Thanks for the warm welcome. Nice to meet you Jones Family. Our Nigerians are more than just "livestock" to us too! My website is almost complete and I will...
Hello Leea and the Jones family, I guess this is a good time to make my official intro! I am Kim Miller from Cambridge, Ohio. I just purchased my first ...
Silly me, I hit "enter" to start a new paragraph and it submitted my post before I finished it. Sorry! Leea, I'm not all that far from Granville so maybe we'll...
Nice to meet you Kim. I would really like to meet and talk goats. I work from home and my two boys are in school so I am pretty flexible. I attached my...
Leea....I would love to view your website...but it freezes shortly after it opens....what am I doing wrong? Thanks Christina The Jones Family from Indiana...
After 11 hours, I'd think a message I sent would show up, but since it hasn't, here it is: Kim has Merce - Buttin'Heads Mercerised Cotton, Harris Tweed's...
Buttin'Heads Harris Tweed. Has he bred any does for you yet? I have his sister, Buttin'Heads Mercerised Cotton (aka Merce). She's a very spoiled girl, I love...
Well, I suppose it`s time I introduce ourselves. We are Bob and Barb Morris and we live in Keyser, WV. We have owned goats for most of our lives, but started...
When I started breeding my nigerians back in 2005 we always hand- bred our does without too much trouble with them settling the first time around. The...
I waited a couple of day to give someone else a chance to answer, but since no one else did, here I spout off again ;-): There can be a lot of reason for does...
Thanks Sue, but I can understand a doe here and there having cystic ovaries, but I`m not talking about one or two goats. More like seven to ten does. They are...
Keep us informed; we can all always learn something new. I know it's very common for does to short-cycle once or twice in the late summer / early fall, then...
My favorite hoof trimmer for NDs is the Fiskars Ultimate Craft Shears. Listed as such, you can often find them for under $12 including shipping on eBay. Oddly,...
I want to say hello and introduce ourselves! We are Proctor Hill Farm located in Lunenburg MA. We have been breeding Nigerian Dwarf Goats for about 2 years...
Sue, are there not some mineral shortages that can lead to low fertility in a buck? I can never remember which ones they might be. I thought I'd ask rather...
Yeah, things can get really overpriced when they are marked for goats and sheep. I misplaced my hoof trimmers and my husband (who doesn't pay attention to how...

Hi Gang. I am currently a member of AGS. I know there are a few different registeries. Is it beneficial to join additional registries and which ones...
My brain needs some stretching, although I fear it's lost much of its elasticity and might snap at any moment. <g> From what I can find, zinc deficiency is...
In alphabetical order, here are the registries I know of which register NDs: American Dairy Goat Association (ADGA) - The largest and most active dairy goat...
The buck I was concerned about was on the thin side going into breeding season, but he had been copper bolused, injected with BoSe, wormed with ivermectin,...
I use the goat mineral by Manna Pro in the 8 lb. orange bag. The goats seem to either love it or they need something so much that they empty their mineral...
Hi Kim, I`m not familiar with the goat mineral made by Manna Pro, but goats will go through minerals at different rates at different times of the year. They do...
Hi Gang. As you know I am new to all this. Am I safe buying a doe with registration papers but she is not tattooed in her ear? [Non-text portions of...
