Benclue farm and miniature goats

30/03/2025

We are super excited to announce our newest Australian Champion 💜Benclue Fugitive💜

He is the 9th Australian Champion for our stud (8 AMG 1 PYG) and we are very proud of our goats achievements.

Fugitive is proving to also be a great stud sire, we are very happy with what he has produced so far and his progeny are already doing him proud in the show ring. 💜

Little Cookie Dough and her mum Ariahna did some promotional work thismorning with JP Drake from Drakes supermarkets for the up coming Adelaide Royal.

24/03/2025

This Chunky little Miss made a dramatic entrance to the world on Sunday night for first time mum Mallee Rise Ariahna. She presented head only no legs, no room for Talisha to get in and find the leg she could only hook a finger behind the shoulder to pull her out. By the time she got out she wasn't breathing so took a bit to get her going but she's nice and strong now.
Welcome Benclue Cookie Dough.

💜💜'Trevor Waterson Memorial'💜💜

We are very proud to announce that our stud has been awarded the Trevor Waterson Memorial Trophy for the 2nd year in a row.

The Trevor Waterson Trophy was set up for a class that Trevor was passionate about, the 'Breeders Trio' and is awarded to the stud that earns the most points in this class from January to December each year.

The Breeders Trio is judged on 3 goats the stud has bred (Ideally 1 Buck and 2 does)each show. The animals are judge both on consistency and quality throughout the line up and hopefully should be a representation of the studs breeding direction.

It's an honour to receive this award and that we can keep Trevors memory alive through it. Trevor was someone who we looked up too and took a lot of his advice on board. 💜

Thankyou to MGA for the beautiful trophy.

We may have snuck in a little 'extra' cargo on our trip home from Portland 🤭🫣.
This little Princess has always been one of our favourites and we can't thank Lee & Les enough for allowing us to look after her in their retirement. Welcome to the herd Aadorable Little Miss Love u Lots aka 'Lottie' 💜🩷💚

💜🐐🐐Available🐐🐐💜

Reducing numbers so have a selection of goats looking for new homes.
Perfect for new breeders and some are suitable for showing (all currently in paddock condition)
All are recent photos except for Farah and Indigo.
Are being offered cheaper than normal due to lack of feed. Anyone interested in breeding packages must be members of a breed society or willing to join one, happy to help and assist new breeders

All are registered, dehorned and from quality proven lines.

Pm for more info. Will be travelling to Portland in Feb and can assist with transport to there or in-between.

EOI Can't believe I'm writing this add... but reality is we have too many boys who aren't getting enough work.

D.O.B 1/1/2022
Current Height 56cm (measured thismorning)
