Raising Nubian Goats in Western Idaho

Sancta Grotto is located in Weiser, Idaho. We maintain a small herd of purebred Nubian dairy goats and we have livestock guardian dogs. Sancta means “Holy One” and Grotto means “Place in Nature”. The goats are raised with loving care and are from strong milking lines. They are reared on alfalfa hay from nearby pastures.

The Anglo-Nubian, or simply Nubian in the United States, was developed in Great Britain of native milking stock and goats from the Middle East and North Africa. Its distinguishing characteristics include large, pendulous ears and a “Roman” nose. Due to their Middle-Eastern heritage, Anglo-Nubians can live in very hot climates and have a longer breeding season than other dairy goats.

“Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths,
where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls.”
Jeremiah 6:16
