• Breeding meat goats that are productive in the Catskill Mountains of New York State requires a different approach than breeding goats in the Southwestern USA. Our colder and wetter climate, higher elevation, and different geography all combine to present a new set of challenges for the Boer goat farmer.
  • We don’t believe in inbreeding of any kind. Each year, we purchase top quality bucks that bring us a strong crop of kids with new genetic potential.
  • We select our bucks for length, muscle, rate of gain, and sound feet, legs and frame.
  • Brood does are selected for maternal instinct, sound feet and legs, and goats that are productive without a huge amount of treatment.
  • We limit our herd to 20 brood does. This allows us to select the best 20% of each year’s crop as future foundation does.
  • We don’t sell culls as breeding stock. If we sell an animal to you for breeding, it’s because we are confident it is a sound animal.
  • Good genetics is a key to raising healthy goats!



An old-timer, when asked how he could tell where the Catskill Mountains began, once said -
"You keep on going until you get to where there's two stones to every dirt. Then you're there."
