Welcome to Daystar's Farm, where we specialize in Miniature Nubian dairy goats. We are located in beautiful Woodland, Washington, just 1/2 an hour North of Portland, OR.

Our herd is fed organic feed, regularly tested CAE free, and is maintained in a closed herd atmosphere. We also have a small number of Nigerian Dwarf goats.

All of our Mini Nubian & Nigerians are from proven show and milk lines.

We have been breeding standard Nubian goats since 1996 and Mini Nubian & Nigerian goats since 2003. We started with proven Mini Nubian lines from Echo Hills Farm,

 who breed champion Miniature Nubian goats, and Phantasma Farm who bred champion Nigerian Dwarf dairy goats, to aid us in producing quality show and milking Mini Nubian dairy goats.

Why Miniature Dairy Goats?

The standard purebred dairy goat breeds have been pushing for greater stature for the show ring which has resulted in standard dairy goat breeds getting larger in recent years.

Standard Nubian goats crossed with Nigerian Dwarf goats result in Mini Nubians, (Miniature Nubians) which are easier for children and seniors to handle than their larger relatives,  so hoof trimming, clipping, showing and milking become much easier.

Feed costs are rising and a Mini Nubian dairy goat can often produce only 1/3 less milk than the standard Nubian dairy goat while often consuming 2/3 less feed.

(This will be proven with time, as they breed the size down with each generation.)

Mini goats have become more in demand for the pet market too because of their smaller size as well.

The influence Nigerian Dwarf blood may serve to expand the breeding season past the fall months and increase the butterfat in the milk as well.

We note the percent of the Nubian and percent of the Nigerian by listing them; Nubian first then Nigerian, in this way; (50/50%).
