Goats

ImageWe have a small herd of goats, consisting of pure bred Anglo Nubian goats and Anglo Nubien x Saanen goats.

Anglo Nubian goats originated in England from breeding English Does to African and Indian bucks, to produce a milking goat that could tolerate and thrive in hot, tropical conditions.

Despite popular opinion, goats do not eat everything, rather they will try anything within reach.  The Farm goats are very friendly and love being scratched behind the ears.  Like the English Leicester, the female goat is only fertile for a short period of the year, from late summer to early winter.  Consequently, the adorable kids are born five months later, with the majority born late August to mid October.
