Is there arsenic in the metal tub containers? Asparagus loves arsenic.
Jess try BiMart. Its in The Northwest
I always milked by hand and When the electricity was out my hands were used to it and it was not hard to do. We drank our milk raw too, and my kids were healthier than other kids and did not get sick as often as other kids. I did run my equipment through the dishwasher with a heat dry cycle to keep equipment clean. Because you see your cow every day you can watch her to make sure she is not sick. What will you do with all the milk?
Drinking raw milk is the best & so better for the gut health. My husband was put on raw goat milk for his colon. He had colon cancer & now he is tested twice this year & all tests were negative. Thank the good Lord for the healing of goat milk. Congratulations on your beautiful farm. You milk so good. Sad you lost a glass jar. The jars here in the Washington state is sparse here also. Love watching your video. 🙂
I cool my milk the way the Rhodes do. I put half gallon jars of milk In cooler of ice water right after milking…. Then you can forget about it and not worry. I use plastic liter bottles filled with water to freeze then just change them out to keep water in cooler ice cold. Works great for chilling milk fast. Then you won’t have to worry about broken jars.. Great channel, you guys inspire me!
My daughter brings home gallon jars from the pizza shop she works in. Check those kinds of places and if your a member of Costco or Sam's Club they have pickles and olives in those big jars. We love both so I have the empty jars from those purchases.
I have never seen a cow with six teets
Jessica, try going to your local restaurants that serve pickles … old pickle jars work great and they are probably just throwing them away!
I have wasted a lot of money on milkers and this one is the absolute best one I have found. Ultimate EZ Milker w/Stainless Steel Bucket for Livestock
I know you didn't ask, but I think you should name your rooster Herald.
Good gravy, what do you do with a dozen eggs a day???
The unnamed rooster should be called “Fat Daddy” That’s a hefty rooster lol
Rooster name for the pot. 'Roy'. Like Roy Rogers from the old cowboy films lol
You may want to make sure your jars are tempered glass. Going from cow's body temperature to freezer may be what broke your let broke your jar. Canning jars are tempered glass.
Uline has them
You could make the stand for the cow higher, then it would be less of a problem for Miah to join in milking..
We've been drinking our milk (cow and goat) raw for 25 years. I agree with you about the milking machine. I can wash my hands much faster than I can sanitize the milking machine components. We have it in case of emergency, but rarely use it.
Jess, go thrifting – I've found many glass jars, the cheapest have been from yard sales. Love your family and content!
JARS!!!! Go to your local big box store and buy gal jugs of pickles. They are processed in gal jars. Even if you done eat the pickles you still gain the jar. The rooster looks like a Stanford.
When people spill their alcohol, they say "alcohol abuse" – When you spill milk it must be "milk abuse" or esp. in your case 'save the milk'! Hope you heal quickly and find the Chiropractor the Lord wants for you!
Ace Hardware has the Ball half gallon mason jars $15.99 for a six pack.
Her halter looks to tight….
The last 1/2 gallons I got were $25 for a new unwrapped 6 pack…at a flea market. That is how I found several flats of jars!
we reused the jars from peaches we had bought from walmart and they were fine even a month later it was still perfectly sealed.
