Why Makgitle Farm

Built on hardy genetics and honest record-keeping


  • Kalahari Red, Savanna & Indigenous Veld goats — tick-resistant, fertile and well suited to our highland grazing.
  • A genuine niche: we breed deliberately for the solid red and solid white colours ceremonies call for.
  • A structured vaccination calendar, FAMACHA-guided deworming and routine tick control.
  • Direct farm-gate sales — you see the animal, its health record and its colour before you buy.
  • Low-input, natural-grazing farming that keeps the veld healthy for the long run.

Our Region

Matibidi, Thaba Chweu Local Municipality

Sitting 1,200–1,400 m above sea level with a mild highland climate and around 1,200 mm of summer rainfall a year, Matibidi's savanna grassland is natural, healthy grazing for small livestock — and home to a market that few formal producers serve.

Our Journey

A focused, phased path to growth


We prove the core goat operation first, then improve our genetics — a deliberately low-risk way to build a lasting farm.

Phase One · Foundation

Establishing the Herd

Secure housing, fencing and reliable water, then a founding herd of 15 ewes and 1 buck. Our priority: a high kidding rate and healthy kids from day one.

Phase Two · Herd Improvement

Breeding for Colour & Quality

We steer breeding toward the ceremonial colours most in demand — solid red and solid white — alongside size and hardiness, and begin selling premium breeding stock.

Farming Responsibly

Natural grazing. Reused manure. Healthy veld.


Our goats graze mainly on natural savanna grassland, manure is returned to the soil as fertiliser, and we treat only the animals that need it — keeping costs low and the land healthy for the next generation.
