Since 1994, Patriot Boer Goat Stud, Graaff-Reinet, South Africa, has been breeding functionally efficient, veld-adapted Boer Goats that increase the profitability of your Boer Goat flocks here and in many countries across the world.
Fertility and outstanding mothering abilities are very important in our stud objectives. As a goat breeder, you need to wean healthy, heavy kids rapidly and at a low cost in order to guarantee profitability. This ensures the sustainability of your farming operation. Patriot Boer Goat Stud delivers this essential factor; consistently meeting your requirements. Our clients are assured that our genetics, combined with their management inputs, will make a significant difference in their flocks.
Fact: If your doe is not kidding, she has contributed zero income to your farming operation; she has in fact cost you money.
Our goats are raised on natural veld grazing with mineral lick supplements. We farm in an area that is a mixture of Karoo mountainveld and shrub grazing. The climate ranges from hot (daytime temperatures vary between 30 – 43°C) in summer when most of our rainfall occurs, to cold (-8°C – 20°C) with frost and snow in winter. This environment, especially the mountainous terrain, provides our Boer Goats with the ideal conditions that develop functional and fertile veld-adapted animals that perform consistently in your flocks.
We do not subscribe to the practice of stall feeding to produce animals that may superficially appear to be well-grown and rounded but that compromises the ability of the animal to perform under extensive conditions with minimum inputs.
Patriot Boergoat Stud is registered with SA Studbook and we participate in the National Animal Improvement Scheme. Farm-based performance figures – generated by our industry-leading Herdmaster flock management software – are available to all buyers. This is just a further assurance that you are buying outstanding breeding material that will assist you to achieve your own objectives.
