Our friend managed to get about 1/4 cup of milk from our Mama Goat. She put up a little fight at first, but eventually calmed down. I do plan to do more research about milking goats, but I welcome any tips you may share.

We've had milk goats before. Our milkers were already used to being milked, so it was easy to milk them by hand. Do you have a stand with a feed bucket in front of it? Feeding them while you milk distracts them in a good way.
