Angora goat for sale
Here is a brief list of our current sales animals. We are seedstock producers who specialize in putting breeding flocks together of unrelated animals for breeders just starting out, so please feel free to ask a lot of questions and use our knowledge. If you are looking for pets there are several breeders who specialize more in pet stock than ourselves - our sole concentration is on the highest quality breeding stock. Sale animals include production and pedigree records.

NEWSFLASH!!! Hill Shepherd Farm is moving to Stephenville, Texas in June of 2008, as a result, we will have a wide number of animals available that we would not normally consider selling. Watch this list as we will be adding to it often! All animals must be picked up by June 1 at our Ohio location. Due to the complications of moving our entire farm, we will not be able to offer delivery of animals along the route to Texas.

We are located near Lima, Ohio - 1.5 hours from Columbus and Dayton Ohio, 4 hours from Chicago, 4 hours from Pittsburg, 2 hours from Detroit, MI, 2.5 hours from Indianapolis, 6 hours from St. Louis, MO, 7 hours from Lexington, VA, 9 hours from Des Moines, IA and 10 hours from St. Paul, MN.

Speck Doe 3788
4 year old doe from the Speck Ranch in Texas. Ultra fine haired, heavily covered with beautiful mohair from head to toe. A good and dedicated mom, she has produced several light red tinged kids for us that have gone into our colored breeding program. She herself was born a light apricot color. Would make an important genetic addition to any colored breeding flock - she's an A+ doe to be sure. $500 Photo last fall

Reisling (HS3007) - RESERVED
5 year old white CAGBA registered color carrier by Peppermint (AAGBA, incredibly fine hair) and 806 (see below). This doe has been a great mom and thrown numerous good daughters and one great buck.

5 year old jet black doe has produced multiple herdsire prospects, including the 2005 Great Lakes Show Champion buck. This does gives you unique genetics not available anywhere else. Her mother is an AAGBA registered white goat, her father dominant black. This is a doe I never thought in a million years we'd been offering for sale, but with our upcoming move, we are cutting our herd drastically. Jump on her, she won't last long! $350 Photo as kid

Grand Champion Colored Buck at 2003 Wooster and VAGMA shows. Well done to Pat and Steve Harder from Virginia!


Kristie Sugar of Michigan had 2003 Res. Ch. Non-Dairy Goat and Champ. Angora at her county fair (above) and was back again in 2004 with this doe to be reserve champion Angora (below).


Kallysta Johnson of Ohio with her Champion Angora Doe (above) and Grand Champion Whether (below). Kudos to her for her hard work in capturing Champion Angora Showman as well!
