Unlike most goat and sheep breeders who have just a single kidding season, our scattered breeding system allows us to sell our goats year round. We typically have 20-30 does and around 10-15 ewes kidding every four months, with the target of around 40-60 kids and around 20-30 lambs eac hseason, meaning that we frequently have doelings, bucklings, ewe lambs, and ram lambs for sale. We also sell older, ready-to-work bucks/rams and proven does/ewes occasionally, depending on whether we are retaining any kids for our own breeding herd.

​

Our pedigree Dutch Spotted Sheep typically have two lambing seasons per year, and we focus on selling premium Dutch Spotted breeding stock in the spring and summer. However, we occasionally have stock available outside of these times, too, so feel free to reach out to us to learn more.

Generally, most of our pedigree breeding Boer goats and Dutch Spotted Sheep are sold to farms and smallholding in the South West of England. Most of our animals head to wonderful new homes in Dorset, Wiltshire, Berkshire, Hampshire, Somerset, Devon, or Cornwall. However, we also sell pedigree breeding stock much farther afield occasionally. â€‹

About Our Pedigree Boer Goats and Dutch Spotted Sheep

 

Our Boer goats and Dutch Spotted Sheep are bred to be strong and hardy. The foundation of our Boer Goat herd was originally based on commercial bloodlines, and through the careful addition of some of the top show bloodlines in the country, we have now been able to breed Boer goats which are hardy enough to suit a commercial meat goat system while also offering the required characteristics of show animals. Moreover, we focus heavily on commercial viability and hardiness when breeding our Dutch Spotted sheep, helping ensure they will be able to thrive on any rearing system.

​

When we make the decision to sell an animal, generally speaking, it will be for the reason of retaining family members. We try to keep our herd and flock as genetically diverse as possible, which helps to ensure their strength and prevent a small gene pool.
