BACKGROUND

We started with a young herd of goats, but have added several adults to strengthen the depth of our breeding program. We are striving to breed goats with overall good dairy character, good milking qualities, and pleasant personalities. We are members of ADGA (American Dairy Goat Association), AGS (American Goat Society), and NDGA (Nigerian Dwarf Goat Association). We participate in shows to learn more about this wonderful breed and compare our animals to other high quality Nigerian Dwarf Goats. We will go through the linear appraisal process with ADGA in 2008. This will guide us in making management decisions in our overall breeding program.

BREEDING PHILOSOPHY

As breeders, it is our goal to assist in improving the overall Nigerian Dwarf Goat breed. All Nigerian Dwarfs are adorable creatures, but not all should become breeding stock. In order to improve the breed, we believe it is important to be honest. Anyone who buys a goat from us can be assured that we have bred the goat with mindfulness to bloodlines and overall dairy conformity. We will disclose if we do not think a doe has proper breeding potential and we will make every effort to put her in a pet home where she will not be bred. In addition, we will not sell boys as bucks unless we believe they have excellent breeding potential.
