Are gas prices keeping you from going to as many shows as you’d like? Have you ever wanted to show your miniature dairy goat, but there weren’t any shows...
Did you know that cobweb can stop bleeding? Or that honey can heal wounds? Or that coffee can give a goat a boost during labor? You can learn about these and...

HI all! I only have 1 ober doe and the hubby won't let me use her to start working on the mini's - which is fine we would like more ob's anyway. But I was...
I'm in WI, but I don't have MiniObers... I don't know anyone in the area with MiniObers. There aren't that many around yet. I tried to convince Karyl of...
Good morning, I am new to breeding Mini Obers and have a question. I realize that in order to work on breed character that sometimes it is necessary to breed a...
Without looking up a rule book, I was told by a board member of TMGR that the offspring will be whatever is the lowest. So if you bred a Nigerian buck to an...
Lyne, Â Thanks so much for your input! I would hope that if one had the Ober breed character already, that breeding back to a purebred Nigerian buck would...
No matter what generation the one mini is, when you breed it back to a Nigerian the offspring would be 1 generation. You can't have a percentage mini out of a...
Yes, it would be allowed. In fact I have a buck that is 3/4 Nigerian and "registered" as F1. He is a handsome fellow and I keep deciding I need to use him...
Wonderful input, thank you so much! There is a lot to think about. I'm also wondering if having a first gen doe that is very small is such a good idea. Have...
Ironically, the only kid weve had to pull was out of the extra large mini. That wasn't even her fault. She was four years old when I got her and supposedly...
There is one other good reason to continue buying F1 minis from Oberhasli breeders that breed all their yearlings to a good Nigerian buck. We get the best...
Those big white splashes can sometimes happen in a purebred Oberhasli. I saw 2 such does being shown as Recorded Grades, even tho they were infact many...
I have noticed this too. I was able to breed my buck to some awesome junior Obers. It helped the Ober breeder to get her young juniors fresh so that she...
I like what you said, "I like them just they way they are." What more could we ask? If it looks and tastes like chicken... ^_^ I agree that I am making...
Wonderful input, thank you so much! There is a lot to think about. I'm also wondering if having a first gen doe that is very small is such a good idea. Have...
Thanks for this information, Andrea. I have noticed that the 1st generation does have great ribbing and lots of body depth. I guess this might be a factor. ...
Dang, doesn't this conversation make you want to look at each others herds?!?!? Why do we have to be so far apart? I haven't posted a current photo on my...
Good morning mini lovers I think a factor in ribbing and body depth might be a similar look between Lynes and Sharons 1st gen since all their dams excel in...
Well, you SHOULD be proud of the effect your Mother Ship Oberhasli does have had on the mini breed. ^_^ When the F1s, like from your herd, are so good, it...
