Item description

We believe we breed handsome animals that conform to the South African Boer Goat Breeders’ Association (SABGBA) breed standards in all respects. One of our main objectives is to breed functionally efficient animals that can perform in the veld with the minimum of inputs. Absolute size and weight (“fatness”) is not the alpha and omega for us, productivity under low-cost conditions is. Fertility, hardiness and mothering abilities are key factors in the success of our stud and we aim to deliver these traits to our clients. Our animal health program is rigourously managed and implemented and the condition of our Boer Goats reflects this. Young kids are grown out on lucerne fields for around three months to minimise predator losses, whereafter they go out to be veld-reared.

We also have merino and dorpper sheeps as well as poultry stock (1 day old chicks, eggs, and a variety of breeds sussex, rocks, leghorns, rhode island red, cornish etc
