This is a small farm in the rural area of Penang Island. Our guide took us to this place that is off the main road. There are lots of green and fruit trees here and there. A few cars were already there and families with children had also come to visit.
Banana and Rambutan
Lemons
Dragonfruit
The goats were penned and visitors were allowed to feed them grass. The children liked doing that although some were not keen when the goats came up close.
The goats that had full udders were released to the place where they would be milked. The farmer let the goats run up a ramp and as the goats began to eat the food he had put into the trough, he brought down the bar which rendered them immobile. This facilitates the milking process. He washes the udders before attaching the lines to the nipples.
They were milked by a machine.
Once the milking was done the goats were released and moved back to their pen while the next lot of goats came up the ramp.
It was quite an interesting visit.
