Big Sage Livestock - SAGE

Big Sage Livestock - SAGE, American Red goats in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Kate Brewster has bred this hardy meat goat for more than a decade, maintaining registrations with the American Goat Society and adhering to annual breed-specific health screening protocols at USDA-accredited laboratories. The operation emphasizes genetic diversity to preserve the breed’s resilience in Wyoming’s variable climate.

The herd rotates through native prairie pastures to promote natural grazing behaviors and strong social bonds. Kids are handled daily and introduced to communal pens early on to encourage calm dispositions and peer interactions. Seasonal mineral supplementation and biosecurity measures support herd vitality, while deep straw bedding in kidding areas ensures cozy early development and reduces risk of environmental stress.

Several offspring have earned ribbons at local agricultural fairs for their conformation and vigor. Visitors can observe routine husbandry practices and learn about sustainable ranching in western Wyoming.
