Welcome to Hymnotes Farm Registered Pygmy Goat pages.
We purchased our first pygmy goats in 2005, and what a wild bunch they were!
Many breeders allow their pygmy goats to dam raise their young which means there will be a fair amount of work needed to tame the goats down.
Here at Hymnotes Farm our babies are raised on a CAE prevention program which involves bottle feeding the babies from the moment of birth on pasturized milk.
Hymnotes Farm kids are very friendly. They will even come to you when you call their name … if they want to! We are still working on a program that will prevent the stubborn quality that pygmy goats seem to express!

In 2008 Julia’s dam had problems delivering her single kid. I knew he was not alive and that he was very big. I could not get him out! The vet was called out and a c-section had to be performed to save the dam. We stood the dam on two bales of straw and the vet did a c-section with the doe standing up (this is the way they do cows). The surgery went very well, and we put the doe on the ground. She stood quietly for a few minutes, and then started to walk around (a very good sign).
I was nervous about the dam when it was time for her to kid in 2009, however everything went “picture perfect” and both Koza Julia and her mom “Julia” were fine. The only one stressed about the whole ordeal was me!
