving the bucket out of the way.
I guess my question is how long does it normally take to get a goat used to milking (again)? It's been almost 2 months and I don't see much improvement. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?
