Aragon - Senior Buck DOB 2/02

4/2005 Update:

Aragon is a beautiful guy – powerful and well proportioned. He’s also a big sweetheart and so are the kids he sires. In addition to great dispositions, he passes on to his daughters wonderful udders that are easy to milk from well formed teats. He also passes on spots, speckles, and splashes – making colorful and productive kids!

2004:

His lineage includes very strong Canadian lines in addition to the exceptional Fra-Jac blood so we expect great things from him.

Guajillo 2001-2004

Guajillo (wah-HEE-oh) came from a very good Canadian line of dairy goats. He was amazingly friendly, sociable, easy to work with (for a buck) - really just a big sweetie. His daughters have beautiful, well attached, silky smooth udders that milk out easily and well. Good work, Guajillo! In addition to the great udders he put on his daughters, he gave them wonderful capacious bodies with strong toplines, plus gave them wonderful coloring and quite a sense of humor! We really enjoyed owning this buck.

Zippy

Born 6/19/2005

CAE Status: Negative

G6S Status: Normal

Linear Appraisal Score: 87 V+E

July 2007 update:

Zippy has grown into a powerful, good looking buck.  With bucks, when you want to see what kind of udder they will give their daughters, you look at the buck’s dam.  Well, Zippy’s dam, Sassafras, was appraised with an Excellent udder.  The appraiser commented several times that she had a perfect rear udder and even stopped his appraisal to gather all the people around to see it.  We are still waiting to see what Zippy’s daughter’s udders really will look like – but if they are anything like Sassy’s, they’ll be winners!
