Multi-Award Winning Anglo-Nubian Dairy Goat Herd in Aberdeenshire

Our Anglo-Nubian Journey

We moved to our smallholding as it was a great place to have dogs and horses. Then we “rescued” an old goat, got a companion, later got a milker, then started breeding. And then we got an Anglo-Nubian.

Now, we have no dogs, no horses, but a barn full of Anglo-Nubians. They are all unique individuals, intelligent, and with tons of character. The milk is fantastic – nothing like the goats’ milk you can buy in the supermarket. We show our goats (Scotland has good competition), and regularly place highly. We have had multiple goats achieve Breed Champion status, and many more with Breed Challenge Certificates. We take care to ensure that our goats can follow their natural instincts as herd animals by letting them roam together through the day, while ensuring that their individual nutritional needs are met by penning them with their kids at night and feeding each goat with hard feed, herbs, and supplements dependent on size, condition, lactation, and stage of pregnancy, and number of kids, and other factors. Kids are raised with their dams, but bottle fed to ensure there are no problems with feeding or separation when we show.

Keeping our goats healthy and happy is a top priority for us.
