Nigerian Dwarf Goats

Great things come in teeny tiny packages!

These tiny goats have HUGE personalities, they have sweet milk that doesn't taste goaty, and they love to eat away at your brush and weeds. 

This mini dairy goat originates from West Africa. The does stand no taller than 17 to 19 inches and the bucks stand no taller than 19 to 20 inches. They average about 75 Ibs at maturity. They come in many fun colors and patterns. Their milk tends to have high butterfat, compared to other standard-sized dairy breeds. 

Our current herd consists of approximately 12 does and 4 bucks. 

Our herd size is always changing as we add new members and sell some to make room for our herd improvements to reach our goals, we try to stay around 10 goats at a time though. 

Our main goals that we are working towards right now are;

1) Larger Milk volumes in our does throughout lactation including longer lactation windows,

2) Animals with correct conformation that meet breed standards,

3) Larger orifices on their udder to improve ease of milking and better udder attachment.

We are currently pulling all babies at birth and bottle feeding them with their dams milk. We will be letting our doelings mature more for first freshenings closer to two years old. 

We also love having a variety of colors and fun extras such as blue eyes, moonspots and polled goats.

Our herd of Alpine goats has tested negative for CAE, we will test for CL and Johne's if we see a need to test. All new goats are quarantined and tested for CAE, CL, Johne's, and Q-fever before joining the rest of the herd. For more herd testing information please visit our herd testing page.

As our does begin to kid, we will do our best to put pictures and information on the Kid page.
