IvyWild Lamanchas

I was very involved within the ND show world for many years. When my daughter began showing our ND goats in showmanship she found the Lamancha breed and instantly fell in love with the breed. I myself was not so easily persuaded as I was a bit taken aback by the lack of ears and was very happy with my current breed.

However her persistence in desiring one of these goats took me down the rabbit hole of research into the Lamancha breed and I spent the time speaking with many Lamancha breeders both local and from all over the country. The more I spoke with breeders and looked at the breed the more intriguing they became to me. The initial goal was to obtain a single Lamancha kid to begin the herd, However after all of the research I found myself falling in love with these absolutely adorable goats and the earless trait became very endearing, especially when combined with their incredibly forgiving,curious and clownish temperaments..

We took the time to do our research and track down the very best animals we could possibly get our hands onto and then became the work of talking their loving and very proud breeders into letting us purchase a few in order to begin our new adventure into this wonderful breed. We are very excited to begin this new breeding program here at IvyWild Dairy Goats.
