Thank you! for your interest in Kickadee Hill Saanens. 2012 will mark our 29th year of breeding dairy goats. Our goal is to breed Saanens who produce well and have the structural soundness that enables them to be productive well into their later years. We want easy-keepers, so we breed for substance. We prefer a level lactation doe who can milk through the winter months to a bucket buster who dries off when she sees the first snowflake. We breed for low maintenance does with easy temperaments because we want to our time in the barn to be enjoyable.


We’ve owned 28 Permanent Champions in our goat lifetime. 17 of them were goats that we raised and showed ourselves while 11 were goats that we sold as kids and other people raised and finished. We’ve been to the National Show three times, and have been in the top ten placing of the class with many animals.

At our peak, we had a raw milk license, fudge making permit, and farm store, freshening 35 does annually. These days we have a small herd. We try to keep the number of does we freshen to 10 or less. All of our animals have deep pedigrees full of excellent animals on both sides of their pedigrees. We have three doe lines which are designated by “A” “L” or “J” names. The A’s and L’s have been on our farm for 4 generations while the J’s go back to our very first Saanen and have been here for 7 generations.

We hand raise all of our kids, even the wethers, so you can expect a calm, well-socialized kid when ordering from Kickadee Hill. We strive to give our kids optimum care so that they can grow to reach their full potential. Our kids are treated for coccidia and wormed once a month until they are 6 months old. Kids are vaccinated with CDT and are routinely given Bo-Se and vitamins ADE.



Kid deposits are honored in the order received. If you select a second choice kid, it is honored ahead of a subsequent order’s first choice. We require a $100 deposit to hold the kid of your choice. If we do not offer the kid for sale for any reason, your deposit will be refunded promptly or transferred to an alternate choice, whichever you prefer. The balance may be paid in cash at the time of pick-up, or it may be paid by check two weeks in advance of pick-up, whichever is easier for you. Prices listed are “at the farm”. The buyer is responsible for health certificates, vet fees, shipping charges, etc. We require pick-up of your kid by one month of age. Prices are subject to change on kids that are not pre-ordered.


If you would like more information, please contact us. We are always happy to pull up a chair and talk goats.
