Nigerian Dwarf Goats

Nigerian Goats are a smaller package of the big goats. They eat less, take up less space and produce a high fat, high quality milk. While not as much volume as the big goats, their milk makes an excellent cheese.

















Their diet includes alfalfa hay, bermuda hay, Lakin Lite pellets ( mix of alfalfa and bermuda), grain when in milk and sunflower seeds. They are great weed eaters and love to forage.

Does have 1-6 kids and it is anyone's guess what color they will be!

Cheeses I have made from the milk include cottage cheese, feta, mozzarella, chevre and cream cheese. After a few days, from the cooled milk in the fridge, the fat comes to the top. I skim this off and freeze and later use the cream to make delicious caramels! You can also make butter from this!
