Welcome to the Baby Goat Farm, which is located in southern Indiana and centrally located between Cincinnati, OH,Indianapolis, IN and Lexington & Louisville, KY. We are expanding! We now offer chickens, turkeys and holstein calves...
Baby Goat Farm is owned and operated by Sherry and Burt Tibbits. Our goal is to sell quality meat and dairy goats. We are striving to produce goats that will work hard for you on the pasture and show quality. We cull heavily and keep the very best. Which includes: Full bloods, Purebreds & Percentages.
We are working on having some of the finest meat goats available ~ low maintenance, disease resistant and very thrifty under range conditions; while producing some select Show Quality Stock. We really enjoy the 4H Wethers as they teach children responsibility. Our herd includes 40-50 breeding does and 5 bucks (Herd Sires) on our 21 acre farm.
This popular turkey is believed to have been developed from the Tuscarora Red turkey. The Tuscarora Red turkey was developed in PA by selecting buffs for a darker color. The Tuscarora Reds were taken to Kentucky were their development was continued until the deep reddish-brown color of the Bourbon Red was finalized. The Bourbon Red was accepted into APA Standard in 1909. Their weights are 33 lbs for toms and 18 lbs for hens. It has been a popular breed for many years and today remains the most numerous of Historical turkeys. This breed falls below the critical list of rare breeds.
We hope to offer the beautiful Bourbon Red turkeys in 2011. We can overnight ship poults or you can pick out your bird at the farm.
Our Holstein calves are bottle fed in the spring (Goat milk - of course!) and then turned loose on green pastures for the summer. Grain feeding really adds to their final weight. Cheaper and better than anything you'd purchase at the grocery store...
