They DON’t Give Milk ! These GOATS have the Softest Down in the World, It is Mined in a Unique Way

These goats are not raised for milk! This is a unique breed of goat that produces the softest and warmest down in the world. The Orenburg goat was bred in the 19th century as a result of selecting the best goat breeds in order to obtain long, soft, fine fluff. This down is associated with a traditional and well-known folk craft in Russia and abroad - the production of Orenburg down scarves. Shawl and headscarf made from goat down of the Orenburg breed are incredibly soft and warm, they warm thousands of people around the world. In this video you will see how goats of the Orenburg breed grow, as well as how their unique fluff is obtained. The video shows young goats experiencing the process of grooming their down for the first time. They do not experience pain despite making loud noises. Goats grow up in comfortable conditions all year round; the only day when they are disturbed by humans is the day when their fluff is combed out of their wool. This process occurs in the spring, when the goats get hot. After the process of combing out the fluff, goats feel more comfortable. This small stress lasts only a couple of minutes, after which the goats continue to graze on the meadow for a whole year and enjoy life. #down #shawl #headscarf #howitsmade #production #agriculture #wool
