The last 90 yearling does are in the midwest, and think that it's heaven compared to Montana! Our next batch of kids is arriving any moment, so please contact us to start scheduling delivery trips in July for family groups or September for does or doelings after "weaning." Bucks travel well at any time, other than the three weeks per year when they are busy making the next generation of money-making meat goats.

Smoke Ridge is your source for meat goats that work FOR YOU. Our goats are raised on natural forage only (no feeding of concentrates or grain is necessary) and convert pasture, brush, and weeds into a meat for which the demand exceeds the supply. And the demand for goat meat continues to grow.

Our does have their kids in the pasture in Spring (here in Montana), raising an average of 1.9 kids annually. Kids reach market weight on natural forage in approximately six months, and thus are ready to be sold when market prices are typically highest, in fall and winter. Our goats respect hot-wire (electric fence), are used to being handled by people, and are raised with livestock guardian dogs. Smoke Ridge bucks are selected for rate of weight gain, high libido, and are either twins or triplets from dams who display excellent maternal traits. Smoke Ridge breeds pure Spanish, Spanish-Boer and Spanish-Savannah composite-breed goats. Selection is for efficiency of production, strong maternal attributes, and longevity.

Smoke Ridge has been in business since 1991. We operate our business ethically, we want YOU to be successful, and can deliver goats to you at cost. We'll help you once you have your goats, and the new Meat Goat Handbook will be of management and business assistance as well as showing you almost 300 pictures of the many different kinds, shapes and sizes of meat goats in the U.S. and overseas. Smoke Ridge produces and has available for sale breeding goats that give the highest and longest lasting returns at the lowest possible cost and expenditure of labor.
