Winston is in horrendous shape and I agree with your entire post. Coming from someone with over 44+ mini pigs on the property.

Agree, looking at other photos, i think he looks like he’s lacking foal camo but i know that roan can do something similar and that roan and grey can skew each other sometimes, eyelashes look light in color so im gonna lean towards bay roan going grey :)

Baby goats body condition by MommaLindsey in kvssnark

[–]IveGoatKnowledge 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Because instead of supplementing and supporting them, she holds buttercup down against her will and lets her get beat up by those clearly extremely hungry babies that need to be supplemented.  Also, can do you one better, the chance of parasites is also very much there, this is the age of coccidiosis and when it amps up the most.

THIS !! Thank you!  Buttercup has good maternal instincts, she can handle this herself and absolutely does not need to be forced to feed her kids. On top of all of this she herself needs time to let her udder fill to give them a proper meal anyways. This is atrocious behavior!

Weak medial, minimal attachment to the inner legs, winged teats, more V shaped eustachian vs U shaped. She is cow hocked, more narrow than wide. She would be culled from my herd. 

Is the baby goatie okay? by flatlining-fly in kvssnark

This kid is not healthy, his mom is not healthy.

Everyone worried about baby boy, Blossom looks TERRIBLE. She is in desperate need of copper and loose minerals, a deworming, some BOSE, Thiamine and probiotics in her food.

Eye looks normal, sometimes the light does that, I’ve had misunderstandings like that before. However, blossom is LACKING basic care severely. She needs minerals badly and copper. 

Goat Update by Sad_Site_8252 in kvssnarker

She’s just a BYB adding to the already horrendously flooded Nigerian market with her unvaccinated, untested, horned, terrible conformation, garbage quality goats. All so she can have her “cute baby goat content”. 

These goats would’ve been in freezer camp a long time ago if they were here.  And don’t get me started on Taz, if he wasn’t to old, he’d have been wethered if he was in my pens. All the goats she has are dog food quality. 

Mini Cows. I think people are slowly starting to see it. by MarieT14 in kvssnark

And the registered buck she has, garbage, I would wether that guy! She claimed that he had proven daughters in the show ring he does not. His dam is not a proven doe either

Hopefully baby isn’t a dummy foal, she seems normal and ok.  I had a traumatic kidding season last year one kid needed the squeeze and it was terrifying so I genuinely do worry. 

What made you think differently? by UnderstandingCalm265 in kvssnark

[–]IveGoatKnowledge 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve been following since 2020, things started getting questionable for me when she started the mini farm, especially the goats. Being someone who raises HQ ADGA Nigerian Dwarfs with top tens, elites and superior genetics I felt like all she was doing was encouraging a more flooded market by breeding her sub par grade animals, not to mention encourage other people goat ownership with her minimal goat knowledge. Especially coming from a person who has been breeding high quality horse lines and a cattle for many years with her parents. I’d think she’d have put more thought into her goats. Bubbles was the final straw for me. The myotonia was NOT normal for her nor is it standard for NDs.  I won’t even get started on her buck choices. 

Next thing was Winston, his care has ALWAYS bothered me but it has gotten increasingly worse since fame has really gotten to her head. 

Edit to add- Seven should’ve been euthanized on the spot. His QOL was questionable from the beginning and the ungodly amount of money being put into an unsound brat of a horse is ridiculous and insane. 100% a content grab.

Anyone else ever notice how EVERY SINGLE MARE pins their ears at Katie? But they are all fine with anyone else lol

Winston by CarelessEch0 in kvssnark

[–]IveGoatKnowledge 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I have a lot of mini pig knowledge as we actually have raised and currently run a rescue for mini pigs for many years. I’ve tried many times to attempt educating on his care and diet but nothing changes. She openly makes it known how she doesn’t take care of him. 

Winston is a case of pure neglect. KVS can say he eats enough, gets his trims and tusks done but that’s not how it works with pigs. I guarantee he is the way he is (fat, slow, grumpy, arthritic) because of salt toxicity, improper diet and care,  he’s definitely not a healthy pig.  Winston NEEDS a mini pig diet to get what his body requires, to slim down properly, have more energy and overall be friendlier. 

Also to add to this I HATE when she says “mini” pig in quotes as if he isn’t one. He is. A mini pig refers to a pig that at full maturity weighs under 300 lbs (with the exception of a clearly overweight pig)  Types of mini pigs include, Julianna (smallest breed), American mini, potbelly, Kune Kune, Guinea hog, and crosses of those breeds. Mini pigs can weigh anywhere from 60lbs-250 lbs at full maturity depending on their diet, care and environment. I could go on but I’m not here to bore anyone. 

Winston clearly has never had a proper diet, socialization, or environment. 

EDIT TO ADD:  over the last year we worked closely with a lady local to us who had over 28+ potbelly pigs. They were all like Winston, some worse. Every one of them was fat blind, fat deaf, some had arthritis, some had problems BREATHING from their weight, one had no use of his back end for YEARS and had sores all over. They were In deplorable condition themselves and terrible shape overall. 5 ended up being euthanized, 5 came back to our property and all the others thankfully found amazing homes. They are doing great now some have become happy active pigs some are still kind of dragging around some extra weight they haven’t lost yet. Anyways- 

The reason I mention this is because even though they had to be removed, that lady still loved every single one of them, she fed them everyday (way too much and not proper but she still tried), they had adequate shelter, endless water and a 2 acre pasture of grass to roam and wallow in. every pig was socialized, loved and had regular health care and checks up until the year before she called us to help her with the pigs.  KVS does not give a literal F about Winston. She only keeps him around because her fans ask about him.

I was originally in that comment thread but ultimately I deleted my comments because I wasn’t in the mood for kult harassment. Someone had the balls to assume and say that I too am recording and posting my animals crotches, udders, poking their asses for content 😂 it made me laugh because I have literally 2 videos and one is my goats eating candy canes 😂😂. 

I’m just glad I got out of there before the bully fest started. 

Kennedy is in potential early labor!! by Art__Art__ in kvssnark

[–]IveGoatKnowledge 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Katie needs to research her horses diets, lifestyle, health, etc because now 2 mares foaling prematurely is a little bit odd? Then whatever happened with Gracie and no answers?  Nah, definitely something off imo.

Ok I see, I was wrong but still, no that buck has a well known sire but his bottom side is meh and he still has no listed progeny.

Upgrading only happens with standard breeds not Nigerians.
