See my Youtube videos below for a tour of our goat mini barn! The first video was taken in July of 2018 that gives specifics on dimensions, organization, etc. The second video was taken in March of 2020 that shows updates and changes that have been made since the first video.
In these videos I make reference to my goat milk stand and lambing jug blog posts

This one is very helpful as well. Our new mini farm doesn’t have a stable or barn on the property yet so this is really valuable to get a short list of the most important aspects and how to lay everything out for a smaller, efficient building.
Certainly doesn’t have to be large or overfly fancy to be efficient!
We are building and doe barn and your barn videos have been very helpful. We are working with items we have on the farm already or can purchase used but I love your setup and have implemented ideas from your barn in our new set up. I know I’ve heard you talk about it but don’t remember the details. How do you have wifi and cameras in your barn? That is something that definitely want to have for next years kidding.
I love using materials we have just lying around. All of our stalls were built from lumber we already had, so I can relate! I have wifi cameras because I have a booster in my house and a booster in the barn. The house booster gets a strong enough signal down to the barn that the booster in the barn then amplifies strong enough that I get a reliable signal on my cameras.
