Lazy Bar J Farm - LBJF

Lazy Bar J Farm - LBJF, Savanna goats, Sioux City, IA, serves western Iowa. Dan Jennings has been working with Savanna goats for several years and follows recommended health testing and nutrition practices to support herd vitality. The herd grazes on rotational pastures with access to sheltered loafing areas, and daily handling helps the kids become accustomed to human interaction. Savanna goats at the farm are selected for strong hoof structure and heat tolerance, reflecting the breed’s South African heritage.

The farm’s management emphasizes parasite resistance and sustainable husbandry, and it partners with a local veterinarian to monitor herd health. Young goats are socialized from birth, developing calm temperaments that suit both small-scale homesteads and agricultural operations. Dan Jennings prioritizes transparent records of lineage and birth dates, which many buyers find valuable for planning breeding programs. This open approach to record keeping and personalized guidance has earned praise from regional hobby farmers.
