"I MAY BE STUPID......BUT THAT IS NOT A CALF!"
Those are the words that started it all! Welcome to DKH Destiny Farm, where we have raised quality dairy goats since 2001. In the early winter of 2001 I went to the local livestock auction, to buy some calves, and I fell in love with an Alpine dairy goat (Tifdoroyal Licorice Lameya) that went through the ring, with papers....... of course bred by something. Later we purchased a Nubian doe and kid from Don and Sandy Miller of Firebird Nubians and another Alpine doe (Khamsin I Can Two) from Bobbi McFaddan of Ebony -Rose. ...Well needless to say, one goat has turned into a whole herd.
DKH Destiny Farm is owned by Dean and Kimberly Hellums and is located just outside of Middleton Idaho near Caldwell Idaho, it is an ever changing 6.6 acres. Our daughter, Amanda, as a teenager had her own dairy goat herd consisting of Alpine, Lamancha, Nubian and Recorded Grades, as well as a herd of quality Boer goats. Amanda had the job to "tame" all the kids, which she loves.
At DKH Destiny Farm we raise quality Alpine and Recorded Grade dairy animals, with a few Nubians. Our bloodlines include the ever popular; Waiilatpu, Hoach's, Tifdoroyal, Tempo Aquila, Thunder Ridge Nubians, Ludwigs, and Winterwoods to name a few.
I have been involved with dairy goats since 1980 during 4-H, with a long break until 1991, when my son, Justin, needed the milk as a baby. Then another long break until 2001 and the infamous "sale". Dean, my husband has been my greatest asset and support; He has been a great sport in this whole process, never having been involved with goats, he has been very helpful.
At DKH Destiny Farm we breed the animals that we like with focus on structure, longevity, size, temperament, production and beauty; in that order. We feel that without structure you do not have any of the other qualities that we look for; not every goat makes a pack goat, not every goat make a show animal, not every goat make a productive animal; although all add something to the mix, Some do not even make good pets. We know the lines that we are using to make any of the above animals; pack, milk show; our useful longevity in our Alpines is well documented. We know what works with our genetics and what doesn't, now that being said it doesn't work every time, no one can honestly say it does.
