Just A Little Farm

Just A Little Farm is an Ocala, FL breeder of mini LaMancha and Nigerian dwarf goats in Marion County near Gainesville. Jodie Hader has cared for these breeds for over a decade, conducting routine health testing, hoof trimming, and nutritional assessments to promote sturdy, well-balanced youngsters.

Their herd lives on a small homestead where open pastures, sheltered loafing areas, and daily handling help build trust and adaptability. Shade trees and safe fencing offer opportunities for free roaming when weather permits, and manure is composted on-site to enrich pastures and reduce waste. Hader emphasizes socialization from birth, introducing kids to gentle handling and companion animals to foster calm temperaments.

A focus on clear communication about lineage and health history helps families find goats suited to backyard or small-scale dairy setups. Genealogical records are shared with each animal, reflecting transparent breeding decisions. Many returning families note the goats’ friendly curiosity and steady growth.
