Sometimes crisis strikes and despite our best efforts, we lose a goat. Or sometimes, we move them on to other farms after their work here is done. On this page, view past members of our herd who have had progeny registered under our herdname.
We regret listing and selling Swiss, but we needed funds for hay and she was the only doe listed at a price point that people were interested in paying. We massively undercut ourselves, which will annoy our tax guy, but it is what it is. Swiss is the smartest of all our goats and started out a bit standoffish, but turned into one of our sweetest girls after kidding. Her rear udder height could be a bit better, but she has a really nice U shape and probably the best foreudder of all our Mini Nubians so far. She’s also one of our top 3 Mini Nubian milkers and produced enough to earn her star as an FF! She’s got strong feet that hardly need trimming, although she does have two curved toes. We only chose to list her because her full siblings and all three kids have stayed more or less local to us (and so will she). We also offered to buy one of her daughters if she has one in the spring and if we’re in a better financial position by then.

We adore Candy and she’s another we regret selling, but we had to make cuts somewhere and we’ve retained two daughters! She has one of the best udders we’ve seen, along with great feet and a strong brisket. The ONLY reason we listed her over others is that she is loud and we want our neighbors to like us! She moved on to a homestead with Monkey and with Wylee as his companion.

Wylee came from a stellar pedigree and was super pretty, but he unfortunately was shorted in the genetic lotto – he has split testicles that we were afraid might cause issues. He moved on to a pet home to accompany Monkey, and also Candy!

Possible Hidden Moonspots
Gazelle has gorgeous conformation and super supple udder skin & SUCH nice orifices – she’s got one of the easiest udders to milk out. BUT we’ve been fighting a skin condition since she came here – her breeder was aware about it but didn’t disclose it until we went to pick her up. Whatever the condition is, it makes her flaky and susceptible to mites. The vet thinks it may be something hormonal or a zinc malabsorption issue. She went to a new home as a pet.
