About Blue Mountain Goats:
Blue Mountain Goats are located in Northeastern Oregon in the beautiful Grande Ronde Valley. John, Ann, Alison, Megan and Briana Tanaka are the breeders, owners, and stall cleaners. We started raising Nigerian Dwarf Goats in 1998 and haven't looked back. We started with a single doe and a couple of wethers. The numbers seem to grow exponentially during kidding season, but luckily shrink back to a manageable number by the fall. We enjoy working with both 4H and FFA members that are interested in goats.

Health and Management: We've maintained a negative CAE herd, with our most recent testing by Washington State University (WADDL) in February 2008. In addition, we have never had a case of Johnes disease or Caseous Lymphadenitis. We are careful to only bring animals into our herd with these same qualities.
