Quest EnclaveTM is located in the Northern California foothills of the Sierra Mountain Range about an hour North East of Sacramento. Quest EnclaveTM specializes in the medium size dairy goat Miniature LaManchas, or Mini Manchas. Mini Manchas are a cross of the LaMancha dairy goat with the Nigerian Dwarf dairy goat.
Mini Manchas
are small, easy keepers, about two to two and a half feet tall at the
shoulder when full grown. We strive to have excellent temperaments and
complement that with imprinting our kids from the moment they are born.
Imprinting was developed by the Veterinarian Dr. Murphy, and creates a
bond between living things.
Benefits to owing a Mini Mancha are great and
many. They are excellent pets if imprinted at birth and raised
properly, much like a vegeterian dog. They provide organic fertilizer
for your plants and garden if you feed your Mini Manchas organic feed,
brouse, and natural minerals. They are very good for brush clearing,
and all this is highlighted by the fact that they produce excellent
nutritious milk that may be used to make butter, cheese, and more. If
you want, you may milk them once a day. Yes, you will get slighlty less
milk, however I have found that it is much easier on the doe and also
saves you precious time in your day :D
We can easily transport our Mini Manchas in crates in our car, as they are the perfect size. They are great brush keepers for fire prone areas, and if you don't have pasture, they eat much less than standard breed dairy goats, some say around half as much. Since they have the Nigerian Dwarf influence, it is possible to rotate milk production for a year around supply between two goats. The LaMancha genes contribute a decent quantity of milk and the Nigerian Dwarf contributes hardiness, a medium size, and great creaminess for the perfect milk!
