Murciano-Granadina dairy goats
The Murciano-Granadina is a hardy, medium-sized dairy breed, black or mahogany, known for rich milk with high fat and protein – ideal for cheese and dairy products. It tolerates heat very well, adapts to grazing and semi-intensive systems and has good fertility, which makes it a strong choice for hot climates. We select does and bucks on selected farms to your specification and arrange testing, certificates and transport.
