goat milking parlour on wheels

Filed under: Videos |


www.permies.com Karen Biondo of La Biondo Farm and Kitchen on Vashon Island, Washington shows off a portable goat shelter, and a portable goat milking parlour. I think the goat milking parlour is the most interesting. And apparently, it was made for practially nothing. Lots of glass – all free. The goat milking parlour has a nice goat milking stanchion inside. Karen’s goats really like peanut butter!

  2. A little RUDE to compare a nice, fine, sturdy goat with Paris Hilton, isn’t it?? 🙂

  4. Nice, I like the fancy milkstand and putting palettes on muddy ground sounds like a great idea for some of our muddy bits.

  8. Awesome video, she has really got her system down. Love the trailer. Things seem more awesome on wheels. Food trailers, RVs, homes on wheels and even stanchions on wheels. Thanks for the share.

  10. And since it’s a trailer it doesn’t add to the property tax or regulatory burden of the property owner. Part of the advantage of moving to a rural area is the lower property tax, but every taxable building you construct decreases that advantage.
    All I own is a 975sqft condo but I pay more property tax in two months than a lot of rural home owners pay in a year. Oh well, at least it’s paid off now.

  13. Our friend Rick mills lumber and keeps goats, down in Port Orford. He likes to use the slab-ends (the partially curved boards from the edge of a log) to make walkways for the goats. Appears they don’t like to step in mud if they can help it. Nice parlor!

  14. Otherwise, the ground around the milking parlor turns into a nasty, muddy mess. If you keep moving it around, then when things get a little yucky, you can move it all.

  15. Hi! I’m new to all this and I definitely plan on having at least a couple of these little sweeties. I’m curious, why would it be beneficial to have a dairy parlor that is “movable”?

  17. Love it! Her use of pallets in the background is awesome. I’m always seeing them free for the taking.
