About Appenzell GoatsAbout Appenzell Goats





The Appenzell Goat, characterized by its pure white coat and mid-length hair, is a breed renowned for its robust build and excellent milk production capabilities. With a well-built body and powerful, well-positioned legs, this hornless breed typically stands at a height ranging from 70 to 80 cm and weighs between 45 kg to 65 kg.

In terms of milk production, the Appenzell Goat is comparable to other dairy goat breeds. During lactation, which spans approximately 270 days, these goats produce between 700 and 800 kg of milk, with a fat content of 2.9% and a protein content of 2.7%. Despite facing challenges such as the CAE (Caprine Arthritis Encephalitis) virus, which significantly impacted the breed's population, efforts have been made to restore their numbers.

With around 800 registered animals and a slowly increasing population, the Appenzell Goat breed has undergone extensive restoration efforts to mitigate the effects of the CAE virus. Today, the breed is largely CAE-free, reflecting the dedication and resilience of breeders in safeguarding and revitalizing this valuable goat breed.
