About the farm
Meet Doug Webster and the approach behind Aslam & Makkah — a practical, small‑batch breeding farm focused on calm livestock and clear communication.
Raise animals you’d want to handle on a hard day.
I’m Doug Webster. I started Aslam & Makkah with a simple goal: build herds and small groups that are practical for real people — families, small acreage owners, and working farms who don’t have time for unpredictable handling.
We’re not a “big inventory” operation. We keep our programs intentionally small so we can stay consistent with handling, observation, and buyer support.
What “temperament‑first” means here
We don’t claim perfection. We do claim a consistent process: regular handling, honest notes, and matching animals to realistic setups.
Handled with a routine
Calm comes from consistency. We aim for steady movement, predictable feeding routines, and low‑stress handling.
Observed and documented
We keep practical notes (dates, observations, and what we actually saw). If we don’t know something, we’ll say so.
Fit checks before a sale
We’d rather lose a sale than create a mismatch. We ask a few questions about your setup to help keep animals safe and settled.
Clear notes, realistic expectations.
Depending on the animal and season, we may share:
- Health & care notesDates and notes we have on routine care. (Always consult your veterinarian for your program.)
- Handling observationsHow the animal moves, loads, and reacts to routine interaction.
- Breeding‑related notesWhen available: kidding/lambing/calving history, maternal behavior, or sire/dam notes.
- Practical next stepsA short checklist for transport day and the first 72 hours after arrival.
