6E Dairy Barn

We were raising Boer goats to bring meat into the house, but with the cost of milk steadily going up all the time we decided it was time to take a different approach.  So, we sold the Boers and went on the hunt for some good dairy does so that not only could we supply our family with milk for drinking, cheese making, soap and lotion making and for milk for baby animals, but also we would also supply meat with any whethers that were born.  

We're currently only milking 4 does at this time, but our dairy goat herd is sitting around 13 goats currently including our Alpine breeding buck.   

We do offer on the farm sales of raw goat's milk at $4.50 a gallon or $3 for half gallon.  Due to the ever rising cost of feed we've had to raise our price some.  I'm hoping to be able to drop it back down if costs will go down. 

Look for more pictures and info in the coming months! 

 

Here's a few pics of some of our girls.

 

This is Elizabeth.  She's a registered LaMancha/Alpine cross doe.  She'll be bred this fall to our buck Jack.

 

This is Annabelle.  She's registered purebred Saneen.  She'll also be bred this fall.

 

This is Dee.  She is a registered black Oberhasli and is one of the top milking Oberhasli's in the country.  She's also a real sweetheart and we love her.  Thank you Tana McCarter for allowing us to purchase her.

 

This is Jewel.  She is a registered 75% Alpine.  She's a real sweetie with really nice teats.  Thank you Tana McCarter for allowing us to purchase Jewel!

 

This is Zoey. She is registered Oberhasli/LaMancha cross.   She is just a yearling, but she did really well this year as a first freshner.  We'll be breeding her again this fall to Jack.

 

This is Whimsey.  She is registered Saneen/LaMancha cross shown here in her dirty pasture whites.  LOL

She's a good girl and we love her.  

 

And here's the band of up and coming girls for next year.
