How it all began
Our original herd of 5
|
All it took was a simple peek over a fence at some adorable newborn Nigerians and our interest was sparked. We put in a reservation for 3 kids, 2 doelings and a wether buddy for them. When kidding season arrived the next year, what was 3 became 5 and we found ourselves with our own little starter herd. Since then, we have continued to educate ourselves not only about the breed but the caprine species as well, and we are enjoying every moment of it. Our family farm is located in beautiful Ridgefield, WA.

Our Herd Goals
Here at EzPz Farm we breed purebred, registered Nigerian Dwarf Goats. While it is true that Nigerian Dwarf Goats can come in all sorts of fun color patterns we consider this to just be the "frosting" on our goats. We do not choose our stock based on color. We run a small herd so as to maintain a strong human-goat relationship and continue to raise very sweet and friendly goats. We are proud of the stock we have and are very in tune to their strengths and weaknesses, always looking to improve on them with each breeding season. Our goal for our herd is to produce goats that have correct conformation, nice width with level rumps, and all around excellent mammary systems. We also select heavily for personality. We strive to produce goats that will perform well in the show ring but can also hold their own in the milk pail. We participate in Linear Appraisal and DHIA milk test. Our herd has tested negative for CL, CAE, and Johne's annually for many years, last test 08/2021.
