Welcome to our home on the web! All of
our breeding stock is CAE free and raised CAE prevention. We
test twice per year with WSU. We are TB/Brucellosis certified
and accredited. Does and kids are vaccinated every 6 months
with Bar-Vac CDT and Bo-Se and are de-wormed regularly. We
feed a 16% dairy goat grain with Perennial Peanut hay to
milkers and kids. Our theory is that good genetics can not get
you anywhere without great management! We encourage buyers to
do the same.
2009, where do I even start?! I started
out great, with Cee going 2x BOB and 1x Best in Show at age 9
at our district 3 Lamancha Specialty, and to top it off her
progeny won her 1st dam and daughter and 1st milking produce
of dam! Oh and her son's daughter was junior Champion at
the Specialty! Then the tragedy followed, Martini
was injured right after kidding by another doe. A sequence of
traumatic events led to her getting a hernia. Everything was
touch and go, but this amazing animal had true inner strenght
and a will to live. When the decision came for us to do
surgery or euthanize her there was only one option and thus
sacrifices were made! We feel so greatful that the hernia
repair surgery was a HUGE success, and Martini will be
bred again for 2010 kids!! In addition to this she has
STILL remained milking even after 48 hours of pre-surgery
fasting! We ended up doing two late fall shows. Martini was
GCH and BOB and that finished her! Then CQuin had her turn at
the North FL Fair and she was also GCH and BOB earning leg #2!
Our 2009 kids were shown once and were 2nd, 4th and 6th out of
21 senior kids.
