The detail

Kinders are a dual-purpose goat developed in Washington state in 1985 from Nubian and Pygmy parents. They are mid-sized, give rich milk and put on meat well, which suits small homesteads wanting both from one herd.

What to weigh

Kinders are less common, so registered stock can be hard to find. They breed year-round and kid multiples often, so plan for kid numbers and a separate buck pen.
