First try refreshing your browser or try another browser. If that doesn't work, read the following.
All the videos on my website are embedded from Youtube. From what little information I can find Youtube is testing turning off videos for certain users that are not logged into a Youtube account or using a VPN to view videos. If you have a Youtube account, please try logging in and see if you can then view the videos on https://mvotd.com. If you're using a VPN, try turning it off to view the videos. There are a few other work arounds but they are pretty confusing to use. If you have the skills you might try searching Google for "Youtube Sign in to confirm you're not a bot" for a fix. I didn't see any that looked easy. Our best hope is that Youtube completes their test and realizes this is a big mistake. Until then, please check in daily to see if you still getting the error message. Sorry it took so long to figure out what was going on with this. Mel
Description
Everyone always asks where the mamas are when we do videos of just the kids, so this year we thought it would be fun to let the whole herd of 90...yes NINETY GOATS...run together. Happy Summer 2019!!! As herd animals, goats need other goats to be happy. They alert each other with a sneeze if there is a threat, they all run together for pure joy and a mama goat can recognize her kid's voice from up to a kilometer away, proof that their connection matters. For this reason, we only ever sell kids in at least pairs so they go with a friend and we love to watch the goats rest in big piles in the pasture four generations deep! Some people separate the kids from their mothers at birth, that would be inconceivable to us as watching them play together is a huge part of what we love about having goats. Be sure to look for the kids who jump on their mama's backs mid video. In the second part, we let the kids out for a little solo run. (This years group is so big it is hard to keep everyone going in the same direction so it took us quite some time to get them all safe a tucked into their stall after running! ;)
