Lost Valley TB Bonzai x Piddlin Acres Queen of de Nile
Diva is a special goat, and lets us know this as well. Although Diva is our oldest goat, she has a more youthful appearance than her age. Our appraiser thought she was half her age! We want to perpetuate her longevity and dairy appearance. Diva had buck doe twins this spring, and will now enjoy retirement. Thanks to Dan Witt of Snowberry Springs for making her available, and thanks to Valerie Russell of Piddlin Acres for breeding her (and allowing us to post the above photos).

Not the best pictures of this nice doe. We are extremely excited to have this daughter of NC Promisedland Palita here! Palita has an exceptional milk production history, milking over 1,000 pounds her first lactation, and makes a consistent appearance on the top ten list. To top that off, Palita appraised 90EEEE. Mizuki herself brings style and elegance while still being well within height, and excellent milk potential as well. Her daughters have been milky and strong.

Malva is a powerhouse doe. Her daughter Lady Slipper is a more refined creature. We lost Malva in 2017; her kid had died in utero and required a c-section to get out. Unfortunately Malva did not survive the surgery--she was probably already septic. We are devastated. Click here to go to her page.

Lady is one of those goats that is happy to do what her goatherds wish, and her demeanor lives up to her name. She is missed. She goes on the milkstand easily, lets down her milk quickly, and likes her job. She was hard to dry off this last year! Her sister Camanna RM Tressa is a finished champion, and her GCH dam appraised exceptionally well as an aged doe. Lady shares many of her family's good traits. Pictured dry above. Lady now resides with Lorelei Hallock of Coyote Creek Dairy.

I met Lady Slipper at the 2016 Oregon State Fair as she was being shown by Anna Brown. I like her nice high, level thurls, which are hard to appreciate in the photo below. Her rump is also long. We are hoping that she will blend well with our breeding program. Thanks to Anna Brown of Camanna's Petite Paradise for letting Lady Slipper and her dam, Old Mountain Farm Malva, join our herd. Arturo (Lady Slipper's sire) is related to our Sugar Moon V Java Pepper, who has been one of our best milk producers. Looking forward to stylish kids with great milk potential!

Rainflower freshened with a nice udder that needs more capacity, but everything is placed nicely. Since going to live with Tanya Callison of Gabhran Creek, she freshened with a phenomenal udder, good enough to win Best Udder in Show over all breeds. Side photo above is milked out. Thanks to Kellye Bussey for letting Rainflower come to our herd. Rainflower is the dam of Oak Apple Trillium.

CRF Castle Rock Guy Noir +B x GCH Castle Rock Snownamie 2*M 90 VEEE
Snegurochka, aka 'Snegs', is Russian for 'snowmaiden'. I visited Sarah Hawkins of Castle Rock Farm in 2012 and was smitten with Castle Rock Snownamie, Snegs' dam. I love Snownamie's length of body, udder, and general appearance. Snegurochka has an excellent area of attachment; she has started to come into her own this winter; we are hoping that she blossoms in 2017. Snegs was reserved long before her illustrious maternal half sister CH Castle Rock Flash Flood was awarded breed Champion at the 2015 ADGA Nationals. Click here to go to her page.

Old Mountain Farm Keidan Quinn x Old Mountain Farm Sideways 7 1*M
April is loooonnnngg and level. April has incredible length of body and strength of topline. Her udder is well-attached and milks easily. April needs more capacity to see what she is all about, and will probably mature with her third or fourth freshening. She has many illustrious udders in her pedigree, so we are hopeful--I am trying to be patient! April's sire is a full brother to our herdsire, Old Mountain Farm Cernunnos.

Zarzuela is close enough in general appearance that she can be confused with her dam Opera on a casual glance. There are differences; Zarzuela has a better rump but lacks the body capacity (yet) that is needed to distinguish herself. She is starting to gain some capacity even after the 2016 photos were taken.

Sugar Moon Viva Las Vegas *B x SG Sugar Moon Sage 4*M VEVE 90
Java has a fan club, not just because of her conformation, but also because of her sweet temperament. Java's dam, Sage, produced 950 pounds of milk in a 276 day lactation as a two-year-old, and again did well at this year's appraisal. Java has exceptional will to milk. Unlike most of our herd, it is hard to keep weight on Java as most of her feed goes right into the milk pail. Java doubles up closely on Old Mountan Farm Black Tulip, and produced two exceptionally lovely doelings by Old Mountain Farm Cernunnos this year. Java was appraised shortly after kidding this year.

I became an admirer of Kru's dam Oreo when I saw Oreo late the summer of 2016. I love Oreo's length of body, and what an udder! Kru has her dam's length of boddy and strength, and we are looking forward to her next lactation. Photos to come next year--it was much too cold to clip when Kru arrived on our farm. We have retained a daughter by Flat Rock's Westley, Oak Apple Aziza. Click here to go to Krugerrand's page.

Helen has developed into a lovely doe, and was very appreciated by our appraiser this year for her width, udder arch and total area of attachment. I absolutely admire Helen's dam, Promisedland Nemesis, who embodies the width and dairy character that our breed needs. I was fortunate enough to see Nemesis ("Sissy") in person in 2017.

Boadicea is named after a Celtic queen who defended her people against the Romans. Boadicea was another surprise for us at the 2015 ADGA nationals, and placed 10th in her huge kid class. I like this doe's body--length of rump, chest floor, and long, level back, all on strong feet and legs. She is a sweetie, too! This breeding was repeated for 2016, which resulted in four lovely sisters. Click here to go to Boadicea's page.

Trillium left our herd for a while, but is now back, which is a good thing. She freshened with a promising udder, and is milking well.

Macchiato and Marochino were two of three doelings that we had trouble deciding between. We have reluctantly decided to let Marocchino go. They have good rump structure, and will hopefully follow in their dam's hoofsteps in the milk and udder department. Contact us if you might be interested in one of these sisters as we will be letting one of them leave our after they freshen in 2018...
