Cascade Valley HB Infinite DSN

This girl’s pedigree is full of proven milkers, and it really shows! Her dam has been on the Elite list since she freshened, and her littermate sister, 99% ELITE Cascade Valley HB StarlitDesign peaked at 4.4lbs as a yearling FF!
Fin has a phenomenal dairy build and was our top milker last year as a 2F while also dam-raising her buckling. I’ve been very impressed with her so far.

Dam: SG Sand Stone Ridge MH SunSpotDSN 4*M, VVEV88 as a 3yo 3F
Sunny’s dam is SGCH Sugar Moon RB Mine by Design 3*M, E+EE90, Elite 99th %-tile

Sire: Joie de Vivre CT Hullabaloo *B
Baloo is out of SG Up At the O.W. Jubilee 5*M, a 99th %-tile Elite doe producing 1468 # in her last lactation. Jubilee's daughters have also made it to the Elite list and/or received their SG as FF.

Fin is bred to SDS Farm ZQ Hestia’s Helios and is due May 4th, with reservations available. 1st doe will be retained.

Erindale HH Little Snowbird

This girl stood out the moment I saw her. She was a very BIG single doeling and is VERY dairy, but not dainty. She is definitely the type of doe I like to see in my herd: large, expressive “doe-like” eyes, a beautiful naturally level topline, long elegant neck and legs, large and wide while still retaining a graceful appearance with length and depth for days. She has that “it” factor and presence. I would say that she is my favorite homebred kid but I can’t decide between her and Rain😆

Bessie’s dam, Belle (Flying H Farm Vesna) is a lovely, elegant doe but is on the more petite side. This pairing perfectly complements her weaknesses, adding strength while still retaining her refined features. Hoping for an improvement in capacity and udder height as well.

I was so pleased with how Bessie turned out, so this pairing is re-bred for 2025 April/May kids, with reservations available. Would prefer these kids go to a show home!

Sire: SDS Farm ZQ Hestia’s Helios *B
SS: Agape's Prize LenZip CQuinn *B
SD:SG The Hestia 7*M (Elite)

Dam: Flying H Farm Vesna
DS: Utterly Blessed Veles
DD: The Princess Anabelle

With kidding season right around the corner for us, I thought I should probably get caught up on last year’s kids. Life’s been a whirlwind these last couple years, and I’ve had to put the goats on the back burner for a while, but finally starting to get back into the rhythm of things.
I thought I’d start with introducing the keeper doelings from last year. Up first is the junior herd queen, Rain.

Erindale HH Kiki’s Rain

Rain is a striking doeling full of presence. She is linebred on SG Heaven’s Hollow Winter Soldier +B, and reminds me a lot of his dam, the 2013 ADGA National Champion SGCH Wyojem Wendy Kiki *M, EEEE91. This girl stands out every time I see her and is everything I was hoping for with this pairing!! I am looking forward to watching her mature and can't wait to get updated photos this spring!

Dam: Rain’s dam Cindy (Saddler Farms Cinnabon Cream) freshened with an outstanding udder. Super correct with tons of capacity, leading the first fresheners in milk production, as well as some of my senior does. Her sire is SG Heaven‘s Hollow Winter Soldier +B, who is also the sire of AGS 2020 National Champion and Best Udder in Show, ARMCH SG The Herra 7*M (Elite), and SG The Hestia 7*M, VVEE90 and Elite @ 2yrs. Both have multiple Grand Champion, BOB and BIS wins. Winter Soldier’s daughters have consistant high scores in Linear Appraisal as well as in production and the show ring. In addition to his own Superior Genetics designation, four of his daughters have earned their Superior Genetics designations. AND he is the son of the one and only Wyojem Wendy Kiki!

SGCH Wyojem Wendy Kiki *M, has many outstanding accomplishments including:
-2012 National Reserve Best Udder
-2013 National Champion Nigerian Dwarf
-2014 Lactation: In 295 days - 1,470 pounds of milk, 90 lbs of fat, and 67 lbs of protein, making her a Top Ten Breed Leader for Milk, Fat AND Protein!
-LA of EEEE 91 at 8 years old!

Sire: Simba (SDS Farm ZQ Hestia’s Helios *B) is a young buck from Old Mountain Farm, Agape’s Prize, Wee3Farm lines. His pedigree is packed with finished champions, milk stars, SG, elite, and great LA scores. I’ve been more than pleased with his kids so far!! Unfortunately, 2023 was a buck year, so he doesn’t have a whole lot of freshened daughters yet.

His dam, SG The Hestia 7*M, is littermate sister to AGS 2020 National Champion The Herra. She earned her SG, an LA score of VVEE90 and Elite status all at the age of two!! She has been on the Elite list several times, including 2021.

His sire Agape's Prize LenZip CQuinn *B is a sire of champions, consistently throwing exceptionally correct kids that excel in the show ring. Simba’s full sister also ranked 98th percentile in 2022. Top 2% of Nigerians in ADGA production eval. As a yearling ff!!

Simba’s only retained doe from 2023 freshened with a MUCH improved udder over her dam’s, and I cannot wait to see how his 2024 batch turns out!
Cindy is bred to Tyee for April/May kids, with reservations available. Would prefer these kids go to a show home!

Warm sun and cool shade under an umbrella. Now that's where I want to be!
