For Sale or Hire

BUY a registered meat goat for a pet, for brush control, or for an agricultural exemption tax write-off.
Prices range between $50 to $450

HIRE our goats for BRUSH AND WEED CONTROL,
vegetation management to clean land without having to purchase herbicides or hiring equipment and operators to clear brush
and reclaim lands that have become unable to support cattle at an acceptable production level.
"Goats possess a unique characteristic that separates them from almost all other types of livestock.
They would rather eat brush and weeds than grass because they are browsers, whereas cattle are grazers.
Browse makes up approximately 60 percent of a goat's diet but only about 10 to 15 percent of a cow's."

Clear unwanted growth such as, willow, pigweed, thistles, stinging nettle, curly dock and many more.
Goats also consume seed heads of grasses that are often ignored by cattle.
Goats like to forage on Rye, wheat, and annual ryegrass, bahia grass and pearl millet.

Create a browse line on the property within days.
A browse line is beneficial because one can actually see through the lower portion of the brush from five feet down to the ground.
It also allows sunlight to penetrate, which permits grass to grow under the brush and around trees.
Work great with cattle as well as most animals.

 USE GOATS TO MAKE MONEY AND LOWER COSTS by Bruce Anderson - Extension Forage Specialist
Are weeds and brush stealing your pasture profits?  
Interested in turning these money robbers into valuable resources?  
Stay tuned and learn how.
 
What do leafy spurge, yucca, cedar trees, and musk thistle all have in common?  
All are plants we often consider to be undesirable in our pastures.
A couple are even called noxious weeds.  And they all are difficult and expensive to spray and kill.  
But they also might be a valuable, untapped resource.
How?  Well, leafy spurge, yucca, cedar trees, musk thistle, and many other weeds and brush are the preferred feed of goats.
Now don’t go turning off your radio.  
I know many of you would never ‘lower’ yourself to grazing goats.  
But maybe it’s time we reevaluate our bias and figure out how to best use our grazing lands.
Drought will often weaken grasses and lead to an explosion in yucca, western ragweed, broom snakeweed, 
and all sorts of other plants cattle rarely eat.  
Many other pastures have their own problems with cedars, thistles, buckbrush, and other weeds.  
Spraying, digging, or bulldozing often are too expensive.  
But we need to do something to save our pastures.  
Fortunately, goats eat these weeds.
Set aside your pride and think about this for a second.  
Nearly all grazing operations have enough weeds to add one goat for every cow and not need to reduce cow numbers.  
Many could add five to ten goats per cow.  If these goats eat your weeds, you save money on herbicides.  
Fewer weeds means more grass for your cattle.  
And goat kids sell for fifty to one hundred bucks apiece during the November through March holiday season.
Save money, extra grass, and more income.  Are you too proud to even consider using goats on your land?
