What is a mini Nubian? Simply, the purebred nubian bred to a nigerian dwarf. In this instance, male nigerian dwarf had his way with one of my purebred Nubian does. Out comes these adorable little gremlins. Ears double size. and not upright because of the weight and length of the ear - becomes airplane ears.
This photo makes me laugh out loud. What am I doing, yet again, with a single goat kid in the house. And she is from a Nigerian Dwarf male and a purebred Nubian. She came out with two males. one was dead on arrival. One died a couple days later. She on the other hand came out healthy and at 5 days old, a little terror. My mini mountain goat.
I've never wanted to delve into the mini's. Never had any interest in making a smaller goat that makes less milk. Seems the universe is thinking otherwise. We shall see what is going to happen. I want to say i'm going to call her daisy but i usually don't name them for a few weeks. .We shall see. .
