Carleton Ranch

Carleton Ranch raises Boer-cross goats for commercial herds and show wethers, and full-blood Boers for breeding stock.  Our percentage does are all at least three-quarters Boer, with some Nubian blood for good milk production and some Spanish blood for toughness.

Look What's New!

Show wether prospects are ready for viewing and sale.  See some of them on the For Sale page.  Doelings coming soon.

SKW2P Check the Load (aka Checkers), a March 2012 doeling out of Hayr1 by KTM Fully Loaded, placed 2nd in the 0-3 month fullblood doe class at the Lone Star Buckle Series in Boerne May 19.  See her in the ring on the 2012 Kids page.

2012 kids started earlier than expected, with a pair of fullblood doelings from Lil Miss Valentine on Leap Day, and the last set of twins arriving May 8.  See some of them on the 2012 Kids page.

We have a new buck!  Check him out on the Bucks page.  We've named him The DQ Dude--we stopped at a Dairy Queen for dinner on the way home with him, and he was the hit of the parking lot, with kids stopping to talk to him and one family posing for pictures with him!

Kim Harris reports that JJ, a Carleton Ranch yearling buck out of AU SLP Big Lips by KTM Fully Loaded, won his class plus was named Reserve Grand Champion Buck of the 2011 Pima County (Arizona) Fair.  Congratulations Kim! 

We have our first-ever Grand Champion!  See RJ Salinas and Big Dot on our new Show Time! page.  If you show one of our goats, send us a show photo and we'll add it to the gallery.
