DragonLair Farm and Kennel Here at DragonLair I am raising quality ADGA Nubian and Lamancha dairy goats and ADGA/AGS Nigerian Dwarfs.

I make soft goat milk cheeses sold directly from my farm and made from my goats delicious, sweet, creamy milk.

MDGA registerable twin doelings. Their LongVu Lamancha granddam averaged 2 gallons of milk a day! These girls should be good home milkers. Their dam is an F1, sire is F2. One has ears, the other does not! LOL. Both have blue eyes and loads of personality. They are eating and drinking like champs and really would love to stay together.

Lots of kids here at DragonLair Farm.....ADGA/AGS Recorded Grade Lamanchas, Nigerian Dwarfs and Nubians. I also have 4 MDGA Mini Lamancha kids, twin does and twin bucks! I lost several due to Cache Valley Virus, a rather heart breaking virus that attacks the kids in their first 2 months of gestation causing miscarriages, fetal deaths, deformed limbs in the kids and little to no milk production in the dam, potential sterility and kidding problems. Once the animal has it, they are immune to it thereafter. It cannot be spread from goat to goat or other mammals, it is spread by mosquito. Other mammals can get it, also, including humans. It hit my area of Maine starting in 2021, I had never heard of it but then found out about it after having dead kids, deformed kids that had to be put to sleep, open does that were confirmed pregnant and no milk from my high producing does. The vet said that it is now part of our lives, so expect a certain percentage of goats to have it each year. Breeding does in the early winter when mosquitos are dead is the only way to help prevent it, however, with the climate warming up, I had mosquitos in December! No vaccine or treatment at this time. I had 1 doeling born last year with deformed body parts, another born extra tiny and weak and 1 born this year with really crooked legs, back and neck, weighing in at less than a pound. The back and neck straightened out, but the legs remain wonky. She gets around really well, as does the one from last year. A Nubian buckling was born this year, full term singleton, who weighed 1 pound and was so tiny and weak, he couldn't nurse even if he could reach moms teats! He was even tinier than the newborn Nigerians. His high producing dam kidded with no milk/colostrum at all, though she did start producing small amounts after a week of being milked twice a day. My CVV kids will be staying here for life, I don't want them going anywhere to be abused or mistreated. Despite their issues, they are adorable and sweet.

Anyway, I will include pictures as the days go by or some of my kids. Any interest in any one of them, just send me a PM.
