Hello and welcome to the
official FVH Boer Goats Blog!


We are a small scale farm in Ohio. Each year we kid anywhere from 10-15 high percentage boer does. We kid in mid to late March (and also kid in February for some buyers).

We sell to 4-Hers, private breeders and people just looking for a pet, companion animal or brush clearer. Our goats are extremely friendly and easy to handle. One of our yearly 4-H buyers once commented, "Half the battle is already won when you open the back of the truck and the kids don't run away from you." We've been told by numerous buyers that our kids are some of the friendliest around. Aside from that trait our kids do well in the show ring. They are well muscled and have good conformation. Our goats have placed as grand champions as well as first, second and third places at county fairs around us. In 2007 a wether born and bred on our farm was shown at the Ohio State Fair where he placed in the top five of his weight class.

Wethers
All of our buck kids are dehorned when/before they are a week old. They are then banded at two months old. We have found that wether kids have better rate of growth when left intact for this amount of time.

Does
Doe kids will be dehorned if a deposit is put on them before they are a week old and it is specified that you would like them dehorned.

Health
All goats that we sell are up-to-date on CD/T vaccinations, are dewormed and in excellent health.

In the case that you contact us and all our kids are sold you may still set up a time to come see this year's kid crop and decide if you would like to put a deposit down on a 2015 kid.

Note: All photos on this website are of our goat herd. All of the photos of goat kids are kids born and bred on our farm. Our goats are high percentage Boers (96% and above), but they are not registered. Our two bucks are fullblood Boers.

You may have noticed... we have updated our blog! :D While things may look different here they are still the same on the farm! All the goats are fat and happy!

Dazzle - Retired



Today we said our goodbyes to sweet Dazzle. She was one of the first kids on our farm. She turned eight this year and after ten kids (true and adopted) we decided she was ready for a well-deserved retirement. She's going to have such a good home as a pony's companion and we know she will be extremely loved by her new "kids". :)

In Today's News...

We had three sets of twins born today! Each doe had a buck and a doe. Another doe started our March kidding with twin bucks on the 8th.
























Pictured: Nika's just-hours-old doeling fast asleep. This is why our kids are so friendly! :)

What's That?!





















Two of our February kids, Divine and Fritz, gaze a the "odd" purple creature outside.

(picture taken 3-6-11. The February kids are now two and a half weeks old. Fritz (on the right) has averaged a half a pound of weight gain per day since he was born!)
