And Yilly has twin doe kids
Yilly, our first freshening girl with big moonspots, gave birth to twin doe kids this morning without assistance. Beautiful girls, she and one doe kid will be available to a new home! SOLD.
Silveraurora has been breeding Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goats for milk and show since 2003 when we flew up our first adults and kids after many months of pedigree research. We are one of the few herds in the US with Jobi Dairy animals in our herd, and we are very pleased with their strong milk production. Both Jobi Dairy and Rosasharn herds have had many Top Ten milk production awards, and you will find their genetics throughout our herd pedigrees. We have a 120 acre farm where we raise our own hay organically and feed a natural custom dairy concentrate which includes non-GMO roasted soybeans and a vitamin/mineral mix custom made annually based on multiple hay sample results. All of our adult goats on our property are tested annually and have always tested negative for CAE and Johne's, never any CL on our goats or our property. Because of our work on the farm, we have milked only once a day in DHI test for the past few years but will be going back to twice a day to improve our milk records - we know the girls can do it, but like many families, sometimes milking twice a day every day is nearly impossible especially with the current farm expansion going on. Our girls are happy and healthy, and we keep a select herd that also wins, and wins well, in the show ring too. We hope you enjoy the photos as they are posted, and feel free to email us at

Enjoy!
