Welcome to our Nigerian Dwarf Goat page!
All of our goats are Nigerian Dwarf Goats. Nigerian Dwarf Goats are known for their gentle, lovable and playful personalities. We would agree. We find them to be docile, playful loving and curious. They always want to know what we are doing. If we don’t talk to them as we pass by, they start baying all the louder making it impossible to continue past them without adequate affection (which I don’t mind at all).
We love our goats! They make excellent pets as well as livestock. Many people use them for 4-H animals as well. As dairy goats, they produce wonderful sweet milk in surprising amounts for their size. We are excited to get started with milking beginning spring of 2023.
We have excellent milk lines.
We have excellent milk lines from Rosasharn farm in Rhode Island. They came to us from Windy Hill Ranch in Iowa. In fact, all but one of our Nigerian Dwarf Goats came from them. Our herd has continued to grow over the years. It has been an exciting and big move for us. One of the withers came from another farm but is a relative of the goats at Windy Hill. This year we are fortunate to acquire most of the herd from Windy Hill Ranch (a total of 16 new goats on our homestead) including the milk line from Rosasharn. This is an exciting and big move for us! I am a tiptoe-in kind of girl who needs to think about it and ponder moves of this sort, this time it needed to be a jump-in kind of decision. Put me out of my comfort zone, but I am excited about the opportunity! I am ecstatic for the goats to get here! Spending time with them each day is pure joy.
Nigerian Dwarf Goats make great livestock choices, pet, 4-H animals for show, and therapy animals. Check out our kids for sale
We milk our goats after kidding for our own use of raw milk. We also make soap and lotion, cheese and soon gelato.
