Nigerian Dwarf Goats are a dwarf dairy goat originating in Africa and are listed as "recovering" on the American Livestock Breed Conservancy's Conservation Priority list.

The Nigerian Dwarf makes a wonderful companion animal with its gentle disposition, and they are an excellent dairy goat for their dwarf size. A doe generally produces one to two quarts of milk per day that is high in butterfat and makes excellent cheese and butter.

Unfortunately, because of Maryland's strict dairy regulations and ban on raw milk of any kind, Touch the Earth Farm is unable at this time to offer edible goat's milk products for sale.

Our goal, however, is to offer high-quality goat's milk soap and lotion products to our customers in addition to using goat's milk as an important source of our animals' feed.

We are currently building our herd and are looking forward to bringing in another bloodline in 2008.
