Hello and welcome to Lil Mac D! I am Mackenzie Daniels (Lil Mac D) and these are my beloved dairy goats (and the products made by us)! I absolutely love my goats! I started my herd in 2009 and while I have mostly Nubians, I've managed to work in a few other neat goats that are different dairy breeds. I enjoy going to shows (showmanship is my favorite class) and spending lots of time out in the pasture with my goats.
Thanks for visiting and have a blessed day! :) Mackenzie |
The Goats Make It Great!

I take great pride in caring for all my goats. Everyone is CAE/ CL negative. We test each year to make sure we stay that way. My herd is on DHI and we appraise every other year. I am committed to raising the healthiest goats possible. The feeding program, vaccine schedule, worming, cocci prevention, copper bolusing, and routine feet trimming reflect this commitment.
Goats live the good life here at the ranch. They have access to pasture (with lots of trees and yummy leaves) 24/7 with an all you can eat locally grown hay buffet. Milking time is the favorite time of day. The girls come into the parlor with their "milking buddy" where they enjoy a grain ration, udder massage and regularly scheduled pedicures. It is like a day at the spa everyday! In turn, they produce some of the best milk in the west...and east...well, pretty much everywhere! |
Quality vs. Quantity
In the truest sense of the word, we are a "micro" dairy. Nothing is mass produced. Everything is handmade.
