Complete herd tested negative for CAE and Johnes, as always, January 2010!!!!
We're using Jobi LA Thunder on our very best does this winter. His daughters have very capacious and correct udders that are easily gaining their dairy stars and really winning in the show ring, to include Best Udder ans BOB/BIS awards! He puts on nice high sharp withers as well as overall length, just an outstanding herdsire who scored an 88 on his 2009 LA as a 3 year old. He now has 4 first freshening daughters who were appraised in 2009, their scores were 85, 85, 86, and 89 - as First Fresheners!

********************************************** 2009 KIDDING SCHEDULE ********************************************
All of our girls need to perform very well in the milkpail in order to stay in our herd. We have been on DHI milk test for 6 years now! Our breedings are based on outstanding milk genetics with proper show stucture highly desired. If you want milk, consider the breedings listed below!
Our whole herd is annually tested with all negative results for CAE and Johne's, never any CL on our property! Tested all adults in our herd again in 2009 and all negative!
We have an exciting line up of first time fresheners for spring! We're working on their website but in the meantime wanted to let you know who will be bred to our most handsome young boy, Dragonfly DR Denali, out of Twin Creek's BW Nor'easter*D by Flat Rocks Diamond Rio "E".

*****************************************************************
The 5 does below have been bred to Boreas Acres Ricki-Tikki-Tavi, a wonderful buck out of Wood Bridge Farm Whispersoftly by Rosasharn's UMT Pippin *S. Pippin is an Under My Thumb son and we have had excellent success with UMT's genetics mixed with our lines here - and why we wanted this boy! His dam is no slouch either - a show winner this past year, Whisper has a gorgeous udder and can be seen on the Boreas Acres website. Ricky himself is a very handsome and well- put together young buck with excellent feet and legs and lots of width between his hocks. He is being bred to the following girls for May/early June kids:
Silveraurora JC Violet

*************Triplets born June 6th - 2 bucks, 1 doe

Doelings $450/bucklings $400
*********Ginger's daughters have done very well in the milkpail (AND show ring!) with nice attachments when she was bred to Sebastian for several repeat breedings. With Rikki's genetics, this boy should put some wonderful udders on his kids! Will be for sale if we decide not to retain him in our herd, yes he's that nice! **********
We also have a few late freshenings planned now.
Due Mid-July 2009 -
Jobi Chance bred to Jobi Cloud
Doelings $550/Bucklings $550
Single blonde doe kid born 7/19/09!
Buckling - SC 2nd choice
This is a tight linebreeding on some stellar Gay-Mor and Jobi Genetics. Doeling may be retained. I have plenty of confidence in both of these goats to produce beautiful and productive kids.
Bella Luna to Cloud -
Quints, born July 21, 2009
Doelings $500/bucklings $500
Buckling 1st choice - SC
5 kids, 3 girls and 2 boys, but one doe and buck were too small to make it, but the other 3 are big!
1 doe red and white Dalmatian pattern; 1 doe a strong bright red with white spots; and 1 almost white boy with dark gray dorsal and dark gold rear legs and butt.
Another breeding I couldn't resist, Cloud puts length and elegance on so many of his kids, I have decided that I don't have enough sired by him here. Pair that with Bella's outstanding mammary, this is a breeding that I've wanted to repeat for some years now and hope to retain her nice lateral attachments. She is known for easy birthing and this one was uneventful too. Bella is also polled. I will retain a doe, the other will be available.
And last but not least:
Dotty to Sebastian
Doelings $500/bucklings $450
Dotty kidded August 8th. Our lovely girl seems to have eaten the majority of the groceries and instead of having a large litter, she is simply too plump! HA! She had a single very large buck kid. Dotty will be for sale.
All of our goats are dual registered with ADGA as well as AGS!
We offer a discount on multiple purchases!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Reservations are accepted in order of deposit received.
We prefer to do pen breeding, allowing the buck to remain with the does for more than 28 days. This way we are assured that the buck has at least one if not 2 heat cycles to breed his girls. The bucks remain calmer and eat better when they live with the girls and we feel this is advantageous to their overall health and a reduction of stress on them too. We believe that birthing does in small groups also allows mutual care of the kids and allot of socialization and play time for them in groups like this.
*****************************************************
**** We reserve the right to wether any buckling if we feel that conformation
and/or overall potential is below our expectations. We retain the right to keep first choice out of each breeding. Prices for kids are prior to freshening and any additional milk titles. We will evaluate kids once they are born and reserve the right to make adjustments to our pricing at that time based on quality of the kids and/or freshening udder of the dam, but prior to birth prices will remain the same for those with deposits already paid. Due to the fact that goats are living, breathing animals, sometimes they are not up to perform their 'job' when needed. Rarely, but on occasion, we may choose to use another buck in our herd but will update this site (and anyone with deposits already placed) if this needs to be done, at which time you would be entitled to a refund if you prefered. Doelings and bucklings/wethers are ready to leave by 8 weeks of age - after 8 weeks of age there will be a $3 per day boarding fee unless prior arrangements have been made in writing before your chosen kid is born. We require a $100 deposit to reserve a kid. Deposits are refunded or may be transferred to another available kid if your choice is not born or if the animal is not up to our standards of quality. Deposits are NOT refunded on cancelled orders. Once you are notified of the birth of your reserved kid, you will be expected to remit the remaining purchase price plus any shipping/crate/health certificate fees within 3 weeks. If paying by PayPal, you will need to add an additional 3 percent to the deposit and/or purchase price to cover the PayPal fees. We reserve the right to refuse a sale without explanation and any deposit would be refunded. Thank you for your understanding! ****
