The spring production explosion of animals means that Shepherd's Gate, a small mini-farm of just 2.4 acres, has the following grade dairy goats for sale:

 

Blackie is a 2 yr old nubian in milk, 2nd freshener as of March 20th, $150

Rachel is a 1 yr + first freshener 1/2 alpine, 1/2 Nubian  $150

 

Honey is a small 2 yr old Nubian who I milked all last season steady, but low production, excellent disposition and good starter nanny for low cost.  She gave me twin bucklings last month, but I was worried about her condition and so dried her up.  $75   She'd be a good companion to one of the above milkers for someone looking to get into their own milk supply and would be fine to breed again, she gave us a single kid the first year and has had no delivery problems whatsoever.

 

Tinkerbell, less than a year old unbred nanny,  $50

 

Two  5 week old bucklings (I will wether them at 8 weeks) mostly nubian  $40 each.

 

Some of you may have heard a bit of my goat milk testimony, but for those who may not be familiar with it already:  A little over 4 yrs ago, our special needs daughter passed away after a long fight of 6 yrs.  During one of the last marathon hospitalizations we had a leak develop beneath the kitchen sink due to not being home and not having a pressure gauge on the main line.  This allowed a major mold problem to develop and I was really sick for about 8 months seeking help from  MDs, dermatologist, and finally an ENT.  I gave up on them helping me recover after the final doc simply refused to look at food issues and told me I had to come in for allergy shots due to one of the problems being systemic candida albicans.  I'd had enough of the drugs that did not work and said 'no thank you, now  I'll seek natural healing methods'.     Somehow I found out about enzymes and the weston a price foundation which led to Patient Heal Thyself and kefir... That led to me sourcing a local supply of goat milk and making kefir from it.  The relief I recieved from goat milk kefir was within two days as miraculous peace came back into my body.  My nervous system had seemed as if it was on constant overdrive as I felt over-stimulated ALL the time;  the kefir made me feel that normal calm feeling that had been gone for almost a year from my life.  I was convinced I must have my own goat milk supply and within about 6 months was blessed with my first two goats in milk. 

 

Now I drink  kefir daily and twice daily fresh raw goat milk right after it is strained for the optimum nutrition.

 

Blessings,
