Southbridge Pedigree Saanens
~ Breeding over fifty years ~

A Southbridge doe kid at 2 months old (example only)

Orders are now taken for next season’s kids (spring 2012)

All goats from high Classification stock.

This is a truly rare opportunity for the general public to purchase from one of the top Saanen breeders in New Zealand. Mr. Simpson’s story is featured on our Articles page. He is one of the very few goat judges in the South Island. Saanen goats are known for their placid temperament and excellent milk production.

Goats of this quality simply cannot be found on auction sites however hard you look. All goats will be expertly disbudded (horn buds taken out) and tattooed (for identification and registration purposes). They are all HR (the highest purebred status) and will be registered with the NZDGBA.

A Southbridge doe kid at 7 months old (example only)

Excellent breeding stock and suitable for showing. If you want to start a herd, there’s nothing better than getting a couple of well-bred does as your foundation stock. These purebred doe kids are also ideal as pets on lifestyle blocks. You will need to have at least two does because goats are herd animals and won’t be happy alone, but they are just as intelligent as dogs. They just don’t behave like dogs

There are too many people who have been discouraged after starting with “cheap goats.” Please don’t invite trouble you don’t need! They may be cheap to start off with, but may cost you far more in the long run both in money and hard work. Even if you pay a little more for a good goat, a healthy well-bred goat that gives you a lot of delicious milk for many years is well worth it.

Did you know you can buy a quality purebred dairy goat for less than half the price of a purebred puppy? We think it’s crazy but that’s the fact!

Goats are highly intelligent and will become very affectionate toward humans who spend time with them. Getting young does is a great way to get to know them and care for them just the way you like it. They will be ready to be serviced by a buck when they are around 18 months old. By the time they kid, you will be great friends with them and will have no trouble handling them for milking. Please enquire today to avoid disappointment!

Are you interested in getting dairy goats?

Whether you want doe kids as future milkers, buck kids for future breeding, or wethers (castrated bucks) as future meat, it’s important to buy disease-free quality stock from a responsible goat keeper. As there aren’t very many goat keepers in Canterbury, the task can be tricky.

Here at Canterbury Dairy Goat Breeders Association, we have a network of goat keepers who may be able to help you. We make no promises, but we’ll try to get you in touch with someone who has stock to sell. If you are new to dairy goats, we are more than willing to help by answering your goat-related questions.
