Old Beach Farm

06/02/2026

I know I said it earlier this season about reducing the herd numbers...well I am (not) ready to share. I have updated my available list. If you want more pictures, videos, or details, let me know.
I am including all first fresheners...I know...but reducing numbers and seeing the babies this year, I have decided to keep a few and hope I can find some incredible homes with people who want MILK! I am so thrilled by what Rainmaker did...maintained/increased milk in first fresheners...so these girls should mature really nicely!
Trying to find my balance...my farm hand going off to college, loosing my job of 7 years, working a temporary odd hour job, and just trying to work out all the pieces. Please share with anyone you think might be interested.

Old Beach Farm is located in Craftsbury, Vermont. Raising ADGA registered Nigerian Dwarf goats. ADGA Performance Herd. DHI tested monthly DNA tested ​Linear Appraised Our herd is CAE and Johnes...

It’s been a crazy busy week. 3 of the 4 first fresheners kidded. All bred to Tonic.
Sunkist had a buck kid and due to many conflicts, she is raising him right now, I will be separating soon to try to see udder and be ready for milk test. 🤦‍♀️
Juice Box had a nice little doe.
And Zinfandel had 2 very large twin bucks!
Appletini is last to kid next week.

Then some final decisions to get my numbers to where they need to be! 🐐🐐
