Sassafras delivered twin doelings on May 2nd. She had a very short and easy labor and quickly settled into motherhood.
Sassafras is a beautiful, structurally correct doe with excellent general appearance. She has always been one of those does who catches your eye every time she walks past. And the judges agreed because Sassafras earned her first Grand Champion win as a senior kid at her very first show.
We are expecting these girls to have exceptional milk production. Their sire,
Dynamo Falcon Ziggzag (VEE 90), has multiple sisters and aunts on the Elite doe list and his daughters are very heavy milkers. Our first daughter from Ziggzag, Cabochon ZZ Sierra Nevada, earned her Superior Genetics on her first lactation as a milking yearling and already has two Grand Champion legs.

Champagne gave us two beautiful kids – a buck and doe. Unfortunately she had a very hard delivery this year with a malpositioned kid and we lost a third boy. Many thanks to Dr. Nord from Mille Lacs Veterinary Clinic for assisting with the delivery and ensuring Champagne made a full recovery. Champagne is back to her normal self and her kids are thriving.
These kids bring together exceptional genetics for conformation and production from both their sire and dam. Champagne earned an ADGA Superior Genetics award on her very first lactation and at only 2 years old. At three years old, she won her third Grand Champion win in the show ring finishing her permanent championship, scored VEEE 90 on Linear Appraisal and milked more than 900 lbs. That’s a lot to accomplish at only three years old!
Ziggzag has excellent conformation (scoring FS 90 twice on Linear Appraisal) and brings phenomenal milk production. His maternal granddam (Zippy) milked an incredible 1,600# in 305 days. His paternal granddam (Fluer) won 6 Best Udder awards in addition to 3 Grand Champions and 4 Reserve Champions. Ziggy’s first daughter in our herd, SG Cabochon ZZ Sierra Nevada 3*M, earned a Superior Genetics Designation on her very first lactation milking 831 pounds as a yearling first freshener .
The quality behind these kids is apparent – they are long and wide with straight legs and amazing rumps. And they are so friendly that they are just a joy to be around. We are retaining both of these magnificent kids for our breeding program.

Cabochon CN Whirlwind Romance delivered twin blue eyed doelings on April 17th – just in time since I had to fly out of town for work the next day. Whirlwind had an easy birth and is doing a great job taking care of her girls.
Whirlwind earned her first Reserve Grand Champion win last year as a senior kid. Since she is a young yearling first freshener, we may wait until next year to get her back into the show ring.
We are expecting these girls to have lovely udders courtesy of their sire, Aubrey’s Acres Phan Boy. We are very happy with the udder structure of his other daughters in our herd.

On their maternal side, both their dam and grand-dam have earned ADGA’s Superior Genetics designation with their dam also being a permanent champion with an LA score of VEEE 91! On their sire’s side, the sires dam and grand-dam are both Superior Genetics does with the sire’s dam being a permanent champion with an LA score of VEEE 90.
