25+ years of raising goats. From Angora, Cashmere, Boer, Pygmy, and Dairy! Dairy goats became our focus after starting the first Grade A Raw Milk dairy in Idaho in 2010. We currently raise 4 of the standard dairy breeds - Alpine, Guernsey, Nubian, Toggenburg - registered with ADGA, and Guernseys dual registered with ADGA and BGS. Breeding for sound, show quality stock with correct breed characteristics, and long, level lactations. We do participate in Linear Appraisal every couple years, or as offered in our area, to watch the herd's progress. Not on DHI at this time, and does are not fed or pushed for top production, but barn records track each doe’s average daily milk production.
The herd is disease free with individuals tested as needed for CAE/CL/Johnes/TB/Brucellosis. Kids are raised on a strict disease prevention program; pulled immediately at birth, away from the main herd, and fed only pasteurized milk/replacer. The herd is raised as natural as possible. We feed farm grown or local sourced non-GMO alfalfa and grass hay, minimal grain which is mixed right on the farm using only non-GMO ingredients, and our own custom mineral/vitamin mix for optimal health. Few vaccinations are given - antibiotics are rarely needed.
Thank you for your interest in our dairy goats! Feel free to contact us anytime with any questions or to pre-order kids, purchase stock, or about our breeding services!

Swind Plymouth
Purebred Golden Guernsey buck
About the Guernsey Dairy Goat
Swind Plymouth was purchased in 2008, as the foundation buck for the Guernsey goats in our herd. Loved his sweet gentle nature and the quality of offspring he produced. Plymouth passed away at 12 1/2 years of age. His paternal brother, Moe, joined the herd in 2014 and is putting the same superior stock on the ground.
We have found the Guernsey breed to very gentle, easy going animals. Their milk is rich and creamy with moderate production.
The Guernsey dairy goat was developed using genetics from the rare Golden Guernsey Goats, an official dairy breed registered with the British Goat Society.
Guernseys are medium in size. The ears are erect and often set slightly lower than Swiss breeds. The hair may be long or short and should be shades of gold, ranging from very pale flaxen cream to deep russet or bronze.
Sale Terms
All goats are sold as is. All sales are final. We do our very best to disclose the complete history on each animal and any/all known health conditions or defects.
Any testing (kids must be at least 4 months of age for an accurate CAE test) may be requested by the purchaser, with all costs paid by the purchaser (except for CAE testing on adult goats if a recent test has not been done within 6 months), before the animal leaves our farm.
Deposits placed on animals to hold are non-refundable except in the case where the animal should die while still in our care (board fees may still apply). Any emergency vet care to be paid by purchaser/owner of animal. Board fees often apply with holding. Pick up date must be stated and animal picked up by said date, unless extension is agreed upon by both parties, or sale will be canceled and all moneys lost.
Kids that develop genetic defects (such as hermaphrodite) will be replaced (kid of same value) when we have another available (original kid must be under 2 years of age). A written statement from the buyer and a licensed vet stating findings is required, and registration papers must be returned.
Kids, and occasionally older goats, are often sold with registration applications only. All registration and transfer of ownership costs are the responsibility of the purchaser. Guernseys registered with the British Goat Society will be registered upon sale by the seller and registration fees paid by seller.
All transportation fees, including health certificates where needed/requested, are the responsibility of purchaser. Kids may be ground shipped, see below for details/costs.
We can accept cash, checks, money orders, or PayPal (as family/friends only) as payment for goats. Cash or immediate PayPal deposits only accepted at pick up. All goats must be paid in full before leaving the farm. Payments may be made but board fees will apply.

Please note once we have checked the kid(s) in for their transport we can
not be responsible for their well being or safe arrival.
Tips for the less stress possible on the kid: Be sure to pick up kids immediately at arrival. Have a warm bottle prepared to offer and take straight home and settle into their new pen with a buddy of their same size if possible (with following farm protocol for new purchases). Watch for any sign of sickness and treat immediately.
Goat Semen
Pick up at the farm. Shipper must be provided to ship. Many of the bucks have been used and produced quality kids. Bucks/straws with known lower motility is noted.

Pack Goats
Large framed Alpines, Guernseys, and Guernsey/Toggenburg cross are offered as pack prospects. They are selected based on size and structure at birth, and parents size and temperament. We have also raised up a few of the kids to train and enjoy ourselves, but lack of space for adult wethers with horns prevent us being able to keep to adults. Started yearlings are offered as we have available.
Alpine kids raised and sold in 2023
Guernseys raised and sold in 2024
Getting Started with Newborn Kids
Once eating well and going strong, they are moved to the kid nursery and trained to lambar buckets. Milk is always in front of the kids to prevent over-eating. Buckets are filled several times per day with warm milk. Oil of Oregano or garlic powder is added daily as a Coccidia and Enterotoxemia prevention.
At about a month old the kids make another move to large outside pens where they are put on a cooler lambar. Milk will be decreased to set feedings when they are about 2 months old, to encourage hay and grain consumption. They will be weaned off all milk by 2 1/2 to 3 months of age.
Pedigreed Creme D'Argent Rabbits
Rabbits were added to the farm in 2024. Breeding stock and meat is available.
Raised off the ground to control parasites and diseases. They are fed a farm-mixed non-GMO feed with Organic Modesto rabbit pellets, plus plenty of hay, sunflowers, willow tree cuttings, comfrey leaves, carrots.
Rabbits can be viewed in the link below. Litters born winter-spring.
Miniature Donkeys
2026 the farm welcomed a large herd of mini donkeys from Texas. Bred for pets only, the herd is not registered. Babies are born in the spring/ summer and may be available for purchase after weaning in the fall.
Kids are pulled from the doe immediately following birth for disease protection, and fed heat-treated goat colostrum collected from our herd, for 24 hours following birth. A human baby bottle with latex straight nipple is used.
