Inavale Mini Goats

One amazing farm puppy looking for a new farm.

Sire’s for next years kid crop.

My much smaller Inavale doe herd.

Excited about this yearling Cedar Creek Julian daughter,
Inavale Demetria.
Hope to show her at Oregon State Fair.

Well- I tried to reduce my herd. Sold my Mini LaManchas-
But- getting my favorite (and her daughter) back next week. They were noisy in their new suburban home. Never noisey here 😉
Have to admit I am happy to have her back. Her daughter will be for sale but she will be staying-

Wall-E
He will be missed. Our first rescue dog.
With us for 20 years- ❤️
3 years old when he moved onto our farm.

Good memories
My son Merlin and I
at Oregon State Fair-
probably 1992 or 93.

Rayna - our first litter in 2014.
Had 8 puppies on our bed while I was at work.
One of these is Jayne ❤️

Grace is looking good this year.
Cedar Creek Julian daughter).
A bit uneven since I sold one of her doe kids.
Sold all my Mini LaManchas 😢But all went to great homes.
Thank you to their new owners.
Kept 4 Mini Nubians-
3 are Julian daughters.
Not ready mentally to sell any of them 😉😊❤️

Celeste

After more thought I find that I cant part with my last 4 Mini Nubians. I have worked with their bloodlines too long to let them go- yet.

I am selling all my Mini LaManchas- although they are so very nice.
Thank you to all that have contacted me about my Mini Nubians.

Celestes buck

Tid Bit Faulkin
3 years old 5th gen
Very friendly

Inavale Celeste- 2 gen 3 year old.
2nd freshener - never milked.

After 50 years I am Considering selling most of my Mini’s.
I can no longer milk - due to arthritis in my hands. And too few goats to justify getting a milking machine.
Will post more info when I decide which are available. Will keep a couple because love them. Prices will be reasonable for quality goats
Mini LaMancha and Mini Nubians. 😞
(Trying not to change my mind).
I am also not in a hurry to disperse my herd. I will be keeping at least 5 or 6. I hope.

Was an extinct fox once man's best friend? Our ancestors may have kept foxes as pets long before domestic dogs, archaeological evidence suggests.

Grace just surprised me during the eclipse on Monday-
2 nice doe kids but obviously the sire was my Mini Lamancha buck. 🤣

Leela- puppies due soon.
Great all around farm breed -
