About
Welcome to Daily Bread Acres, located in Longview, TX!
The name "Daily Bread" is inspired by a devotional my grandmother had called, "Our Daily Bread" that was filled with daily scriptures and inspirations. As a follower of Christ, it is often encouraging to see God's little nuggets of wisdom in farm life. From time to time, I get inspired and write about them, so if you're interested, please be sure to visit the Daily Bread Blog tab.
Here at Daily Bread Acres, we strive to raise beautiful, strong and hardy milkers that are also competitive in the show ring.
Goats have been on our farm since 2011, but we have only recently been able to focus on our goals for herd improvement now that most of our human kids are grown.
We have our herd tested annually for CAE, CL and Johnes, participate in Linear Appraisals & DHIR and attend shows as life allows us to. Since my passion is dairy goats, and my husband's is traveling (though he loves them too), we manage whatever we can as far as performance and try to just focus on what our family needs for the home dairy while also striving to put out our best crop of kids each year.
In 2023 we did a lot of herd building by purchasing the best stock we could, so we are excited to be able to offer some of these lines available to the East Texas area! Our lines include CA Blackberry, Lakeshore, Chigger-Hill, and Dair-E-Does.
We enjoy meeting new people who are as passionate about goats as we are, so thank you for stopping by and we hope to hear from you soon!

For Sale/Kidding Schedule
For Sale:
Does available:
DB ACRES Red Dawn $500.
Bucks available:
CA Blackberry's Phat Gingerale. He is priced at $1,200 but we are open to other offers.
Currently, we do not take deposits or reservations on kids. We have found that what works best for us is to see the kids, let them grow out for a month and then decide who we are letting go of. We don't ever know when we will decide which doe in milk we are willing to part with until we see them freshen, and milk them for about a month or so. If you see an animal or a breeding that interests you, please shoot me an email and I can add you to a waiting list. PLEASE let me know, because if there is someone you had your heart set on and I don't know, I will list them for sale to the public and you may miss out!
We are trying to breed earlier this year and may possibly have kids available this fall.

AI Bucks
Semen for Sale:
We are working toward getting some of our boys collected this fall/winter. If you are interested in having straws from one of our bucks, please let us know.
Also, please contact us for semen we may have available for sale from other herds. Due to the addictive nature of breeding goats, I probably have more than I will ever use!! I love mentoring, and may have some practice straws available as well as advice on how to get started with AI.
