I've raised goats with my parents since 1999, but starting in 2007 it is now being formed into a productive business.  Our main focus will be on commercial boer goats.  Hopefully you'll like what you see, especially after we have spent a few years selectively breeding our boer goats to meet our standards.  We will be breeding for kidding ease, mothering ability, multiple kids, ability to feed kids, pasture hardiness, and of course growth rate and eye appeal.  I hope to see this well underway by 2010 (a key year for us!).  One trait we like that some folks focused on showing may or may not appreciate, is four clean teats.  Goats raising triplets on two teats often end up with a runt (I know from experience!) and this can be entirely eliminated with good lactating dams that have four clean, functional teats.
