Home What is a Nigerian Dwarf? We are in a forested area just outside of the city limits. We raise these affectionate, fun, and gentle creatures for the love they give us back. We found that the Nigerians are like potato chips - "you can't have just one", but we are keeping our herd small so that we can provide the proper care and attention that we believe these animals deserve. Goats shouldn't eat potato chips but we have found they LOVE corn chips.

Welcome to Heaven's Hollow, located in the beautiful northeastern Colorado plains. We maintain a small Oberhasli dairy goat herd, with an emphasis on milk, show, and quality rather than quantity. Thank you for your interest in our dairy goat herd. We have been raising dairy goats since , when we purchased our first Nubian does because my daughter Nicole was allergic to baby formula. In , we moved to our current location and were forced to sell our lovely does.

High in the mountains above timberline lives one of my favorite Colorado wildlife species, the mountain goat Oreamnos americanus. In spite of their name, mountain goats are actually not true goats. In fact, mountain goats are more closely related to some African antelope species than they are to domestic goats! Billies and nannies both have horns, yet unlike many other Rocky Mountain ruminants, mountain goats rarely fight with one another. Feeding primarily on grasses and flowering plants, mountain goats live in herds and family groups, but you will occasionally see them off foraging on their own. During the winter, mountain goats develop a thick, woolly coat, which they shed during the spring and early summer. This is why they sometimes have a raggedy or patchy appearance — they shed their winter wool by snagging it on bushes and tree branches. Mountain goats have a number of unique adaptations that allow them to survive and thrive in an ecosystem characterized by steep, rugged terrain. Their hooves are padded to help them grip rocky surfaces and ledges, while flexible toes provide for increased traction.

Rather than estimating what the vet expenses might be and adding them into the price of the yak, we have found the price is often better for the buyer if we separate the vet fees from the yak price. The yaks from these type of "fire sale"s may be less expensive at purchase but their health may also be compromised and restoring them to full health could be an additional expense for the new owner. The longer we have a yak that is for sale, the more feed, care and other expenses we have associated with that yak so we must adjust our pricing to reflect this. We can begin vet scheduling for tests and paperwork required for the destination state so that the buyer can pick up the yak within a month or less from the date we receive the deposit. The first yaks we purchased from other breeders had different levels of handling. Our starting point is with imprinting at birth and daily increasing trust before we begin the halter and lead work. Long before that those yaks have probably had reduced feed as the owner has struggled to continue operating. We include information on caring for them and supplies needed. Some were never halter trained. If you are located beyond our local delivery area or in another State, we have a few connections with transporters that may be able to assist you. Once received, a deposit locks in the yak price and the yak for the buyer.

The yaks from a "fire sale" may be less expensive at purchase but their health may also be compromised and restoring them to full health could be an additional expense for the new owner.
