Two "Tough" Breeds for Exceptional Performance & Beauty

Brightman Farm Goats live in a Beautiful Pasture Setting on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. We developed our pasture without chemicals in 2014 specifically for our goats, about 2 years before their arrival, using a 7 forage plant mix created specifically for goats in our climate region containing orchard grass, tall fescue (endophyte free), chicory, alfalfa, white yarrow, bird's foot trefoil and red clover! As a result, our goats are happy, fast growing and doing very well!

We are working on the development of 2 breeds: Kiko and Myotonic. We began with high quality, performance tested Kiko bucks: an NKR Registered 100% New Zealand Kiko and an NKR Registered Purebred Performance Tested Kiko. Initially, some Kiko bucks were crossbred with MGR Registered Myotonic goats and have produced some excellent offspring for our customers use as pets, grazers and as meat or dairy breeders.

Our NKR Registered Purebred Kiko Herdsire ' WYN Geronimo' (photo included) was in the top 10 of the 2015 Western Maryland Meat Goat Performance Test, which measures parasite resistance and growth rate. The crossbred or purebred goats can be sold as commercial breeding stock or as pets. Our crossbred wethers (neutered males) of both breeds are beautiful, hardy and entertaining as pets and companions for humans or other animals and make excellent grazers for brush clearing. Our crossbred bucks and does are excellent breeding stock for the meat goat industry, as they are hardy and high quality meat breeds. We have a developing herd of MGR ('Myotonic Goat Registry') Registered Purebred Myotonic "Fainting Goats" which we use to produce kids to be sold as pets/breeding stock or possibly as breeding stock for the meat goat industry.

Currently, we are focused on growing our separate Purebred herds of both Kiko & Myotonic breeds and selling them as such. We have been breeding up to Purebred status with our Kiko goats since 2016 and the resulting goats have been very hardy and beautiful. The very small amount of Myotonic breed left in the Purebred Kiko results in a bit more muscle and great parasite resistance. Our Kiko goats have a lot of red color mixed with tan and some black as well which is beautiful and shines in the sunlight. It is always best to visit our farm and see the goats to understand their quality and environment.
