Nigerian Dwarfs versus Mini Nubians - What's the Difference?

Our Nigerian Dwarfs are registered with ADGA and AGS. Our Mini Nubians are registered with MDGA but can be cross registered with TMGR. Doelings and bucklings come with registration applications, which you will fill out and submit to the appropriate registry. Wethers are not registered. Adult goats come with registration certificates.

​Nigerian Dwarfs average 75 lbs and 17-23.5” at the withers. They are the size of a medium sized dog.
​Mini Nubians average 100 lbs and 23-31” at the withers. They are the size of a large (not giant) dog.
Some individuals are smaller and some are larger. Males are generally a bit larger than females.

We occasionally get questions from people about African Pygmy goats, which we do NOT breed. Pygmies and Nigerians are the same size and both make good pets. Pygmies are meat goats so they are stockier and Nigerians are dairy goats and thus more refined. Pygmies come in only shades of black, grey and brown, whereas Nigerians come in a wide variety of colors and coat patterns. Pygmies only have brown eyes. Nigerians can have brown or blue eyes.

Important Information

Goats do not make good house pets. They are farm animals. They can NOT be housebroken and they are very messy animals. While they are very cute and entertaining they will make a terrible, stinky mess all over your house and get into everything. Please do not place a deposit on our goats if you are not allowed to have them where you live or if you do not have a suitable and safe (from predators) outdoor place to keep them. Reservation fees will not be refunded nor can goats be returned to us if Animal Control comes knocking at your door because you tried to sneak farm animals in the city. Goats are noisy and you will get caught!

All of our baby goats are disbudded. We do not make any exceptions. We do not sell goats with horns for their safety and well being as well as yours, your children's and your other animals'. Wethers are banded free of charge. Does and bucks are microchipped for registration and Scrapie ID purposes and come with registration applications. Adult goats come with registration certificates unless being specifically sold without papers.

We manage our herd as holistically and naturally as possible, therefore we do not vaccinate our herd with the CDT vaccine. Instead we focus on excellent nutrition and proper management to keep our goats healthy. New owners can obtain the CDT vaccine at any feed store if they would like their goats vaccinated. We do not routinely deworm our goats as this can lead to dewormer resistance. We only deworm based on fecal results or clinical signs. We do give age-appropriate Cocciodosis prevention and treatment and we treat immediately with antibiotics and other necessary medications at any sign of Pneumonia or other illnesses.

New owners should be aware that goats are VERY susceptible to stress, including stess from weaning, rapid weather changes and going to a new home. Stress can cause goats to be more susceptible to illness, especially pneumonia and parasites. Stressed goats can get sick very quickly. Learn what to watch for and have a good small ruminant vet and/or medications on hand before bringing home your goats! See our website for more information and resources on goat health. You should find your veterinarian BEFORE you bring home your goats.

We dam raise most of our kids as it's healthier and more natural for them and their dams. We only bottle feed kids that can’t or won’t nurse, rejected kids or some kids from large litters. We handle the kids as much as possible to make them friendly but some goats are naturally shyer than others and with a large herd we simply can't handle all the kids as much as we would like. It’s your responsibility to tame your baby and we ask that you are patient with your new goat when you get them home. If they are shy at first they will come around in time if you are patient and kind to them. We highly encourage positive reinforcement training methods, including Clicker Training.

Please see our Sales Policy Page for more information.
