Kidding Schedule & Goat Sales 2022

***UPDATED 2023***RESERVATION INSTRUCTIONS***UPDATED 2023

We are making the following changes as we are beyond crazy busy during kidding season. We need to maximize our efficiency and keep the herd healthy by keeping numbers in check.

-- Reservations are verbal
-- Once I contact you about an available kid, you have 24 hours / one day to get back to me if you are interested in a kid.
-- If you want a kid, you will have one week to get a $100 deposit to hold the kid.
-- If you wish us NOT to disbud the price must be paid in full before 10 days of age.
-- Kids can be held until two months of age, at which point the full purchase price is due (or you will forfeit the deposit).
-- Kids picked up before 1 month of age will receive a $50 discount.
-- Arrangements for pickup will need to be made by two months of age.
-- Kids NOT picked up by 2 months of age will be charged $15/week boarding fee, charged at the end of each week.
-- If the desired kid is not healthy enough for shipping we will reimburse deposit + other payment received, and try to find another kid that would be a good match. This may not be possible.
-- Bucklings may not be available even if one is produced; we firmly believe that bucks must be something special.
-- Prices may change - as our prices are pretty reasonable prices are more likely to increase as we start milking the dams.
-- Please email us (dappleman AT mac DOT com) or Facebook message us if you are interested in a particular pairing, and what sex you are interested in, or if you have ANY questions. Feel free to contact us again around the due date, as mentioned above, we are going without much sleep during kidding season.

Changes may be made as our circumstances demand. Farming is never easy, and kidding season is stressful for us and the goats. We may not offer kids born out of a particular breeding if they are slow to mature, not of sufficient quality, or if we decide to retain them for our herd.

Available kids and adults indicated by yellow highlighting; if we are able to get photos a list can be seen on the photos page.

More kids will be for sale as the season progresses, as we cannot keep all the nice ones. A few of the does will also be for sale as marked. Watch on this page!

Click HERE go to a table of kid photos as photos are available
		10/16/21	03/11/22	Hazel has been a bit of a sleeper. After her first freshening, she had trouble catching. Her first freshening udder was nice--no surprise as she is Mocha's daughter. Hazel is quite striking; we really hope to get some photos in milk this year. These kids should be good-looking and milky... 2 does - P1 & P2 1 buck Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 13.5%	400	NA
		10/16/21	03/11/22	Ophelia (known by her friends as 'Opie'), has an exceptionally wide rump. Caruso and Opie are paternal half-siblings, so this is one of the tighter breedings for us this year. We have been impressed with this particular tight breeding that we've done with Cernunnos half-sibs, so we are occasionally repeating this tight matching when phenotype matches. Caruso's kids have been quite correct and showy. 1 doe - P4 2 bucks - P5 & P6 Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 20.7%	500	500
		10/17/21	03/11/22	Anesidora is a deceptively wide doe. This is a linbreeding with complementary phenotype. This is a repeat breeding - the kids from this breeding in 2021 were exceptionally nice, and we are greedy enough to want more of the same. My notes for this breeding were a little ambiguous, so we will be DNA typing to confirm. These doelings are all VERY nice. Here's your opportunity for some excellent stock at a great price! 4 does - P7 & P8 & P9 & P10 Click here to go to planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 11.2%	400	--
		10/16/21	03/11/22	Cavatina must have known what the last two years were going to be like, and took them off! We are super excited to see that she finally decided to conceive. These kids should be pretty exciting! 4 bucks - P12 1 long-dead kid killed two brothers. Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 10.8%	700	700
		11/18/22	03/11/22	Martina is a striking young FF doe that should bloom well with a couple more freshenings. Molokai is a son of SGCH Oak Apple Mocha E91 - hoping to double up on nice udders. 2 does, a month early. DOA Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 14.9%	300	NA
		11/22/21	03/13/22	Cernunnos line breeding. Themis is one of our up-and-coming young does; Perseus is out of Oak Apple Cassiopeia, who appraised EEEE 92 this last summer. Perseus had some pretty nice kids this last year--long, level, with consistently high thurls. 1 doe - P17 3 bucks - P18 & P19 & P20 Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 16.7%	450	450
		11/11/21	03/17/22	Linebreeding on some goats with good structure and exceptional general appearance. A bit of a surprise, she obviously caught on the first breeding (also to Maestoso). Will DNA test to confirm. doe - P21 buck - P22 Click here for planned pedigree "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 11.0%	300	NA
		10/30/21	03/21/22	Amelita is a daughter of Oak Apple Amelia, a Cernunnos x Piddlin Acres W Taboo daughter. Amelita had a nice FF udder, with good teat placement. This breeding should double up on nice rump structure. 2 bucks - P23 & P24 2 does - P25 & P26 Click here for planned pedigree "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 15.6%	NA	400
		10/29/21	03/21/22	Chiku is a daughter of Old Mountain Farm Mizuki E90, Molokai is a son of Oak Apple Mocha E91. This is a pairing that should create nicely attached, attractive, and productive udders at an exceptional price point (Chiku will be a FF). buck - P27 Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 13.5%	NA	350
		10/28/21	03/21/22	Mini Me is one of the top does in her to-be first freshener 'class'. Wide but still angular, she is a striking lass. Linebreeding on the usual suspects for our herd. 3 bucks Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 18.6%	NA	350
		10/30/21	03/25/22	Phenotype breeding that is complementary in so many ways. Repeated this breeding before we lost the very promising doeling from 2021. doe - P32 buck - P31 Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 9.9%	300	NA
		10/31/21	03/25/22	Julia is slowly growing up into a fine young lady. This breeding is a linebreeding on Cernunnos with some exciting additions--take a look at the planned pedigree! buck - P33 Click here for planned pedigree "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 13.2%	500	NA
		11/01/21	03/25/22	An interesting combination; kids should have very nice conformation. 2 does - P35 & P37 2 bucks - P34 & P36 Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 14.4%	400	NA
		11/01/21	03/25/22	This is a complementary phenotype breeding, and linebreeding on Cernunnos. 4 does - P38 & P39 & P40 & P42 1 buck - P42 Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 14.0%	350	NA
		11/05/21	03/27/22	Lakmé's full sister brava ended up doing pretty well in a few shows of 2021, and Lakmé resembles her sister. This breeding emphasizes some nice things. 2 does - P44 & P45 1 buck - P43 Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 9.9%	300	NA
		11/07/21	04/01/22	This should be nice. If we are lucky to get does out of this breeding, they are likely to stay... 2 does - P46 & P47 Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 14.1%	NA	500
		11/06/21	04/01/22	Mika looks more and more like her dam, SG Old Mountain Farm Mizuki 09-07 VVEE 90, every day. We are hopeful that the kids from this breeding will share the nice udder and production of the family. Hoping for does this year to find this out!!! Polled possible buck P48 Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 13.2%	NA	600
		11/08/21	04/01/22	A line breeding on the Beau x Lizzie cross (Tur-Beau and Ram-Beau being full brothers), as well as interestingly Fairlea Fleur (both Arwyn and Cendrillon share the same dam line). We love the general appearance and rumps (!) of both sides of this pedigree. Really trying to get close to the rumps of the larger breeds. 2 does - P49 & P50 Click here for planned pedigree "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 12.7%	400	400
		11/08/21	04/01/22	Andromeda has a rump with nice wide thurls--our goal is to improve rump consistency while keeping some of the good things we have going in our herd. 1 doe - P53 2 bucks Click here for planned pedigree "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 12.7%	300	NA
		11/07/21	04/01/22	Rimona is developing into a nice young doe. Hoping that the trend continues. 1 doe - P54 1 buck Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 16.9%	400	NA
		11/09/21	04/01/22	Linebreeding on some goats with good structure and exceptional general appearance. 2 does - P57 & P58 1 buck Click here for planned pedigree "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 10.6%	300	NA
		11/08/21	04/01/22	Mimi is so far as nice as any of her three sisters at the same age, SGCH Oak Apple Cavatina, SGCH Oak Apple Seria, and SGCH Oak Apple Buffa E92. Perseus had a consistent first kid crop in 2021, with some pretty nice rumps. This is a pretty close breeding (one of the highest inbreeding coefficients this year), but it is still complementary, and should yield some consistent and fantastic kids. This is a breeding that you should make a reservation for if you are on a budget, I suspect the second-freshening kid prices will be quite higher! quads, one dead mummy bringing its siblings down with it... 1 surviving very fancy buck - P59 Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 22.4%	300	NA
		11/11/21	04/04/22	This is a pretty tight breeding on Cernunnos. Chance is a son of Theia, a very milky Old Mountain Farm Helen daughter. Chance is owned by a friend, and came to stay with us a while last fall for buck collection. While this is a tight breeding, it still complements faults of sire/dam, while still hopefully keeping the good things that we like about the Cernunnos offspring. 2 does - P64 & P65 1 buck Click here for planned pedigree "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 20.5%	500	500
	Photo courtesy of Little Journey Farm	11/13/21	04/04/22	This is one of our AI breedings, and we're pretty excited about it! Tahiti Nui is the son of 2019 ADGA National Champion, CH Castle Rock Tahitian Sunset 04-03 VEVE 90. Patter is one of our nice young does -- she is a power house with lovely area of udder attachement. doe - P67 buck - P66 Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 10.5%	800	800
		11/11/21	04/04/22	There is enough ambiguity in our notes that we will use DNA typing if there are healthy kids. We are grateful for modern technology. 3 does - P68 & P69 & P70 Click here for planned pedigree when available --	400	400
		11/12/21	04/04/22	Arcadia is one of the few does that Flat Rock's Westley gave us--and she is one of the most striking kids of 2020. Hoping that this cross will produce equally nice kids. 2 does - P71 & P72 Click here for planned pedigree "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 14.8%	300	NA
		11/11/21	04/04/22	A linebreeding on our usual favorites. 2 does - P73 & P74 1 buck Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 12.3%	300	NA
Photo courtesy Joanne Karohl of Dragonfly Farm		11/11/21	04/04/22	Nina is from Joanne Karohl / Dragonfly Farm. Most of the Dragonfly goats have good rumps with excellent general appearance, and this describes Nina pretty well. She is small and slow-maturing, and decided not to catch last year, so she will be a three-year-old first freshener. Nina is bred to Perseus, whose first kids had consistently nice rumps. Polled possible 1 doe - P77 - polled 3 bucks Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 11.7%	300	NA

		11/14/21	04/08/22	This is a line breeding on the usual suspects. Chance is a son of Theia, a very milky Old Mountain Farm Helen daughter. Chance is owned by a friend, and came to stay with us a while last fall for buck collection. While this is a tight breeding, it still complements faults of sire/dam, while still hopefully keeping the good things that we like about the Cernunnos offspring. 2 bucks Click here for planned pedigree "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 14.8%	300	NA
		11/20/21	04/14/22	Tsuki is a daughter of Old Mountain Farm Mizuki; and Tsuki has many of Mizuki's strengths while being an improvement in shoulder assembly. Another somewhat tighter linebreeding on most of our usual suspects. 1 doe - P84 1 buck Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 18.6%	400	400
		11/23/21	04/16/22	Cassie has continued to bloom into an exceptional doe. This should be an awesome breeding, at least on paper! Cassie kidded on her own between checks; two did not make it out of sac. One of two unwittnessed births this year. Very sad. 1 doe 2 bucks Click here for planned pedigree. "Real" inbreeding coefficient = 12.5%	700	700

Adult Does For Sale
for sale sample watch for additions		Beverly is a good goat - milks well on the milk stand, kidded easily, and has decent conformation. She likes to do her job, but will require someone who speaks 'goat'. She does NOT like to be forced, and is not an effusively friendly goat either. She would be a good fit for someone wanting a sound foundation/brood doe at a very reasonable price.				$400
