GCH(pend) Rustic Woods MLC Envy was recently 6th place 3 year old at the 2024 ADGA National Show. Her mini-mi daughter was the 3rd place intermediate kid there. An impressive pair🥰

We were nervous Envy would also be Not in Condition to appraise yesterday after coming down with mastitis from Nationals, but we caught it early and she was feeling back to herself by yesterday morning.

Envy made us so proud going VEEE90 as a three year old 2nd Freshener.

Pictured are her and her 2024 daughter, E.B. Farms EV Sooo Jealous.

E.B. Farms MO Princess Zelda 1*M appraised today for the second year. So pleased with her at VEEE89 as a 2yo/2F

Zelda earned two milking legs this spring/summer and now just needs one leg to earn her permanent championship. Zelda was recently 15th 2 year old at the ADGA National Show in Louisville KY.

We are incredibly proud of this home bred doe, and hope for a bright future ahead of her!

Pictured at appraisal as well as her March born doe kid, who also placed in her intermediate age class at Nationals.

We will be highlighting more animals over the coming days!

E.B. Farms EP Iconic Sapphire was 5th place Senior Experimental Kid at the 2024 ADGA National Show.

Sapphire is owned by my right hand at the goat shows, Chérie Fresquez. I was so happy when Chérie asked if I wanted to show her!!

Sapphire is another doe who is sired by a home bred buck, E.B. Farms KV Pink Valor. Valor is a son of late *B SGCH Kastdemur's Valegro ELITE.

Sapphire will be bred this fall for a February or March kidding.

Nationals was a whirlwind. We will try to also highlight does individually on this page for those who follow our farm but are not our Facebook friends.

E.B. Farms HD Indulgence was 10th place milking yearling.

Indy's sire is Huricane-PM HSW Decadent. We have four Decadent daughters in our herd now, she is our second one to produce a mammary system. We absolutely love the attachment and fore udder that Decadent added along with such a level topline and a stylish, impressive and large frame.

Indy's dam, SGCH (pend) Majenli KF Malibu 2*M 91EEEE had a great week herself, placing 8th place 4year old and earning High 305 Milk and High fat honors at the National show. Malibu's sire, Mint*Leaf PBE Kodiak truly added capacity and production with that cross and Malibu keeps impressing us with her accolades. My heart goat is producing beautiful daughters that we can also be proud of!

Looking forward to many years with this dam and her daughters, both current and future!

Here and settled in with our goat family 💜 Ready to show some goats! 🥰

Yesterday was hectic as we prepare for the week-long adventure that is the American Dairy Goat Association's annual National Show, being held in Louisville KY this year!! Surely some panic will ensue by this afternoon! 😁

As a member of our National Show committee, we will be hitting the road very late in the evening today (whatever day it is now 🤪) to get there and work diligently to make this a great show for all. See you at Vet check on Saturday for those exhibiting!

Pictured is one of our Senior doe kids who was DISTRAUGHT yesterday morning that her delicious milk bar was finally taken away for good. She seemed to forget all about it, though, when she found the wine berry bushes are growing super close to their pasture fence line now! Here she is eating some strange viney twig... because... Goats?! 🤷🏼‍♀️🤣

That's a lot of late night side-eye-sass for our current state of panic before the big dance! 🤣🤷🏼‍♀️

Very effective LGD team here. 🥴🤣

Watching my money eat my money 😅🥰

Maui is not that loveable. But she does always ask for kisses only after she's been eyeballs deep in her sweet mineral tub 😂😂

Sorry Mau, but err no... 🫣

11/06/2024

Happy Tuesday! 😃

05/06/2024

It's a beautiful Wednesday. Here is our other Maui daughter, E.B. Farms MV Moonlit Siren.

Siren went to her first show two weeks back and was terribly naughty 🤣 Good thing she's cute, and beautiful 😍

Siren will be freshened for 2025. Cannot wait for that. 🩵

Deju Vu ?!?!

E.B. Farms MV Moonlight Saga vs her dam SGCH (pend) Pure-Delight Maui Moonlight 1*M EEEE92 at a similar age and then at 4 this spring....

Some goats GLOW UP 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 It's not everything to have a junior or even a one or two year old that comes out of the gate swinging... Those sleeper goats are worth diamonds and gold.

This doe kid is headed to the Midwest for a bright future, her retained littermate sister has a bright future, too! I really wish we could keep them all, but putting GREAT goats into other capable hands is so rewarding.

Love Pinnacle Craft Works for show awards!

A really cool project for a customer in NC. I made these etched plates for dairy goat milk jugs. I sheared the plates, etched them, rolled them to shape and used JB Weld to attach them to the jugs. This was a fun one.

Flaunting into the weekend. Another wonderful goat show with my best girl 🥰

With great ears comes great attitude... Or something like that.

Updated photos of the LaMancha raffle doe!

17/05/2024

We are taking the weekend off from showing and enjoying a nice Florida retreat ⛱️🏖️😍 but we wanted to share another does photo from the last weeks show!

3yo/2F Majenli LH Nashira "Shira" stood behind herd mate Rustic Woods MLC Envy in each ring. We love showing this duo together as they're best buds in the barn.

We retained one of Shira's twin does this spring but the other was gifted to a very special young lady in our life. Both are absolutely gorgeous and we are excited to watch them mature 🥰 they are sired by E.B. Farms LH Valentine.

Shira will be bred this fall to Mint*Leaf Phantom or *B Lucky*Star's RJ Premier, to be decided.

If you can see past the wild color of this gal you will see length, levelness, and a lovely femininity and dairyness that makes her one of my favorite kids this spring.

E.B. Farms MLA Malibu Sunrise "Reese" earned her dry leg at the show this past Saturday. We get lots of comments on how flashy she is, and the beautiful texture and pliability of her skin.

This will surely be a repeat breeding and while doe reservations are full, we have first buck reservation open! We also kept Reese's littermate brother, Cinder who we plan to use over several does this fall.

This was a Lap AI as Ash had to be neutered this spring at his current home and what we have for semen is all we will ever have! So we were ecstatic that the breeding worked out and is everything we hoped it would be so far.

15/05/2024

E.B. Farms KV Meadow!

Meadow was GCH Jr Doe in the second ring we entered on Saturday afternoon, and is the only retained 2024 daughter of *B Kastdemur's Vortex.

I am kinda mad at myself that I didn't keep both of the girls that E.B. Farms PT Lady Monarch gave us this spring, because Vortex is not very generous with doe kids. Still, I'm very pleased with the one we did keep. Meadow is a lovely growthy young doe and she will be freshened for 2025.

Not to be outdone by his daughter, *B Kastdemur's Vortex got two legs towards his CH on Sunday, making them quite the dynamic duo this weekend!

Well none of these photos really do her justice because it was so wet and unusually cold, but the cat (or goat) is out of the bag on this one...

Agape's Prize Khoda Hafez and Agape's Prize Au Revoir tagged along to the show this past weekend.

Funny story, but I got about 5 minutes down the road when I saw I had a message on my truck screen from my friend Melissa at Painted Pines Farm and I thought in my ADHD brain "oh they're bringing their Nigerians 🥰" and then went "DAMMIT! IM SUPPOSED TO BRING MY NIGERIANS" 🫣😭🤣 So turned around I did, and got back home to load up the forgotten dwarves. 🤣🤣 Takes some getting used to now having three breeds and managing two different herds because our dwarves would get dangerously FAT in our Lamancha barn.

But we arrived and settled in, and on Saturday afternoon these two junior yearlings strutted their stuff placing first and second in their class. Khoda then went on to get her dry leg going GCH Jr doe.

It was never my intention to get into Nigerians but sometimes life throws us or the ones we love some curve balls and we do what we can to navigate those. For me it was a no brainer to bring a group of lovely Nigerians to E.B. Farms to help them reach their potential and make sure they were well loved for however long they're here (some are here for good I think 🥰🫣) while someone I love gets the much needed rest I have been begging her to take.

We are working on our fall breeding plans for our Nigerian herd, we cannot wait to share them with you all.

Bucks!!

Sunday was for the boys! Still cold and rainy and I think we were all tired, cold, grumpy.... But we managed to show off nonetheless!

Mint*Leaf One Starry Vision was 1x GCH earning one leg as a yearling.

*B Kastdemur's Vortex was 2x GCH. He needs just one leg to finish his CH as a 2yo.

13/05/2024

CH (pend) Pure-Delight LSF Spirit "Solstice" finished her Championship with a reserve to a finished aged doe in the open combined show on Saturday earning a restricted leg, her other two legs were earned 4/27 at the Son of a Buck show going 2x GCH and 1x BOB.

Solstice is our second daughter of Lucky*Star's RD Fellini, so a paternal sister to SGCH (pend) Pure-Delight Maui Moonlight 1*M (92EEEE)

Solstice kidded as a 2yo 1F and milked over 500 days in her first lactation. She freshened again in November last year with one single doe kid, battled mastitis early, and is now confirmed bred for Sept with a repeat breeding to *B Kastdemur's Bonaire. But none of this stopped her from really shining in the ring the last two shows. Now she gets to relax at home and grow those Bonaire babies.

13/05/2024

We will start highlighting some of our animals who have been out to the past weekends show.

Rustic Wood's MLC Envy. Second freshener (last year was a miscarriage- abortion lactation)

Envy has bounced back tremendously from a very scary uterine infection and early labor resulting in lost triplets, and just not being at her best last year. She blessed us with buck doe twins this spring by E.B Farms LH Valentine

Her intermediate kid daughter E.B. farms EV Sooo Jealous "Jelly" was GCH Jr doe earning her dry leg in the first ring she walked into 🥰👏🏼 her son is staying local and has a herd of his own now, hoping he does great things for his owner.

06/05/2024

More rain = more mud. But that's not stopping this girl from getting out for a proper lunch 💪🏼😍 no set up needed, just a candid on the Lambar.

My FAVORITE kid from my favorite girl and boy. 🥰🥰 It really can't be accurately conveyed in a photo the length of bone on this doe, or how loose, pliable, and dairy her skin is 😍 and peeeerfect teat placement. Absolutely chef's kiss 😘 🫣

E.B. Farms MLA Malibu Sunrise "Reese"

D: SGCH (pend) Majenli KF Malibu 2*M (91EEEE)
DD: GCH Majenli DD Free Spirit 1*M (91EEEE)
DS: Mint*Leaf PBE Kodiak

S: CH Mint Leaf Rise from the Ashes (91EEE)
SD: Mint*Leaf Ember (2016 Res Ntnl Jr CH)
SS: Tideland Astin Martin

This breeding will be repeated this fall via AI once again. Doe reservations are FULL. A buck would be available. We have kept the buck from this litter this year. He is just as spectacular.

A goats dream? Or a berry-lovers paradise???

We aren't too good at sharing our abundance of Blackberry, Raspberry, and honeysuckle with the goats.

But can you blame us?? These are a treasure, and we are dreaming of pies, parfaits, and smoothies! This is only a small patch of the bushes that overrun our back property line. Soon, we will be full on fruit!

Okay, maaaybeee we will share a couple with the goats! 😉
