We are located in La Center, Washington, just a 1\/2 an hour North of Portland, OR. <\/strong> <strong>Our herd is regularly tested CAE free, and is maintained in a closed herd\u00a0 atmosphere. We treat our goats preventatively in a primarily holistic manner using herbs, vitamins, and minerals.<\/strong> <strong>All of our Mini\u00a0 Nubians are from excellent show and milk lines such as Saada, Hidden Creek, Whiskey River Ranch, W4&#8217;s Caprine Pursuits, Daystar\u2019s farm and Echo Hill\u2019s farm.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">We moved here just shy of eight years ago with a dream to raise our 12 children with animals, hard work, home grown cuisine and fresh air. The natural next step once we moved here was to improve the fencing and\u00a0find ourselves quality animals to raise. We have been connected with gracious friends with many years of experience, and with their help 2012-2013 became our first year breeding. We started with proven Standard and Mini Nubian lines; healthy stock and good milkers. Boy have we learned a lot and still have so much more to go!!!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.breezeecreekfarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Goat-Collage-send.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1213\" src=\"https:\/\/www.breezeecreekfarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Goat-Collage-send-791x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Goat Collage send\" width=\"584\" height=\"756\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.breezeecreekfarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Goat-Collage-send-791x1024.jpg 791w, https:\/\/www.breezeecreekfarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Goat-Collage-send-600x776.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.breezeecreekfarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Goat-Collage-send-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/www.breezeecreekfarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Goat-Collage-send.jpg 1275w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<strong><em>\u201cA righteous man has a\u00a0regard for the life of his animal\u201d Proverbs 12:10<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>\u201cBe thou diligent to know the state of thy\u00a0 flocks, and look well to thy herds.\u201d Proverbs 27:23<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">These two verses from the Scriptures are a daily reminder of our great responsibility to manage our herd well. Our desire is to raise up quality animals in a humane way that benefits them as they provide for us\u00a0so faithfully with a glorious supply of milk, yogurt , cheeses, soap and sometimes even meat. We are attempting this through four acres of healthy\u00a0fields and pasture\u00a0and diverse foraging through our several acres of surrounding forestland. Our forests are an abundant supply of many much needed\u00a0nutrients and beneficial wild medicinals. In our forests we have Oregon grape root, dandelion, oxalis,fern, wild ginger, plantain, maple, birch, pine and evergreen trees. We also grow Hawthorn berry\u00a0( a goats favorite), wild raspberry, blackberry, thimbleberry, huckleberry, and wild apple trees. Along with these delicacies our goats receive a daily portion of alfalfa, diverse grass hays, free choice minerals, kelp, and sodium bicarbonate as well as sulphur block, and apple cider vinegar. For our lactating does, they receive in addition;\u00a0barley ,Oats, raspberry leaf, and a variety of sunflower seeds,pumpkin seeds, and fresh apples, carrots and squashes as available. Everything our goats ingest is organic and %100 <span class=\"skimlinks-unlinked\">natural.Our<\/span> goats receive regular treatments of copper bolus for shiny coats and over all excellent health. In return our goats only provide the best tasting milk and pleasant company.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.breezeecreekfarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Breezee-Creek-Farm-business-card-2-2-2-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1211\" src=\"https:\/\/www.breezeecreekfarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Breezee-Creek-Farm-business-card-2-2-2-2-1024x585.png\" alt=\"Breezee Creek Farm business card 2 2 2 2\" width=\"584\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.breezeecreekfarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Breezee-Creek-Farm-business-card-2-2-2-2-1024x585.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.breezeecreekfarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Breezee-Creek-Farm-business-card-2-2-2-2-600x343.png 600w, https:\/\/www.breezeecreekfarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Breezee-Creek-Farm-business-card-2-2-2-2-300x171.png 300w, https:\/\/www.breezeecreekfarm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/Breezee-Creek-Farm-business-card-2-2-2-2-500x286.png 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/a>Why Miniature Dairy Goats?<\/strong><br \/>\n(a Note from fellow Mini enthusiast and goat mentor, Daystar\u2019s Farm)<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;The standard purebred dairy goat breeds have been pushing for greater stature for the show ring which has resulted in standard\u00a0dairy goat breeds getting larger in recent years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;Standard Nubian goats crossed with Nigerian Dwarf goats\u00a0 result in Mini Nubians, (Miniature Nubians) which are easier for children and\u00a0seniors to handle than their larger relatives,\u00a0 so hoof trimming, clipping, showing and milking become\u00a0 much easier.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;Feed costs are rising and a Mini Nubian dairy goat can\u00a0often produce only 1\/3 less milk than the standard Nubian dairy goat while often\u00a0consuming 2\/3 less feed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;(This will be proven with time, as they breed the size down with each generation.)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;Mini goats have become more in demand for the pet market too because of their smaller size as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;The influence of Nigerian Dwarf blood may serve to expand the breeding season past the fall months and increase the butterfat in the milk\u00a0 as well.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8220;We note the percent of the Nubian and percent of the\u00a0 Nigerian by listing them; Nubian first then Nigerian, in this way; (50\/50%).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Well there ya have it from those who have invested YEARS of blood, sweat, and sometimes even tears into the raising up and caring for\u00a0Mini-Nubians and full size Nubians themselves.\u00a0Next year we will have many more and we can hardly wait! There will be several to choose from that will be for sale for the right family.
