Wholesome Hill
is more than just goats...
Wholesome Hill is our farm and our lifestyle choice. We believe in stewardship. We believe that people benefit from good stewardship as well as that livestock benefits from good stewardship.
Our goals are about producing a quality goat, a goat who fulfills its purpose. There are different goats for different purposes and while show correct is important for registered stock, a goat must kid easily, raise large babies, and be easily maintained. Our main focus here is multi generational breeding stock that is correct.
We maintain a completely clean tested herd maintaining clean tested status annually. All adult animals here are tested free of "the big 4": CL, CAE, Johne's, and Q Fever. Because many of our animals sell to international customers, we offer additional testing on request as an add-on service.
While we do not offer outside stud services, we do sell straws on bucks we have collected. All of our standing sires (and therefore straws) are clean tested of: chlamydia, campylobacteriosis, toxoplasmosis, leptospirosis, and anaplasmosis. Many of these pathogens are passed via straw.
