Standards and Practices
Our Kiko goats spend their days in the open air, grazing pastures and woods in familiar settings. The goat kids grow up with their mothers within the protective herd, learning to choose from diverse forages. Male goats are available castrated or uncastrated. We do not administer any antibiotics. By focusing on proactive animal health through providing many forage options along with free choice sea salt and minerals, we prevent many diseases from attacking the herd.
Hanging Weight
Our whole goat meat is sold based on its “hanging weight”. Hanging weight is defined as the carcass weight minus the head, hide and entrails. Male goats average 60-70 lbs live weight at 6 months of age with a hanging weight of 25-35 lbs, ~50% of the live weight. During the cutting process some of the bone is removed, therefore, the final amount of meat you receive will differ from the hanging weight. You can expect to receive between 60-65% of the hanging weight as cut, wrapped meat.
Butchering Process
We are using a custom exempt butcher located in Girard, PA. Our butcher will cut and package your goat according to your specifications. After slaughter, the meat is hung to chill for 24 hours, then cut and wrapped to your specifications, then frozen for safe transport. Generally, one goat will fill one standard sized cooler. Goat meat can be picked up from our farm or delivered within a reasonable distance (~20 miles).
Please contact the farm with any questions!

Jacob raises Dominiques, Barred Rocks, Rhode Island Reds and other assorted breeds. Always cage-free, the hens are free to forage in the yard, field or gardens and are fed organic grain and kitchen scraps. The moveable chicken tractor is rotated regularly for easy access to new grass. Eggs have a dark yellow yolk and are so full of flavor, you'll taste the farm fresh difference!

Kiko's are a hardy breed, originally from New Zealand they are able to thrive in outdoor conditions year-round in Western New York. They also grow well on a grain free diet of forage and hay and can birth without assistance. We provide our herd with simple 3-sided shelters out in the field and woods to block the majority of the wind and blowing snow in the coldest months.
