There has been a milking machine for sale on Preloved for the last month or so for £180.... probably needs attention.
It was listed on Preloved goats,  but type in milking machine on preloved and it will probably appear.

That poor goat, what are they trying to do- turn it inside out? that is far too fast.

I think I will stick to hand milking, thank you, rather than that sort of milking machine.

I hasn't looked at the video..... pulsation FAR too fast.   We all know kids can suck fast but I think that was faster !!!!!!!!
