Henry is our herdsire.  He is a very cute white framed agouti Mini Nigerian cross.  When we got him he was fairly wild but has really tamed down now so that he loves pats, eats from your hand and is pretty well behaved about hoof trimming.  Henry has sired some beautiful kids for us so far - please see our Babies Page link to view them!  

 

Hank is our newest herd member.  He is a Mini Nigerian buckling purchased from a local breeder to supplement our breeding program (as Henry sires mostly white agouti kids and we're looking to add more color).  He should be ready to cover does late spring of 2008.

 

Sugar is a 2002 1/2 African Pygmy doe.  She is a beautiful caramel framed agouti.  Sugar is very tame and sweet.  She really loves having her horns scratched and especially loves feeding time!  Sugar is the herd alpha and bosses all the other goats around.  She has had three kids for us!

 

Marybelle is a brown framed agouti Mini Nigerian doe. Ben is especially fond of this color and hopes she produces more similar to herself.  Kate thinks she has a most distinguished face with her roman nose.  She can be a little standoffish, but once she comes to you she loves her head scratched.  She has one distinguishing mark - a torn ear.  She has produced one buckling for us so far.

 

Annabelle is a super adorable Mini Nigerian doe.  She is a beautiful belted light caramel agouti.  Kate just loves the spotted ones!  She is very, very small and dainty.  She has produced one very typey doeling for us so far.

 

Helen is an Mini Nigerian doe and Carrie's personal goat.  She is a black agouti.  She was partially bottle raised and is the sweetest goat we have!  Ben lets her out when he's gardening and she follows him around like a dog!  If you bend over near a stump or the houses, she will jump onto your back and "play horsie".  Helen's first kid, a white framed billy, died at birth.

 

Holly is a Mini Nigerian doe we are lucky to have as she was nearly purchased by another buyer.  She is a beautiful spotted grey agouti and is so sweet!   She has produced two beautiful bucklings and is the best mother we have!

 

Ben had been eyeballing this doe for a good while at our favorite breeder's place, and finally gave in and purchased her in April 2007.  She is a beautiful tri colored, long haired agouti Mini Nigi.  She has had two gorgeous kids for us so far!

 

Here's a goat that Kate just 'had to have'!  Two Spot is a super cute light cream belted agouti.  She has pink skin and is also polled or buttheaded.  She is very shy put cuddles right up when you finally coax her close.  TS is very small and typey and Kate is hoping she'll pass her belting on to her kids one day.

 

Java is a purebred milking line Nigerian Dwarf doe.  She is a beautiful broken black.  We purchased her bred for February, 2008.  Kate is hoping to milk this doe!  Photo credits:  www.sweetgumminis.com - thanks Ashley!

 

Sarah is a lovely 2005 light caramel agouti Mini Nigi doe.  She is friendly and well put together.  Her udder is very nice, as well.  Poor girl was bred to a Boer buck and still had an upcomplicated birth of a precious little gold headed doeling just after Christmas.  She is an awesome mother!

 

Paula is a very timid and very FAST 2005 Mini Nigi doe.  She was basically a rescue, arriving to us very emaciated.  She is rebounding quickly, and we hope she becomes more people oriented when she realizes we mean food!  Haha!  We believed she was bred when we got her, but have found her to be open.  We might breed her for a late spring/early summer kid if her condition improves well this winter.

 

Her name stands for a number of things:  Little Girl, Little Gimp...you can make things up as you think of them.  LG came to us from a man who doesn't know how to care for goats properly.   She was born of a mother who had a calcium deficiency in a litter of three kids.  The kids were born with soft bones and the owner did nothing to correct this.  As a result, LG has terrible leg deformities.  We bottlefed her and supplemented her until she was finally old and strong enough to eat grains and forage.  She has no idea she is either A) crippled or B) a goat!  She is a real joy and can be a real pain!  We still may need to have her folded leg amputated, this is to be determined by her vet once she has grown a bit more.

 

We owned Oreo for a whopping 2 months.  Purchased for his unusual coloring and the ability to pass this on to his kids (whom we looked over at purchase), he was brought home only to discover he was overly aggressive AND a Houdini.  While here, Oreo covered Helen, Marybelle and Annabelle.  We're expecting January and February kids from these breedings.

 

We currently have six hens at laying age with several pullets growing towards laying.  Our rooster is big bodied and sires very nice offspring.  These are great dual purpose birds!  We sell our eggs for eating at $1.50/dozen if you promise to return cartons or $2.00/dozen if you fail to return cartons.  Hatching egg prices are to be determined.  Live chicks start at $2.00 each and are custom hatched for you.

 

 

We currently only have a pair of this breed.  The hen is a  superb layer offering us an egg a day like clockwork.  Because of this, however, the most eggs I can send via mail is six.  We will be hatching more of this breed to grow our flock.  Once that has happened there should be no problem with an even dozen.  Hatching egg prices are to be determined.  Live chicks start at $2.50 each.
