Francine Hays
Honey Doe Farm in Madisonville, Texas raises dairy crosses and LaMancha goats on a family-run operation that began with a simple need: finding milk their lactose-intolerant daughter could tolerate. Francine Hays and her family started with their first goats in Idaho in 2005, later relocating to Texas where the herd has since grown to nearly two hundred animals.
The farm operates as a partnership with KNS Farm in central Texas, allowing the two operations to work together toward producing stronger dairy crosses. Care protocols include disbudding, vaccination, and a nutrition program built around top-quality grain, alfalfa, loose minerals, and supplements such as kelp, dolomite, yeast, and rice bran. Clean water access is treated as a daily priority given the demands of Texas heat on milking does.
Those looking for dairy goats for sale in Texas from a working farm creamery will find that Honey Doe Farm keeps a mixed herd that browses naturally throughout the day, with livestock guardian dogs on the property to manage predators. Pest control relies on free-range waterfowl and native wildlife rather than heavy chemical use, reflecting the farm's commitment to keeping conditions as natural as possible. Located near Madisonville, roughly an hour north of College Station, the operation is rooted in hands-on, whole-family husbandry built up over two decades.
