Welcome to Cherry Butte Dairy goats!  We are located in the beautiful Emmett Valley in Southern Idaho.   Looking to the north, we have a view of the beautiful butte and to the south, we see what is left of the once bountiful fruit orchards - thus our herd name was born!

Our herd, like so many others, started when our oldest son joined 4-H and chose the dairy goat project - he is now in his fifth year and his little brother is becoming quite the showman as well and is in his first year of 4-H.

Zach has chosen to raise Nubians  and just added a grade Saanen doe to his herd. Aaron is raising both standard and mini Alpines.  Together, they breed about five does each fall.

Our kids are hand-raised on heat-treated colostrum and pasturized milk.  We do feed by lambar but our kids are handled daily and love attention.

We feed quality alfalfa hay and offer free-choice salt and minerals.  We worm on a rotating basis with Ivomec and Safeguard for goats.  Each animal is also vaccianted anually with CD&T and BoSe.
