Chicory Springs Farm Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goats

TIPS AND HINTS

  To get tattoo ink off your hands and from under your nails, off of your tattoing tools...  Goop creme hand cleaner.  Available at any auto parts store.  Works better than anything I've tried.

If you need to tattoo multiple kids at once, get two tattoing tools so you can put the farm number in one and the kid's number in the other one.  Saves lots of time and changing out of those pesky, pokey numbers.

To get stinky buck smell off your clothes, just add 1/2 cup or more of plain ammonia to the laundry with your regular soap.  To get it off your hands use goat's milk hand soap that includes lemon and a scrub base.

If you put a shovel through the bottom of your $40.00 heated bucket (like I did when I was breaking ice after I forgot to plug it in) don't throw it out!  Get a tube of Shoe Goo and repair the crack.  I repaired a large three point crack and it's good as new.  Let it cure for at least 24 hours before filling with water.

Ammonia will take out iodine that you spill on your favorite towel!  Wash within 24 hours (after that it only lessens the stain).
