"Mousse"

I am a large, powerful paint percentage doe who has been in Hill Place Farm's show string for many years, and, off show season, I produce awesome kid after awesome kid. Structurally correct, a tight udder, and lots of muscle make me a favorite on the farm. You will find one of my daughters on this page. Check her out!


"Parfait"

I may not be a paint like my mother, but I have everything else. I have been a member of the show string for two years and I have never taken less than first in my class - and most shows I win a championship or two. My name is Parfait and my Grandmother is Hor's d Oeuvre a solid red doe who has produced 24 kids over a 10 year period and has produced more winning goats than any other doe on the farm. Furthermore, Grandma is still going strong. I expect I will be just like Grandma.


Thomasina:

I’m Thomasina. I won everything my first time in the show ring: my class, my division and overall grand champion percentage doe and that’s against some of the best does around. I’m not just bragging. Look at how clean my front is, and how deep and wide I am – not to mention my butt. You might like to know that my Great Grandmother is Hor's d Oeurve!


Guten Tag. My name is Edelweiss and life is tough when you are only a percentage doe. In below zero degree weather and in the middle of the night I had to birth, clean off and feed these four boys, who had a combined birth weight of 38 pounds. Furthermore, I had to raise the boys without any help and it took a lot to ensure that their combined daily weight gain was 1.82 pounds ... yep, you read it correctly that comes out to a .456 pound weight gain, per boy, per day.

 

 

 

After raising my four boys I got dragged out of the pasture and put in the show ring where I was a 3 time Senior Champion, 3 Time Grand Champion, Best Doe in Show and 1 Reserve Grand Champion. I think at my age and my accomplishments, I should be able to retire, don’t you?

Percentage Boer Group We are Hill Place Farm’s percentage herd and our kidding stats have been stellar every year. Our kidding rate averages 224% which means mostly twins and triplets. Our kids average 8.85 pounds at birth and grow on average .51 pounds per day. That’s pretty impressive when you consider the long frigid winters in upstate New York. Perhaps, most impressive is the fact that our market kids dress out at an average of 57% when the industry average is 50%. That means more meat per kid and a more profitable bottom line. Our kids start arriving in January. Choose your kids early, put them on "layaway" and pick them up when they are 12-weeks-old.
