Jane is a lighter colored clone of her dam with better breed character. She freshened with an udder that has longer, easy to milk teats and a smoother foreudder than her dam (both traits I hoped to improve with this breeding). Her sire, Spice, tends to blend well with Moonbeam daughters (see Lady for a prime example). Jane's udder is perfectly lovely with incredibly soft texture, perfectly sized teats for handmilking and large orifices. It is snugly attached with a good foreudder. Jane is also staying quite TINY like her dam (24.5" at 2yrs old). Jane has beautiful, long, floppy ears and a slightly roman nose. Her personality is very quiet and sweet.

I was REALLY hoping for a doeling from this breeding and was excited to have a set of twin doelings to choose from. Morning Glory is jet black like her parents, has nice breed character for polled and nice conformation. Her sire's side has many very heavy milkers with high butterfat. On the dam's side is also a lot of milk with beautiful udders. Morning Glory is polled like her sire. Morning Glory freshened with a very nice udder that is capacious, buttery soft, very nice medial and teat placement and great rear udder height and a smooth foreudder. Overall VERY pleased with her udder.

Dreamy is a sweet little ff yearling doe. Her conformation is very nice with a long body, level topline, strong feet and legs. Her little FF udder is looking really promising. Dreamy's dam, Daydream, has the same beautiful conformation and is the only daughter we have of our amazing buck, Dreamer that we lost way too young. Dreamy's sire, Denver brings new bloodlines to our herd with good production and conformation. He has done well at improving width and strength on his kids.

G6S Normal by parentage

Charm is a daughter of the Amazing Comet who has thrown many incredible kids. Her dam is the first daughter of our Wonderful Farms doe, Candy bred to the buck we brought in from AZ, Mini Ranch BC Desert Thunder +B. Her dam, Taffy, had a lovely udder that has snug  attachments, especially foreudder, good capacity and easy to milk teats. Charm has lovely conformation with a ton of length good depth, beautiful breed character and as a bonus, is polled! She took a looooong time to get bred - apparently she didn't like our bucks. In spite of living with a buck every winter (when I could never catch her in a standing heat) she didn't take until she was almost 4! Her ff udder as a 4yr old is AMAZING! Super capacious, snugly attached and very easy to milk.

We usually sell out of Miniature Nubian doelings and sometimes bucklings before they are born so the best way to be sure of getting a mini dairy goat from us is to check out the breeding schedule page and place a deposit.  If we do have any available after all deposits are filled, they will be listed here.  We are taking deposits for next year now.


A word on the pricing of the mature milkers... I figured the cost of raising a doe from 8 weeks to kidding age (either 1 or 2 years) and it is easily $350.  When purchasing an adult milker, you are getting the added benefit of having that first freshening behind them - they have the risk of the first birth behind them.  Plus, she has been trained to the milkstand, you KNOW how she milks and what her udder is like (a kid is always a gamble), AND you will be getting milk immediately.  With good quality milk at easily $10/gallon (the horrid stuff at Walmart is $16/gallon!), the doe will be paying for herself quickly.
