Providing breeding stock for small and large farms.
Goats and sheep are far more profitable than most other livestock.
Small ruminants like goats and sheep are perfect for small farms with limited acreage. $500/acre annual profit is very reasonable.
Sheep and goats offer the following advantages:
- Smaller initial investment ($250-$350 for a good breeding ewe/doe).
- Quicker return/profit (12-18 months or less).
- Safer and easier to handle than cows.
- Requires less acreage (one acre of good pasture can sustain up to 5 head).
- Run well along side cattle or horses for diversification.

“Be diligent to know the state of your flocks, and attend to your herds; for riches are not forever… the lambs will provide for your clothing, and the goats the price of a field.”
