Here you will meet our Pygmy, Nigerian Dwarf, Nubian and Kinder goats. All of our goats are treated as family and are given the best care we can provide. We do not eat any of our goats, nor do we raise any for meat purposes. We do use their milk, and do sell some extra babies as pets or breeders.
We raise only grade animals at the time, simply because we just prefer to raise pets and brush control goats rather than show or market goats.
In regards to the Pygmies, when raising grade animals you can maintain a larger collection of assorted colors than you could if you were raising for show.
I am hoping to bring a registered sundgau Pygmy buckling from PromisedLand lines to the farm this year if all goes well! If "Dudley" comes to the farm, he will be the first registered Pygmy buck at Goats Etc and will be used on grade does for the time being. Depending on how he improves my grades, I may consider bringing in one or two registered does.
However, I still think I will personally favor raising quality grade stock over registered stock... just my personal choice and is in no way a discrimination to the breeders that work so hard to maintain stunning purebred Pygmies.
On April 9th, 2004, we were able to welcome four more Pygmy ladies to the farm. Adults Mindy and Cindy along with their daughters Boots and Josephine, will be a part of the breeding pens in 2005.
If the right buck can be found, Mindy and Cindy may be bred again this fall.
Our small but steadily growing Pygmy goat herd now consists of six beautiful females and soon to arrive one handsome male!
One Pygmy doe is due to kid in August!
When available, we sell our goats for pets or breeders.

HUGE THANKS to Dill's-A-Little Goat Farm for giving us the opportunity to 'lay claim' on little Acorn.
He was born on February 28th, 2004 - just two days after my moms birthday - and is by handsome sire Green Gate Golden Oak *S and out of beautiful doe Bar-K Heidi Marie.
Doc thinks he is a dog.. although he is lacking in the house-training ability. :)
He has been a bottle baby his whole life and is now a 6 week old rambunctious, but very loveable, monster.
He was one of triplets, but was the only survivor.
The little lady at her side is Boots, she was born on April 2nd and is a perfect TINY little alpine-colored doeling.
The little lady at her side is Josephine, she was born on April 2nd and is a perfect TINY little Black Agouti doeling with a splash of white on her side.
Kinders are the offspring of a Pygmy and a Nubian. Scotty was just one week old in this photo, but he is now a strong and healthy 6 week old terror! He stays in the house during the nights with Doc and both of them are bottle fed. Scotty thinks he owns the furniture and can be found jumping off the back of the couch, spring-boarding from the foot stool, or snoozing in the chair.
