Hello and thank you for stopping
by my farm! We are located in the
Ozarks of Northern Arkansas. I raise
quality registered dairy goats,
focusing on the nubian breed. I first
got into dairy goats for the wonderful
milk they produce and it has grown
from there.
I strive to breed goats that will
produce, as well as appraise and
show well. I raise my dairy goats
as naturally as I have the ability
and understanding to do so successfully.
I use management and fecals as tools to
greatly reduce the amount of chemical
wormer and coccidiostat used. My goats
are fed locally grown grass hay and have
access to browse for the base of their
diet, with alfalfa hay or alfalfa pellets
added for absorbable calcium and
protein for their milk production
plus enough whole grains to maintain
a healthy weight through lactation.
My goats are also copper bolused every 5 months and fed a high quality mineral from Redmond.
We participated in Appraisal in 2009 and 2011 and plan to continue taking advantage of this program in the future.
Our does are tested yearly for CAE and all remain negative. With the negative CAE status of my herd, I dam raise (however, I will start reserved kids on CAE prevention if buyer prefers this). I feel this is the healthiest and least stressful way to raise kids. As soon as babies are a couple weeks old, they are penned away from mom (but right beside her) overnight and fed a bottle of their mothers milk, raw cow's milk or pastuerized goat milk in the morning before being returned to her, to ensure the babies grow up tame and friendly.
We are currently taking reservations for the 2012 breeding season!
