Ethics
My breeding ethic is simple: respect for the animal. Unlike most breeders, I make it my policy to avoid inbreeding, early weaning, unsuitable feed, or introducing goats to breeding too early in order to hinder the natural development of the goats and kids!!! Thus, the small size and beauty of my Toy Goats are completely natural, achieved solely through my ethical choices as a breeder.
All my breeding animals have been selected based on their morphology, size, gentleness, and color. In fact, my goats measure between 30 and 50 cm at the withers, making them toy and mini-dwarf goats. No related relationships are allowed between my breeding animals to avoid inbreeding. Respect for animals is also a key aspect of my breeding: No method that goes against common sense or the welfare of my animals is used to reduce size or promote "productivism." No early weaning, which could affect the proper physical and psychological development of the kid. My animals receive all the necessary care (deworming, hoof trimming, anti-parasitic treatment, etc.).
A goat cannot, and should not, live alone. If you wish to acquire a goat, you must consider having companionship, such as a dog, pony, horse, chicken, or other goats. Without it, your goat will develop unpleasant behaviors in the long run and will be unhappy. Price variations apply depending on the size of the parents (higher prices for toys, as they are much rarer).

Miniature goats are not only good companions for other animals, they also make excellent pets for humans.
A miniature goat lives an average of 15 to 17 years.
Purchasing should be a well-considered decision.
A kid goat needs at least 1000 m² of garden space and a small shelter to protect it from the cold, strong winds, rain, and snow. A 1.20 m high fence is sufficient.
Diet
Hay in winter, or all year round if necessary/ Salt rock/ Vegetables/ Grass.
Diet plays a vital role in an individual's growth. A kid born in winter and fed pellets and hay will not develop as well as a kid born in spring, which will benefit from mother's milk, rich in the nutritional value of grass. Similarly, a kid bottle-fed with powdered milk (dead milk) rather than mother's milk (live milk) may be prone to diarrhea and will not fully benefit from optimal growth.
A goat needs company, for example: dogs, chickens, ponies, kids, pigs, etc.
If you don't have any other pets, there's a 50/50 chance she'll end up bored.
I rarely castrate my kids because the risk of infection is very high. It's up to you to arrange this with your veterinarian. For proper castration, it's best to do it before the kid is 8 months old. A cost-effective solution: castration with forceps at your veterinarian has the advantage of monitoring and an anesthetic injection. The cost: less than 80 euros.
Females are not neutered; to date, we have not known any veterinarian who performs this procedure on goats.
Extra-toy goats, as a general rule, live a little shorter lives.
The toy goat is the smallest goat in the world!
Extra-toy goats are accidents that I deplore and do everything I can to avoid them.
All female toy goats, with their degree of rarity and interest, as well as the work done on their genetics, command their price. Our selection of small animals is completely natural and without inbreeding.
The price depends on the animal and its rarity; the smaller the goats and the more beautiful, "original" colors they have, the higher the price.
My goats are not chocolate croissants, and I don't respond to people who are only interested in the price. A price range is indicated. If you buy at a certain price, you're not with the right breeder; I generally charge higher than average prices.
Our farm offers prices for all budgets: starting at $250.
The lowest prices are for adult Dwarf goats.
FEMALES (Kids):
TOY: Price upon request
MINI pygmy / DWARF: starting at $250
MALES (Kids):
TOY: upon request
MINI Pygmy / DWARF: starting at $200 (Adult)
Payment in installments is possible, up to 5 monthly installments
The prices for blue-eyed kids are higher; as are the kids I bottle-raised. Price upon request. (I bottle-feed the kids only when absolutely necessary. I would never remove them from their mother under any other circumstances.).
It is therefore difficult to predict, at the time of birth, what the baby goat's adult size will be. The estimate can only be approximate, since it is only during growth that we can predict its future size. In short, size is determined by its parentage: parents, grandparents, etc., over approximately three generations. As well as its diet, climate, and living conditions.
Generally speaking
MALES are very cuddly and gentle, very close to humans. Castrated males are just as much, odorless.
FEMALES are more independent, therefore less cuddly. (She will go into heat twice a year throughout her life, which may be expressed by periodic bleating.
Each animal is sold with all the farm's documents, which provides a guarantee for the buyer.
For example: If the animal arrives sick at your home, all veterinary fees are the responsibility of the breeder within 7 days of the sale. (It's quite rare for a goat breeder to vouch for the animal for 7 days after its departure, not to mention that the animal will have been at the farm for at least 3 months before its final departure.)
The animals are dewormed and vaccinated.

The ADVANTAGES of MINI Goats: SMALL BUT STRONG!
Miniature goats are known for their excellent adaptability to varied climates and environments. For this reason, it is relatively easy to care for miniature pet goats.
-
You can go on vacation without any problem; they are independent animals. (Unlimited water and hay are available.)
-
They are hardy animals, despite their small size, and can withstand temperatures as low as -10 degrees Celsius and extreme heat. (They are animals adapted to their natural environment, the desert.)
-
The size of a poodle when fully grown, an outdoor dog kennel is sufficient! Their small size means they don't need as much space.
-
Feeding and care are relatively inexpensive. Goats are very hardy, rarely get sick, and veterinary fees are lower for kids. Hay, a bale costs a maximum of $10, with two per month per kid consumed. Vegetable peelings are used as food supplements. They will also reduce your waste.
-
They maintain your garden in an environmentally friendly way! No need for a lawnmower!
They make fabulous pets, especially for children and families. They are gentle and affectionate.
They are as friendly as a dog! Easy to train.
And yet less dangerous for children! They are not aggressive. The damage is much less serious than that caused by a dog. Goats are very playful, and they are kind and affectionate by nature!
After this message, if you are happy with it, I will send you photos of the baby goats available for sale.
