Nigerian Dwarf goats for sale: why purchase from Frenchie Farm?
Considering the fact that one can find goats for sale in many areas, what makes Frenchie Farm, located in Illinois, different than other farms? Frenchie Farm has maintained a closed, clean tested herd since 2019. Our goats have tested negative for Johne’s, Caseous Lymphadenitis (CL) and CAE/OPP. All goats are disbudded (if not born polled), and interact socially with the 100+ children enrolled in classes at Frenchie Farm each week. Because kids are dam raised, pending emergency situations, they are not weaned/ready for their new home until 12 weeks of age.
Either myself or my children hand milk does, and all does are bred specifically for ease of milking and milk production. Colleen trains all does appropriate milking behavior on the milk stand. When purchasing goats from Frenchie Farm, you also have access to Colleen as a mentor. Whether you have basic Nigerian Dwarf goat care questions, need help brainstorming ideas for appropriate housing and fencing, or need support building a starter herd for home dairy purposes, Colleen helps set you up for success.
