Auspuffanlagen Ranch is located in beautiful Siskiyou County, only minutes south of the Oregon- Cal border. Here you will find Nigerian Dwarf goats and dinosaurs (emu) roaming around by day, and LGDs to protect them by night. I have also been replenishing my show-type Silkie flock as the numbers were dwindling due to old age.
Because I really REALLY dislike disbudding, I am excited about working with the polled genetics I have acquired and produced. All does and kids (when old enough) receive a mix of organic feeds and grains. They have access to more than 25 individual minerals and supplements. No chemicals or pharmaceuticals are used here aside from a tube of Terramycin which I alternate with colloidal silver in case of eye boo-boos.
2022 was my first year on milk test, and what a great experience!
Clean tested herd February 2022.
Since I do not and will not use FB, I created a couple groups on MeWe for people to exchange ideas:
CARING FOR GOATS NATURALLY & ORGANICALLY

Not sure where else to put the links, so they'll go here for now. :)
Herbal (1)-Conventional (10) 1-10 Scale: 2
Parasite Protocol: Pregnant does receive anti-parasite essential oils usually twice per month. Everyone else gets anti-parasite herbs roughly every 2 weeks. I realize this could be "overkill", but I do not believe the herbs do any harm, and it's been working fine so far. The anti-parasite herb mix is also offered free-choice in the mineral bar.
Vaccination Protocols: No Vaccinations
