Ahsum Pygmies

Ahsum Pygmies is a pygmy goat breeder in Peoria, Arizona, serving Maricopa County near Phoenix. Founded by April and Susan Seiler, it has nurtured healthy herds for many years with foundation animals from well-known bloodlines and routinely tests both does and bucks for common herd health concerns. The farm’s breeding philosophy emphasizes sound conformation, genetic diversity, and gentle temperament through selective pairing and detailed pedigree research.

Goats graze on rotational pastures enhanced with natural browse, wood logs, and salt licks to encourage healthy foraging behavior. Shelters are designed to protect against the desert southwest’s temperature extremes, and fresh water is available at all times, including heated buckets in cooler months. Daily interactions and early bottle-feeding ensure that kids develop comfort and confidence around people. Ahsum Pygmies holds membership in respected goat associations, follows regular hoof trimming, vaccination, and parasite management schedules, and shares care guidelines with all new owners.
