Mini Nubian Dairy Goats

Part Nigerian Dwarf, part Nubian; Mini Nubians offer the best of both worlds – they’re generally smaller than standard Nubians, and produce almost as much milk (sometimes more) that is sweeter and loaded with butterfat from their Nigerian Dwarf heritage. That extra butterfat makes Mini Nubian milk excellent for goat milk products; such as soap, cheese, yogurt, and ice cream!

We scoured the whole country in search of the best Mini Nubians to start our herd with. After combing through the MDGA show and milk award sites to find the breeders and lines with consistent wins, we stalked their websites, pedigree info, reviews, and social media presences to see whether our herd goals & values align with theirs. We’ve got a few more goats on our wishlist (and always will haha), but we believe that we have some of the best Mini Nubian genetics in the country and are SO excited to work with them!

Our top goals, more or less in order, are:

1. Herd with zero history of the major diseases
2. Friendly but not pushy personality, and respectful towards people – even in rut
3. Longterm health and vitality
4. Well-attached udders and decent-sized teats that hold up over a lifetime
5. Lots of milk and/or butterfat
6. Nice overall conformation

Every year, we have a limited number of Mini Nubian dairy goats available, registrable through MDGA and/or TMGR. We focus on actual important things like personality, health, udders, and conformation before the flashy stuff, but we do have some goats who have moonspots, are polled, and have blue eyes. There’s around a 50% chance that their offspring would inherit those traits.
