Nightsong Farms maintains closed herds of registered Saanen dairy goats, commercial Angora goats and registered Brecknock Hill Cheviot sheep. The Saanen dairy goats provide wonderful milk for our table and to make our smooth goats milk soap. Our Angoras provide luscious mohair for handspinners and our little Brecknocks fine wool.

Our Saanens are a Swiss breed of dairy goat which produces creamy milk used for our soaps. It emulsifies well to produce a creamy, smooth bar that feels wonderful on the skin. We usually sell only buck kids. They are raised on CAE prevention and only relesased after weaning and vaccinations are complete. We do not sell for meat.

The Angoras are fiber goats which originated in Turkey and are the supply of our beautiful, soft, curly mohair. We sell mohair from the farm as well as at shows to handspinners, weavers and felters. Our mohair is sold as fiber, batts, rolags and yarns. As a rule we do not have Angoras for sale as we only breed for replacement.

The Brecknocks are miniature sheep originating in Scotland and the British Isles. They are the newest addition to our farm, arriving in 2002. These little sheep provide us with springy, soft wool for handspinners, weavers, felters. Our knitters and crocheters like the strength and elasticity of this wool for socks. Again we have few for sale as we breed for replacement .
