Boer Goats

Boer goats are long, large framed, double muscled and bred for meat and hardiness. They produce more muscling in less time than many other goat breeds. Boers are commonly white with a reddish brown head and white blaze down the middle of their face. However, paints, solids, polka dots and speckled Boer are becoming increasingly popular. They have a broad head and Roman nose. Long ears hang down along their faces and horns generally curve back. Mature males can weigh 200 to 350 pounds and females between 120 and 200 pounds. Boers goats originated in South Africa were not sold in the US until the 1990’s!

Never in a million years.......

...did we think that we would ever be raising goats! We adopted two little bottle bucks about 4 years ago. They were not in the best of shape but we had to give it a go. Not knowing to much about goats at the time, we brought them back to health, castrated them and let them have run of the farm. They became more than just pets, they were constant companions. They were the most traveled goats I had ever heard of. Since my husband and I compete in endurance rides, they came along and camped out with the horses and dogs. When they didn't come, we were always asked where they were! They have been to Florida 3 times, Tennessee, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan! They loved to travel!

"Hercules" and "Twister"

Then came the third goat...another bottle baby rescue. A doe this time! We suddenly owned three goats. They shared a run with the chickens and didn't mind a bit! We had learned a great deal more about goats by this time. We knew the two little wethers were Saanen dairy goats and the little doe was a Pygmy cross.

Then.......... as you may have suspected, we got hooked!

I was looking to buy some chickens from an ad I saw up at a local hardware store and when I arrived, I found out they also raised goats. These goats didn't look anything like mine. They had long ears and were as cute as could be. Well, I was now in the market for some Boer goats! I owe a great deal of gratitude to Betsy Muehleip for introducing me to this wonderful breed and her continuous help and encouragement! Without this remarkable mentor and exceptional friend, we would not be where we are today!

Sadly both Hercules and Twister have left us but their memories always make us smile. They were not dealt the best hand when they were born but both lived life to the fullest and loved every minute of it! They are missed every single day!

I guess the rest is history! We have just finished a very busy and successful kidding season. Even though we had some rough weather (temperatures 35 degres below zero!), everyone is doing great and ready for spring! Please check out the goats for sale. Keep checking often as new pictures are posted.
