Tuttle Family Farm Husbandry Practices
Raw milk supports the immune system

DO WE VACCINATE
We do vaccinate all of our goats with the CD/T Vaccination once a year.  We feel that the vaccine is important for a long, quality, healthy, and happy life of our goats. 
The vaccine protects the goat against three diseases: Clostridium type C, type D and Tetanus. 
Goats are very suseptible to these three diseases and the treatments that are available, if contracted, are not very effective.
We vaccinate our milking does 30 days prior to kidding, which we would have already stopped milking her in preparation for her kids to arrive.  We also do not start milking the doe for human consumption until at least 2 weeks after kidding. This would be a minimum of 6 weeks from the goats time of vaccintion until her milk is actually availble to the public.  

WHAT WE FEED

All goat on our farm are available to free grazing/browsing during the day.  They are also provided hay, clean water, and minerals 24/7 in their designated barn areas.  
A dairy goat's health benefits greatly with the addition of a quality feed to their diet when their bodies are working hard grow and to produce milk  Feed also helps our milking girls keep up their production throughout the year.
Our growing kids are offered a quality feed and alfalfa to support their growth, was well as black oil sunflower seeds for additional vitamins and minerals for their overall health. 
Our milking does are offered a quality organic, NON-GMO feed. They are also offered alfalfa and black oil sunflower seeds for their overall health and additional nutritional needs due to their milk production.

If you have any questions concerning our farm's husbandry practices, please contact us for more information.
