Mini Nubian goats 101……almost

Want to know a little more about goats!?
Hello! We are the DeShanos. We have a 40 acre homestead in northern Michigan called the Double D ranch. With our four children and grandpa Steve follow along as we establish our homestead, from goats, pigs and chickens to growing food in our garden. We learn to be a little bit more self sustaining everyday.

I wanted nubians I bought 1 n my neighbors had dwarfs so I got a set of twins from her so she wasnt lonely. I bought a nubian male n I was new to having goats I Bought 2 more nubian girls and then my other neighbor who bought hers off the same neighbor I got my twins from gave me theirs. That being said I bred my male with the dwafts I had to pull them so far the dwarfs thru me 2 sets of twin boys twin girls and 1 male still waiting on my nubians to drop

[@doubledranchmi01]

Awesome! It is recommended that you bred a female Nubian to a dwarf male. The Nubian male was probably to big for the dwarf. But I am so glad everything turned out ok :)

I hadn't heard of mini nubians before. What is the advantage to producing this cross breed?

Do mini Nubians have easier birthing and less assisted births than the Nigerians do?

[@doubledranchmi01]

I only had to assist with one this year. That’s usually how it goes. But I am not sure. I have never had Nigerians.
