Jahdene Oviedo

Jahdene Oviedo, dairy goats, Brownwood, Texas. Oviedo has spent eight years building a small registered herd, ensuring does receive annual screenings for caprine arthritis encephalitis and caseous lymphadenitis, and follows guidance from the American Dairy Goat Association and local cooperative extension programs. Its goats roam on well-managed pastures in Central Texas near San Antonio, rotated to maintain fresh forage, and kids are socialized from birth with family members under shade trees.

The farm’s approach to feed includes a blend of quality hay, pasture browse, and mineral supplements to promote consistent milk yields and healthy growth. Milking routines prioritize low-stress handling and maintain detailed production records for each animal. Several herd members have earned placings at regional dairy goat shows and contributed genetics to local cooperative breeding programs. Regular hoof care and weekly parasite monitoring support long-term herd well-being.
