Welcome to the Web home of TLC Farms Nubian Dairy Goats and TLC Farms Goat Milk Soaps & Body Care Products. We are located approximately 40 miles north of Bryan, Texas on 15 acres of rolling post oak savannah. Our "family" consists of our herd of Nubian dairy goats, plus numerous cats, dogs, chickens, ducks and a pair of donkeys.

Tom and I have been raising goats since 1992. We bought our first goats to have as pets, but soon decided that showing them would be a lot of fun, and we joined the American Dairy Goat Association in 1994. For many years we raised both Nubian dairy goats and Boer-cross meat goats, but in 2005 made the decision to disperse our meat goat herd to concentrate solely on the Nubians. We continually strive to produce what for us is the "perfect" Nubian—one that excels in both the show ring and the milk parlor.

We test annually for CAE and have had a CAE/CL negative herd for many years. Our animals are fed a 16% concentrate ration and Sudan hay plus free-choice minerals, and they are vaccinated and dewormed regularly. These days, all of our kids are removed from their dams at birth and hand raised.

In 2002, we began making goat milk soap with the excess milk from the does, and the business took off in a big way. Today TLC Farms goat milk soaps and other body care products can be found in numerous stores in South/Central Texas as well as on our website.

In 2005 we were very fortunate to acquire two bucks from Karen Senn, Kastdemur’s Next Key and Kastdemur’s Oh Zanzibar. As expected, both have had a major impact on the quality of Nubians now being born into our herd.

In 2008 we finally felt our does were ready to compete on the national level, and we made our first trip to the American Dairy Goat Association’s National Dairy Goat Show, held in Louisville, Kentucky. Of the eight does who made the trip, five placed in the top ten in their respective classes.

In 2008 we also added a third Kastdemur buck to our herd, Kastdemur’s Viento, who should complement and strengthen the genetics we are already using.
