Registered Nubian Dairy Goats
Welcome to the Wool Farm Dairy Goat herd! We raise registered, purebred Nubian dairy goats. When you visit our farm in Selma, NC, you will have the opportunity to get to know our curious and loving Nubians, which provide us with rich, creamy milk for our Handcrafted Goat Milk Soap.
Nubians are a full-sized dairy goat breed. They are popular for their gentle and friendly demeanor, as well as their high milk production. While they were originally dual-purpose livestock, their milk lines were more emphasized over time, and they are now primarily known for their milk production.
The milk from Nubian dairy goats is excellent for drinking and cheese-making due to its rich flavor and high butterfat content. These goats thrive in herds, have friendly personalities, and are curious by nature.
We invite you to visit The Wool Family Farm. See why we love our Nubians, observe our herd management practices, and decide if our Nubian dairy goats are a good fit for you.
Our Herd Sires
Our herd sires also exhibit excellent breed conformation, with prominent Roman noses and deep, long bodies. In addition, our boys are sweet-natured and well-behaved.
Shown below are our permanent herd sires with their Linear Appraisal (LA) scores and ADGA ID numbers. Click on the photos for a two-generation pedigree of each buck.

More About the Wool Farm Dairy Herd
We take great pride in maintaining a healthy and productive herd of purebred Nubian dairy goats that demonstrate strong breed charactertics.
Registration and Performance
Our breeding herd is registered with the American Dairy Goat Association (ADGA.org).
Maintaining registration with ADGA allows us to evaluate the quality of our herd and contribute to the improvement of the Nubian breed. In addition, by participating in ADGA’s linear appraisal and milk testing programs, we are able to provide our customers with assurance of the productivity they might expect if they follow similar herd management practices.
Certified Herd Health
Our goats are tested annually for prevalent goat diseases and certified free of CAE, TB, and Brucellosis in North Carolina.
Since startup, we have maintained a closed herd. With the exception of an outside buck every few years, no other animals enter our herd, unless they were born on the farm.
