Twin goat does for sale (Rosalind and Celia) $400 for the pair, must go together Details: • Born March 12, 2014 • Bred for nutrient-dense, grassfed milking in W. Washington or Oregon • 3rd generation of biodynamically cared for goats • Mixed breed - “easy keeper” milkers. Nubian and Oberhalsi mix, Boer buck grandfather. • Selling because we have enough milking does for our family and property. Here are some of the ways they’ve been cared for: • Closed herd, CAE, CL and Johne’s free. • Full access to mother’s milk for first 3 weeks of life. Have been separated at night since 3 weeks of age, spending days with their mother after we milk in the morning, so they’ve had the advantage of nursing for the long term. • Advanced Biological Concepts free choice minerals throughout gestation and since birth. • Rotationally grazed/browsed with organic hay and Chaffhaye as supplementary feed. • They have NOT been disbudded. Horns are a part of the goat’s heat regulation system, and disbudding challenges the immune system. These does have been handled daily by our children since birth, as has their mother, who also has horns. We have not found horns a safety issue for people or other goats, and have had both horned and disbudded goats together in our herd. • Dr. Paul’s CGS herbal wormer given monthly. Fecal samples of herd have shown this effective. • Our best producers are twin does because they are always with their closest companion.
