Juniper’s Twin Bucks

Cabochon WM Juniper 5*M easily delivered twin bucklings on Feb 15th. This is a repeat breeding to Cabochon XY Prosecco because we really liked the resulting kid last year. These boy are both looking very promising and may be available as herd sires. As a bonus, both of the boys are have Juniper’s stunning blue eyes.

Juniper is a beautiful doe with outstanding dairy strength. She has a long, lean neck and incredible width. Some of Juniper’s strongest confromational points are her shoulder assembly, rear legs, back and rump. While Juniper only had a single as a first freshener, I am very happy with her udder and am excited to see the increased capacity she gets with her second freshening. Juniper’s teats are wide (35), long (40) and exceptionally easy to milk. As a yearling, she already had very nice foreudder extension (34), height (34) and arch (30). Juniper won her Grand Champion junior leg at her very first show. As a bonus, her blue eyes and moon spots make her a standout in the herd.

Prosecco is a stong buck whose daughters have amazing udders with excellent attachments and large, well-placed teats. I have three milking daughters who have all appraised “Excellent” on mammary and who millk 1,000-1,200 pounds. One is already a finished champion at three years old. I retained another doeling last year who earned her first leg with a Grand Champion as a junior. Prosecco is the son of SGCH Carl B’s OH Sweet Champagne *M LA: VEEE 91. His sire’s dam is also a Superior Genetics VEEE 90 doe, SG Pocket Sized TB Xara.

Amelia’s Twin Does

GCH (pending) Cabochon Amelia 3*M VEEE 91 delivered twin doelings on January 21st. This is a much anticipated breeding to Cabochon XY Prosecco and I’m planning to retain one of the girls with the other avialable to a performance home.

Amelia is a classically beautiful goat with a Linear Appraisal score VEEE 91 as a six year old topping her four year old score of VEEE 90. Amelia finished her permanent championship this year at seven years old and milked 1,091 lbs in 294 days, cutting her lactation a bit short so we could bump up to an ealier kidding date.

Amber’s Triplets

Cabochon DP Amber 3*M kicked off our 2023 kidding season with a set of triplets on January 19th. She had a quick, easy birth and never missed a beat transitioning into her second lactation. The kids are thriving and are excellent prospects for show, 4H and home milkers. All three kids are available as of this posting.

Amber milked well as first freshener last year producing 822 lbs in 277 days. (We shortened her lactation in order to bump her up to a January kidding date this year.) Some of Amber’s strongest traits are her wide (31), level (30) rump; and her rear udder height (34). Amber had a very nice first freshening udder scoring “V” on appraisal with ideal teat placement (27). I’m excited to see how she looks as a second freshener this year.

The kids’ sire, Cabochon DJ Casanova *B, is the son of GCH (pending) Liberty Star Acres Annabelle 2*M EEEV 90 who has exceptional longevity, winning her latest Grand Championship at 11 years old at the highly competitive Bluff Country show. Casanova’s daughters have multiple show wins and production awards including a Superior Genetics daughter, SG Cabochon CN Whatchamacallit 2*M VEEV 90.
