AI Kids – Cabochon Farm

Angel’s AI Doelings

Posted on January 6, 2025 by admin

This Artificial Insemination (AI) breeding to a son of the stunning Reserve National Champion doe, SGCH Old Mountain Farm Shy Elk, was one the most anticipated of the year and Angel blessed us with three doelings! I just love Shy Elk’s strength and width while still being a very dairy doe. I believe those traits will really build on Angel’s strengths. I’m excited to add these new genetics to our breeding program and am eager to see how these girls grow.

GCH Cabochon PAN Believe In Angels 5*M finished her permanent championship this year at the Mid-MN Classic in Brainerd. Some of Angel’s best features include her long, level topline, her straight legs, her wide rump, her Rear Udder Height (37), and her Rear Udder Arch (37).

The doelings’ sire, CUatLilRedBarn Fuddy Duddy *B is the son of SGCH Old Mountain Farm Shy Elk 2*M EEEE 92, the 2018 Reserve National Champion doe. Shy Elk is a beautiful doe with great longevity. As an eight year old, she scored EEEE 92 with excellent mammery scores of Rear Udder Arch 38, Rear Udder Height 36, and Fore Udder 38. She is also one of the few Nigerian who scores Excellent in rump with a level Rump Angle (39) and impressive Rump Width (38).

Fuddy Duddy’s sire’s dam, GCH CU at Lil’Red Barn Abby EEEE91, scores Excellent in General Appearance, Mammary, Dairy Strength, Back, Rear Legs, and Rump. Abby’s superior conformation led her to success in the show ring where she became a finished Champion at four years of age. That same year she appraised with FS90 and the next year with FS91.

Nellie’s Twins

Posted on May 4, 2024December 1, 2024 by admin

It’s always fun to have AI babies and Nellie gave us a pair of buck/doe twins on March 24th. Nellie is a very pretty doe with a lovely topline and rump. She has a snug udder with great rear attachments and is a very productive little doe producing over 1,000 lbs as a second freshener.

One of the reasons I chose to AI Nellie to Dynamo Falcon Ziggzag ++*B, is because she has small teats and Ziggzag does a great job increasing teat size in his kids. He also passes heavy milk production and has several Superior Genetics designated daughters.

Nellie’s dam is GCH Cabochon Amelia 3*M VEEE 91 and her sire’s dam is GCH Cabochon PR Diamond Dust 3*M VVEE 88, whose dam and sire’s dam are both SGCH VEEE 91 does.

Trinket’s Doeling

Posted on June 26, 2022December 1, 2024 by admin

Trinket was AI bred to Aubrey’s Acres Phan Boy +B (VEE 90) and delivered a single doeling on March 30th. The doeling is long and wide like her dam with tremendous width between the hocks. She has the build and the pedigree to be an exceptional milker.

As a first freshener last year, Trinket milked an amazing 1,168 with 6.3% butterfat. She also appraised VVEE 87 on Linear Appraisal with “Excellent” in mammary. Trinket’s large, soft teats make her one of the easiest goats in the herd to hand milk. Both Trinket’s dam and sire’s dam are Superior Genetics does who have proven themselves with Grand Champion wins in the show ring and with award winning performance on the milk stand.

Phan Boy is well under the height limit at 22.5 inches at 4 years old and is proven to reduce height in his kids. He should also add longevity to his kids – his dam, CH The Schifsky’s TLC Farm Faith, achieved a Linear Appraisal score of EEEE 91 at 10 years old.

Amelia’s Twin Bucks

Posted on March 26, 2022June 12, 2022 by admin

Amelia was AI bred to SG Heaven’s Hollow Winter Soldier +B, a son of the beautiful SGCH Wyojem Wendy Kiki *M EEEE 91 and delivered two beautiful bucklings. These boys have the softest dairy skin you could every hope for will make excellent herd sires that bring proven conformation and milk production.

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 has two Grand Champion and two Best of Breed wins along with a Reserve Grand Champion. Amelia is the complete package with outstanding production milking over 1,100 pounds in her third lactation with 6.4% butterfat.

Winter Solier’s dam, SGCH Wyojem Wendy Kiki *M, has many outstanding accomplishments including:
-2012 National Reserve Best Udder
-2013 National Champion Nigerian Dwarf
-2014 Top Ten Milk Production
-LA of EEEE 91 at 8 years old
-Milked 1,470 pounds in 295 days

Sierra’s Buckling

Posted on April 27, 2019December 1, 2024 by admin

Kidding season is always exciting, but it’s even more of a thrill when you have a Superior Genetics doe bred AI to a Champion buck with 11 Grand Champion wins, 4 Best Buck in Show awards and the grandson of the legendary Twin Creeks BH Bay Watch.

Sierra finally delivered on this exciting match on April 16 with a single large buckling that is built just like his daddy – power and width throughout.

Sierra (SG Cabochon ZZ Sierra Nevada 3*M) is an exceptional young doe who milked 831 pounds as a yearling first freshener! We expect her to milk over 1,200 pounds as a three year old. Sierra also excels in the show ring having already earned two Grand Champion wins. And did I mention she received the ADGA Superior Genetics designation as a first freshener?

We are offering this buckling as a herd sire for $800.
