Special Announcement: I have Does For Sale. 3 weeks after they kid they may be ready to be picked up, with most if not all being in milk. Several will be first fresheners and have great milk potential genetically. It is a very very difficult decision to sell them both because of their value to my herd and the money I have spent to get them here and to this point. I'm offering them for sale only because my hired man is leaving and I must reduce my herd size by 50%. I will accept $200 non-refundable deposits on them, balance due in cash at pick-up. Email me: applejofarms@gmail.com.Special Announcement: New in 2025 Kidding Season: Many will be bottle babies and many will be doe raised at AppleJo Farms this year. Our top priority is for all to be human socialized with A+ temperament, A+ health, A+ potential of being quantity/quality milkers as they reach maturity at 2-3 years of age, with A+ milk genetics.
AppleJo Farms

#1 Tiny Hill Scots Tavish is a *B buck and his sire is also a *B buck. Tavish is DNA confirmed & has ALPHA-s1 CASEIN A/A variants. A cheese maker! Tiny Hill Farm Nigerians have extremely competitive milking genetics, including two Top Ten does in 2020, 15 Elite goats in August 2023, 14 Elite goats in December 2023, and four ADGA Young Sire Development Program Qualifiers in 2020. AppleJo Farms owns 6 Tiny Hill Nigerians. We will have 3 Tiny Hill Does having babies this Fall. I highly recommend you make a Reservation or at least get on our wait list for these kids as they will go fast!
#2 PATS BLACK OAK FARM MCGIBBONY: son of famous LITTLE HOOFPRINTS KONA #1 in Top Ten MILK PRODUCTION (2130# of milk for the year) AND #1 in Top Ten Protein Production in the nation, 2021. DNA Confirmed. McGibbony also has ALPHA-s1 CASEIN A/B Variants. A and B variants are associated with a high content of alpha-s1 casein in milk. Milk with high levels of ALPHA-s1 CASEIN is said to produce a firmer curd in cheese making.
#3 FLAT ROCK'S BERWICKSHIRE CALLUM: This sire produces Nigerian silvers often as he is a SILVER CHAMOISE WITH BLUE EYES, is DNA confirmed AND has Alpha-s1 Casein A/B Variants associated with a high content of alpha-s1 casein in milk. As noted above, Milk with high levels of ALPHA-s1 CASEIN is said to produce a firmer curd in cheese making. NOTE: Flat Rock Farm is no longer breeding their silver goats thus having a Flat Rock Buck be sire to the buckling or doeling you purchase is huge, a limited opportunity.

Kona's Reservation list is already full, and we are taking Wait List applicants only, for her, at this time.
AppleJo Farms is enjoying our brand new Dairy Barn Milking facility. We are very concerned that our kids become socialized and we also milk the does. This kidding season begins here late February and with it begins a new way of nurturing our kids. We have talked with many experienced goat keepers and have decided to separate kids from their mothers and start them on their mothers milk immediately after they are born and cleaned, from a bottle. So our customers will enjoy very very friendly kids!
New Testing is being done over time on all of AppleJo Farms Goats. Each goats DNA is used to perform this very important test to find out what variants our milk contains of Alpha-S1 Casein.
What is Alpha-S1 CaseinThe gene underlying the production of Alpha-S1 Casein in goat's milk shows polymorphisms that affect the amount of protein and fat produced. This test detects variants known to be correlated with high and low production levels of alpha-s1 casein.Phenotype: The gene underlying the production of alpha-s1 casein in goat's milk shows polymorphisms that affect the amount of protein and fat produced. Higher levels of alpha-s1 casein are associated with the best cheese-making, and research suggests that low levels may be associated with reduced milk sensitivities for some people.Variants:
- E, F, N = associated with low content of alpha-s1 casein

2024 AppleJo Farms'Homestead Goals & News For the SeasonI'm so proud of all of you Modern Homesteaders! People ask me why I have invested so much effort and money in such top quality goats when I don't show or put them in performance programs at this time. Here's the reason. The time and expense involved in participating in those excellent programs, will take away from accomplishing my chief goal & focus. This is to support Homesteaders like you! I want all of you who have the need for a highly productive dairy herd to be able to afford to buy them at a reasonable fair price and flourish under your care. To do this, I need to be here at AppleJo Farm tending to the daily needs of our herd and the Homestead, spending resources wisely. The results are worth it! Kids available from our breeding are robust, human socialized, with higher volume & quality milk production & show potential. All of that and more, available at an affordable price for many Homesteaders.2023 was all about finding the very best genetics in specific Dams and Bucks which have an outstanding record in Performance Programs such as the ADGA Top Ten Performance Breed Leaders List. These are leaders in Milk Production, Butterfat Productions and Protein Production. Also, other Performance Programs and ADGA National winners have factored prominently in my search of bucklings and doelings to add to my new herd in 2023. We now have top milk performance does having kids available. Put your Reservation or Wait List request in now to be notified when kids arrive!To be on a specific does kid Reservation list, a $200 per kid, non-refundable deposit needs to be made at the time you make your kid choices.New for 2024: AppleJo Farms will be offering Goat Transport for kids purchased by Homesteaders in Missouri and northern Arkansas. This affordable Transport service will help make it possible for many to purchase AppleJo Farms kids and pay for us to Transport your kids directly to you at your Homestead.We still encourage all who can make the trip to pick up your kids here at AppleJo Farm to do so as the Free Pick-up-Day Workshop is worth participating in. You will learn how to tattoo and give injections and hoof trim and fully care for your kids as they come home to your Homestead.Just as promised:

Here's why I chose these Tiny Hill Nigerian Goats from does on the ADGA elite list, to be the foundation of the new AppleJo Farms Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goat Herd:
"In 2022 we had ten does on the ADGA elite list. We’ve got dairy stars for days, and all our our bucks are *B with daughters, sisters, or both daughters and full sisters on test. We’ve got two ADGA Young Sire Development Program Qualifiers, and in 2020 we had two ADGA Top Ten does."
