We are so pleased to welcome our two new Jr. Herdsires
Forrest Pride Missouri Sunray
Forrest Pride Wild Adventure
Merrigold Ensign - Lamancha
Ensign is our up and coming jr. herdsire who shows extreme dairyness and I expect great things from him. Ensign won Jr. Champion buck in Yorkton under Starlene MacGregor and Reserve Jr. Champion Buck under Susan Barker. His Dam, Merrigold BLV Enya, was Grand Champion Lamancha under both Starlene MacGregor and Susan Barker. Thank you Lorraine Keeping for the opportunity to add these genetics to our herd!
Ensign has been bred to a few yearlings but won't be used extensively until next year.
Triple C Tristan - Lamancha
Tristan has consistently thrown nice long kids with strong feet and legs. We've only seen a few of his daughters freshen but this year we'll see many more so we can get a feeling for what kind of udders he's passing along. So far, we've been extremely happy with his daughters. We won get of sire in Virden this summer (2009) and his daughter, Tamric Acres Una did very well in Yorkton and Virden.
Tristan's daughters have nice tight udders with good shape. Due to the fact that we have kept almost every daughter born off him, he will be for sale in 2010 or 2011. Please contact us for more information if you are interested in Tristan.
Roxey's Umed - Lamancha
Umed is a yearling buck that we only used on one doe last year, producing twin doelings. This year he gets to show us more of what he's capable of and will be used on almost half the herd. He's a buck with a nice deep body with a good topline, strong legs, and a good temperament. His two yearling daughters are maturing nicely and we have more doelings from him this year. Can't wait to see some freshen.
Trilyte Wesley II - Alpine
This year we added some purebred alpines to our herd and ended up with a beautiful buckling that we decided to keep since we're so happy with the does. These alpines are Trilyte animals from Susan Frazer's herd and we couldn't be happier with them. We currently have four purebred alpine does and a number of commercial alpines.
