Ione A Dream Kiko Goat Ranch We have raised Kiko meat goats in SW Wa. State since 2009. Visitors Welcome
The name of our ranch is pronounced "I Own A Dream"

We breed for good temperaments, long bodies with strong toplines, parasite resistance, meaty frames with correct conformation. We have raised AKC German Shepherd Dogs since 1982. Our kennel name is Bachneusohn German Shepherds. Our website is www.bachneusohn.com or www.ioneadream.com

We originally bought a few goats to clear the brush from our horse pastures because we got tired of chemically spraying the weeds several times a year. We did a little research and discovered the Kiko goat and how tough they are. They are very interesting goats that require little tending and do a terrific job clearing brush. Now we raise exclusively AKGA and NKR dual registered purebred 100% ancestry New Zealand Kiko meat goats.

This is MEW Ja Mocha, our oldest Kiko doe. She is a New Zealand, born the 1st week of February of 2014, so she is a few months shy of 13 years old. We purchased her as a weanling from Mary Wilson of Half Creek Farm. One of the best goat purchases we have ever made. We own daughters, granddaughters and great-granddaughters of hers. She has been a remarkable doe, a true treasure. We retired her from breeding last year, after 10 straight years of producing high quality offspring. Now she is enjoying the retirement that she has certainly earned. This picture of Ja Mocha was taken 2 days ago.

Some videos taken on our Timberlands in September. Notice the deer right down the road in the first video, the bear doesn't pay much attention to it. The last video is the sow bear with her 3 cubs, the cubs have really grown over the summer.

Here are some of the September pictures of a few of the wildlife in our family timberlands. All of the animals in these pics are wild, not tamed down, not used to humans, they are living their lives in their natural habitat. These pictures were all taken with trail cameras at a time when no humans were anywhere around.

We brought our two 19-month-old bucks home from the buck pasture last Saturday and put them in separate fields with the does that we selected for each. Both yearling bucks were born in late February 2025, both are homegrown bucks that we retained. They have been on their own in the buck pasture all last winter, spring and this summer. We do check on them to see that they are not having any problems, but they are basically on their own. We health checked both when we got them home, everything was good, we did give them their CD/T boosters. IAD Jokers Wild was 192 # and IAD Calico Jack was 171 # when we weighed them on our livestock scale Saturday. Their kids should start arriving late February 2027.

This is IAD Jokers Wild, one of our young herd sires. He is sired by BWP Big Wild Deal, a GFI Wild Bill son out of IAD Pistols Primolo, a daughter of JCP Tejas Pistolero. Joker is 18 months old, a New Zealand and dual registered in the AKGA and the NKR. He has a quiet, calm temperament, great width throughout his chest, & is heavy and meaty. Joker will be hauled home this coming weekend to meet his does. His kids will be born in mid to late February 2027.

Our goal is to get our does to all kid within a few weeks of each other in 2027. Our 2026 kidding was spread over a 6-week timeframe, and we weren't really fond of that. But it was our own fault, we put the bucks in with their prospective does at different times over a 5-week period because of unplanned circumstances. This year the bucks go in with their selected does in separated pastures on the exact same day. We will bring IAD Jokers Wild and IAD Calico Jack home in a few weeks and turn them in with their does for late February kids in 2027.

We put our young 2026 buck, IAD Western Icon in with the 2 does we picked out for him today. One doe we decided on for him was, IAD Haylee, a seasoned doe born in 2020. Haylee has had twins once, triplets two times and quads 2 times. She weighs about 160 # she is quiet mannered, with a superior temperament. The other is IAD Peaches N Cream, a 135 # doe born in 2023, she is also very friendly and easy going. We thought with Icon being so young and inexperienced we would give him a bit of a head start in figuring out that he is now a breeding buck, hopefully our plan works and all of the kids will be born reasonably close together next year.

All of our goats are dual registered AKGA & NKR, New Zealand Kikos.

We're back already with a follow-up on IAD Western Icon's weight. We had a few of you contact us and ask us to get a weight on him sooner rather than later, so that is what we did. We brought him up to the barn this morning and got him on our livestock scale. He was kidded on 3/1/2026 and is 184 days old today, so he is six months old. I'll admit that we were surprised at his weight, we knew he was heavy but didn't expect him to weight quite this much, he weighed in at 133 #. We have never had a young buck that is so easy to handle, he led like a champ and climbed right up on the scale. We know he is young, but we are very tempted to give him a few does later this fall to see what he will produce.

IAD Western Icon is now almost six months old. He is the buck we retained from of our 2026 kid crop. Icon caught our eye early, we were impressed with him overall, his growth is outstanding, he has a quiet demeanor with a great temperament, he is built right, he is wide across the chest, loin and shoulders, he stands square with a good length of body and his shoulders are already developing mass. He was kidded on 3/1/2026 and weighed on our livestock scale at 82 # on 6/4/2026. He is a quad out of IAD Pistols Maggy sired by IAD Calico Jack. We hope to get an updated weight on him soon, he is continuing his positive growth, and we are curious as to what he weighs now. We also kept a buck (now a wether as he has been banded) as a companion for Icon, the two were born on the same day and Icon is much the larger of the two. The two boys are together in a small field, we have not yet turned them out into the big buck pasture with the older bucks.
