Rock Ridge Show Goats

10/07/2026

It's a good day when the judge asks: Where did that goat come from?" and the answer is "Rock Ridge!"

Congratulations Caleb on grand champion wether at the Adams Co. Fall Showdown!

Caleb also had a top 10 overall wether dam, he & Scarlett also finished in the top 10 of their showmanship class, and participated in a fitting contest (results pending). Check out those awesome looking legs that Caleb & Scarlett put together!

It's been a wild summer!

We closed the books on our breeding season this weekend. We're looking forward to babies starting Thanksgiving weekend through mid-February!

In addition to the expanded kidding season, we've also expanded our buck line-up. This year we'll have our first kids from MapQuest (Kracken x Trip Advisor), Cash (Hashtag x Nas), and Pirate Dan (Juju x P67).

We've also added to our doe lineup with genetics that include Frank x Tag Team, Castle x Unfinished Business, Blown Fuse x Long Distance, Long Distance x Cat Daddy, and High Elevation x About Time.

Kracken is the sire of our keeper buck, MapQuest. His sire, Nas, sired many champions for us. He has a great personality and throws nice kids. If I didn't already have a son of his, he would definitely be on my farm.

Different Versions of Success ❤️🐐

For the exhibitors who buy our goats, buckles and banners are their goal - and we love helping them achieve it! But as a farm, our goal is entirely different. Our success is measured by provision.

Our mission is to provide competitive market goats at a reasonable price. Selling mid-range show goats at a set price is dying out, but it is exactly how we built our own success in the ring. We intentionally keep our animals priced as low as we can because we want to open doors for families who might otherwise never get the chance to step into the show ring with a nice goat. Our job is to give them the opportunity and then support them through the project.

We recently received this note from one of our showmen, and it perfectly captures what true success looks like to us.

If success means building a supportive barn family, keeping youth agriculture accessible, and teaching life lessons that outlast the show ring... then we are exactly where we want to be. I hear a lot of whispers on how I need to step up to the next level, but I feel like I am filling a need and I am working with purpose so I’m perfectly content right here.

To all our farm families: thank you for letting us provide for your journey. We’ll keep raising the goats, and we’ll keep cheering you on as you chase those banners!

When our goats are born, I watch them and handle them regularly. I see personality patterns and growth potential and I start thinking about who would be the right type of showman for each one.

When the barn finally opens for sales, I watch every single kid handle the goats, I talk to their parents, and then I recommend the a placing from one of our goats or I send them to someone who may have a better fit.

The Hendrix family have bought goats from us for several years so I already follow their progress, and as soon as this goat started developing I started thinking about Kate. Turns out Kate and Kirby (Joint Custody x Castle) were the perfect fit for each other and they've been collecting novice showmanship banners all summer!

I love it when a plan comes together. 😃

If anyone is interested in some pet quality does, I have three available. They are all healthy and friendly, but I don't recommend breeding them for various reasons. I will try to get some pictures and details later today.
