The longer I have this doe here, the more I love her. She is very sensitive, and has to try harder than those with calm personalities to be a good goat, but she really does try.  She was sold to me because she was such a beast in the show ring at her first show that her breeder put her on the sale page in disgust--but she apparently had no intention of being shown the door again, because she always behaved perfectly for us, though it took some convincing to get her to walk with her head up. It helps that she is very fond of horse cookies. She has been everything we have asked her to be--great mom, beautiful show doe, happy milker. Thanks are due to my good friend Sunni for not only letting me have this paragon, but for not being mad that she has turned around so well!

Like Party, Chiara has a little trouble reconciling herself to being a dairy goat, but we think she is more than worth the trouble. Her second freshening udder is so much better than her first that I consider her a cautionary tale about making decisions about a first freshener too hastily. Her udder is very capacious, and when full, it absolutely does not move, and the rear view is just beautiful, even when the doe is at a dead run. I know this for sure because she demonstrates it to me every day at milking time. As always, thanks Kellye, for breeding such beauties and for sending them my way!

DOB 1/5/04

I have always particularly liked this doe's dam, Treasure (here's another udder shot)  who was RGCH on 5 occasions, and twice GCH. Sadly Treasure was lost to cancer recently. Andi is an absolute love, and a beauty as well. With that mark on her muzzle, she looks like she belongs in a "Got milk?" ad. That's appropriate, as she is a pleasure to milk with terrific teats.Thanks again, Kellye! For more pictures and information, including udder shots, click here to go to her page.

Dam:Flat Rocks My Shadow (Flat Rocks Pyrite x Flat Rocks Image)
DOB 3/13/04
LA 2007 VEEV 88, 2008 VVEV 89

A few years back, when I asked Sunni to choose for me the doe kid she would keep if she had room for just one more, Penumbra was the one. She epitomizes the best of Flat Rocks; our 2007 linear appraiser, Elizabeth Henning, agreed that she is one of our most promising young does. In addition, she has a personality almost too big for her body, and a level of creativity that rivals that of the Meg/Calliope line. She believes we should all live in interesting times, and works to make it so. For more photos and information, including udder shots, click here to go to her page.

Show record: 1 x 1st, 1 x GCHJr, 1 x BOB Jr Doe

This doe is very quiet and unassuming, until it comes time to make her way to the milk stand--then watch out; she is unstoppable. Obviously a dairy goat in her soul! For more photos and information, including udder shots, click here to go to her page.

Dam: MCH Little Rascals Black Dahlia 2*D E(Flat Rocks Flash +S 'E' x Piddlin Acres Miss Kitty *D E)
DOB 3/19/04

(Thanks, Michael Covey, for helping me get this picture!) For her cheerful and sunny personality, this doe is one of my favorites. She is so much fun to interact with and to milk that she ended up not getting bred for the show season in 2007, because her heats are very subtle unless she is penned near the bucks. The winter days just kept going by and I didn't want to stop milking her and move her to where she would show that she was in season--before I knew it, it was spring and she had stopped cycling. Fortunately Rio caught her on one of his clean-up visits this summer, and she kidded with beautiful buck doe twins in December. I just can't seem to avoid this situation with this doe; she will be dry in 2009. For more photos and information, including udder shots, click here to go to her page.

Show record: 2 x 1st

Sire: Piddlin Acres SC Maestro +S E (Piddlin Acres Shortchange x Piddlin Acres Concerto)
DOB 4/6/04
LA 2007 VEVV 88, 2008 V+EV 87
(Photo by Dennis Whitlock.)

Typical electric personality from the Meg line.This doe in my favorite bright chamoisee is easily the loudest forlorn maiden during her heat cycle that I have ever heard...and like her mother before her, nothing can stop her from making her way to the buck pen, either. Well, she knows where it is, and never wanders anywhere else, so we let her have her way, but it can be hard to wait until November to get her bred!

Show record: 8 x 1st, 1 x GCH Sr. doe, 2 x RGCH Sr. doe (received a leg for one)

2006 ANDDA All-American Milking doe 2 years to under 3 (tied with Party)

DOB 4/10/04

(Thanks, Michael, for this one too!) When asked recently which living goat I would take home if I could have absolutely anyone, I chose Pacifica's dam, Nonpareil. I am so happy to have her lookalike daughter, Sweetwater, back. For more photos and information, including udder shots, click here to go to her page.

Doe-Sy-Doe RHP Snowflake

Dam: MCH Stonewall's L'il Honeysuckle E 90.1 (Stonewall's Longstreet x Goodwood Penny Lane 5*D)
Photo soon!
DOB 4/22/04

Snowflake came here along with most of her herdmates when Heather decided to cut her herd waaay back in 2008. I feel very very fortunate to be the first one to whom she offered these outstanding goats, and I can't wait to see them freshen here. Thank you so much, Heather!

Dam: MCH Gay-Mor's LR Kitty's Meow 2*D E (Piddlin Acres Lies and Rumors +S x Gay-Mor's RA Kitty *D)
DOB 5/16/04
(Photo by Declan Dean)

We really need to get body shots of this pretty doe in milk, but she freshens early each year and we just never seem to get her clipped! She milks very well, and was the first doe in our herd to have earned her star on 305-day test. For more photos and information, including udder shots, click here to go to her page.

Dam: Flat Rocks Prize Patrol (Flat Rocks Flash +S 'E' x MCH Flat Rocks Surprise *D)
DOB 2/17/05

I absolutely love this doe, and I feel so lucky to have her here. Sunni, Ella's breeder, has retained her full sister Ever After, and considers her one of her best--and we can see why. Ella's dam is closely linebred on Surprise: she is both a Surprise daughter and granddaughter. Ella represents a cross of the Surprise line with a Kingwood descendant, which has proven very successful in the past. She is very elegant and level on the move, with great legs and feet and a sweet, cheerful disposition to boot. Ella's udder is a carbon copy of her beautiful sister's; for more photos and information, click here to go to Ella's page.

Flat Rocks Something Wild
Sire: MCH Flat Rocks Fox Fire 'E' (MCH Ponders End Minstrel Show x Lost Pines Champagne)
Dam: PromisedLand CP Bedazzled (MCH Caesar's Villa CBS Cowpoke +*S x PromisedLand Bewitched 3*D)
DOB 2/17/05
extended pedigree

She was aptly named when she arrived, but has become more friendly. The Wild one's littermate brother, Firecracker, is an absolutely stunning herd sire at Agape Oaks. Wild freshened with a single buckling under mysterious circumstances; she claims immaculate conception, but we have heard that one before. First freshening udder shown below. Wild is still very petite, about 19 inches tall, but was milking about 3 pounds per day. For more pictures and information, including udder shots, click here to go to her page.

Flat Rocks Tiger's Eye
Sire: Flat Rocks Gem (Flat Rocks Might Fine x MCH Flat Rocks Surprise *D)
Dam: Chisholm Trail Mystique (Chisholm Trail Tacoma x Chisholm Trail Elantra)
DOB 3/20/05
extended pedigree (Photo by Bonnie Chandler)

Tiger came here from the October Hill herd, along with her gorgeous daughter by Rosasharn's TL Cauldron *S, Kali. Thank you so much, Peggy, for thinking of us!

Doe-Sy-Doe FS Scarlet Rose 
Sire: MCH Twin Creeks Firestorm *S E (MCH Goodwood Weisbaden +*S E x MCH Twin Creeks Mariri's Zinnia 4*D E)
Dam: Doe-Sy-Doe's Honeysuckle Rose E 90.2 (ARMCH Goodwood Tom Thumb +*S x MCH Stonewall's L'il Honeysuckle E 90.1 )
DOB 5/2/05

Scarlet came here along with most of her herdmates when Heather decided to cut her herd waaay back in 2008. I feel very very fortunate to be the first one to whom she offered these outstanding goats, and I can't wait to see them freshen here. Thank you so much, Heather.

Doe-Sy-Doe RHP Hot Cross Buns
Sire: Twin Creeks RA Red Hot Pepper (Piddlin Acres Red Adair x Twin Creeks LS Suncatcher *D VG)

Dam: MCH Doe-Sy-Doe's Honey Bun *D E (Stonewall's Phineas Redux x MCH Stonewall's L'il Honeysuckle E 90.1)

DOB 5/14/05

Another of the lovely Doe-Sy-Does, as we have taken to calling them.Thank you so much, Heather! Bunny 's udder is gorgeous, much like that of her beautiful late granddam, Suncatcher. She is milking very well for such a small doe. For more pictures and information, including udder shots, click here to go to her page.

Dragonfly G Dierdre *D AR 
Sire: MCH Twin Creeks BW Giacomo Puccini *S E (MCH Twin Creeks BH Bay Watch +*S E x MCH-CH Twin Creeks WB Madam Butterfly 2*D 'VG')
Dam: Twin Creeks WB Summer Blonde (MCH Goodwood Weisbaden +S E x MCH/PGCH Twin Creeks Midsummernitedream 2*D E)
DOB 6/2/05
extended pedigree

Dierdre is pure Twin Creeks breeding, closely linebred on Twink's Pixie and Weisbaden, and is an improvement over her dam, Summer Blonde, in the area of feet and legs, teats, and medial suspensory ligament, while retaining Summer's nice qualities in other areas, including her sweet and quiet personality--all of which reflects well on her sire, Giacomo. A powerful little doe, she still receives lots of positive comments from judges on her sharpness and dairy character, which are more evident to the hands than to the eye. Dierdre would be 2/3 of the way to her ADGA CH if she had been registered with them as a junior doe. For more pictures and information, including udder shots, click here to go to her page.

Sire: Gladys Porter Zoo Leprechaun (Goodwood Z Ali Babba +*S x Gladys Porter Zoo Aquarius)
DOB 2/5 /06

Our February surprise! I really liked this doe as a kid, and so did the judges, but for the longest time the they always liked one other kid just a little more. That's okay with us. She looks just as nice standing in the pasture as walking in the show ring. She has a naturally level topline and beautiful neck blending into her shoulders. Leprechaun's get are known for their slow developement, and as Ceili is Leprechaun in spades, we think she is right on track. Ceili kidded for the first time with triplet does and a beautiful udder; couldn't really ask for more than that. For more pictures and information, click here to go to her page.

Show record: 3 x 1st, 6 x 2nd, 1 x GCH JrDoe, 1 x RGCH Jr Doe (ADGA)

Sire: Flat Rocks Gem (Flat Rocks Might Fine x MCH Flat Rocks Surprise *D)
Dam: Flat Rocks Sea Siren (Twin Creeks BW Riptide x Flat Rocks Charismatic)
DOB 2/27 /06

This doe is put together so well, I just love her. Answers to JoJo (loudly). For more photos and information, click here to go to her page.

Dragonfly WC Birgitte 
Sire: Rosasharn's SS Watercolour *S (Rosasharn's TL Summer Sol x ARMCH Goodwood Waterlilly 2*D)
Dam: Fairlea Clio 2*D E AR (Stonewall's Apocalypse Now ++*S x MCH Fairlea Heidi *D E))
DOB 4/8 /06
extended pedigree

(Photo by Declan Dean) Birgitte has a particularly level topline, a quality we have been seeking. Along with a sweet temperment and a lot of substance, she has one of our favorite pedigrees of the kids from 2006, including AGS National Champions Waterlilly and Eclipse, and ANDDA Specialty BOB winner and close Eclipse relative Heidi, as well as our favorite old man Paco in multiple places. Freshened for the second time with a lovely udder; this photo taken almost dry. For more pictures and information, including udder shots, click here to go to her page.

DOB 3/27/07

(Photos by Lorene Toth) Pandora, like all of our Calliope daughters, is very personable, and has that patented sparkle. She's my first goat to learn how to shake hands on command. For more pictures and information, click here to go to her page. Sale pending.
