Our Mission
We are a small family focused on the joy and fulfillment of raising and breeding high quality, friendly Nigerian Dwarf and Myotonic goats.
2021 Kidding ~ April
Dams all checked out in perfect health after a wellness check in January and again in March from Doc Hodges! Ultrasounds showed all five does are expecting.
Our Commitment
We pay strict attention to our herd's dietary needs, health, cleanliness, social needs, and well-being. Our goats' personal Veterinarian, Doctor Hodges (https://www.swissfarmvet.com ) visits us regularly, administers all testing and vaccinations, and provides invaluable advice. He most recently performed ultrasounds on all five of our does. We are proud to announce, they are all expecting kids this spring.
Upcoming and Exciting News
We currently have three fine goat sheds. All three were custom made; one for the does, one for the bucks, and one for kidding. We are excited to announce we will begin construction, after the 2021 kidding season, on a new barn.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are your goats registered?
A: Absolutely! We register all our Nigerian Dwarf kids through the American Dairy Goat Association and all our Myotonic (Fainting) Goats through the Myotonic Goat Registry.
Q: Are your kids socialized?
A: This is our favorite part of doing what we do ~ Socializing every single one of our goats and kids. We invite you to frequently visit to help us with this crucial job.
Q: Do you have a waiting list and is there a deposit required?
A: Yes, we have a waiting list at all times. We do not accept deposits until our kids are here and you've had an opportunity to visit, observe, and decide on the kid/s of your choice. At that time, we ask for a 50%, non-refundable, deposit.
