Angel is a beautiful, solid doe who combines some of my favorite, heavy milk genetics. Her dam, Stormy has a very capacious udder with a TON of milk. Angel's sire is out of one of the best milkers we ever have had and full sister to the best udder we've had in our herd. Angel's FF udder is very capacious with very soft texture and easy to milk teats. She could use higher rear udder attachments. She also has lovely conformation with excellent strength, width, depth and dairiness. Her breed character is beautiful as well with a flashy coat as icing on the cake.

We are very excited to add this girl to our herd. She is 2nd generation and has cute airplane ears (the best udders seem to always go with the least correct ears, right?). Meda has a phenomenal pedigree packed with super capacious, well shaped udders and boat loads of milk. Lots of top ten behind her as well as Superior Genetics (SG). Meda freshened at a about 18 months old with a socked on, very promising udder. Her teats are still on the short side, but her area of attachment is great and her udder texture is excellent. Meda's 2nd freshening udder has improved her teats a lot although they are still the shortest teats in our herd. Her udder attachments are still stellar and her capacity has greatly increased. We retained one of her 2022 doelings, Swiss Miss. Meda's 2022 kids showed us some things about Meda that we didn't realize before... Apparently, she has some hidden moonspots and she has the chocolate modifier. She doesn't have many black markings being a swiss/bezoar combo, but the areas that look black, are actually dark chocolate. Fun!

Cami is a gorgeous, wildly moonspotted doe out of one of my favorite does by a buck out of another favorite doe!  Cami exemplifies what we are striving for in our herd.  She has good breed character and nice conformation with a long, wide, deep body, strong level topline and correct feet and legs.  Her head is very nice with excellent width and depth, good breed character & sweet, gentle eyes. Her udder is very close to my ideal with high, wide attachments, a strong medial, a well extended, strong foreudder, correctly placed and sized teats (that are easy to milk!) and lots of capacity with a good will to milk. Her production is excellent, she peaked at 7# as a first freshener!  She has continued to milk well in her subsequent lactations with a steady 5# throughout her lactation peaking at over a gallon (8#).

Milky Way was almost sold as a kid, but due to Covid 19 things changed and she ended up staying. We are SO GLAD! Her dam is one of our heaviest milkers with her main fault being that she is on the tall side. Milky Way's sire is very short with excellent udder attachments and correct teats behind him. I am really liking how Milky Way is maturing. Her ff udder is very nice with excellent teat size, snug attachments and good udder shape. Milky Way is long, level, wide. Her breed character is not as extreme as I like to see in a 5th gen, but acceptable.

Mystery is the last daugther of our Lovely Luna and one of the only doelings from Moses. Luna has a wonderfully attached udder that has held up well into her old age. Mystery's sire, Moses, has very heavy milkers behind him with high butterfat (his full sister was on the top ten list for BF in 2020). Mystery has a lovely, level topline, nice breed character and is solid black. Her first freshening udder is very nice with super snug attachments, good teat placement, a snug, smooth foreudder and very soft udder texture.

NONI is one of QUAD doelings that Crissy gave us! Noni's is one of our family's favorites to milk - nice easy teats with lots of milk.  Noni is WIDE and has beautiful conformation with a nice level, wide rump, excellent body capacity, a beautiful front end with correctly placed front legs and a strong brisket. She has a bit of control over her ears, but they are long, wide and well shaped. Noni's rear udder is HIGH and wide and very snugly attached. She also has a GORGEOUS foreudder - perfectly smooth and well blended, well extended and wide. She milks very well, but for several years kidded later than the bulk of our does, so has had shorter lactations than most. Her largest fault is that her teats are a little to far apart and point out just a little. Noni's 3/4ths sister is Cami, one of our best ever does and an incredible milker with a lovely udder.

'Itsy Bitsy' has the 'Ivory' personality that we love in this line. Plenty of sass, but very friendly and loving at the same time. She is a favorite of the human kids. And the milk and udders behind this girl and phenomenal! Her ears go with her personality having plenty of control to show her feelings, lol. But they are long and wide. :) Itsy has beautiful conformation with excellent length, and width and smoothness of blending. She is also a fun color being a pretty chocolate color. Her first freshening udder did not disappoint being very snugly attached with long easy to milk teats. Excellent medial division and a strong foreudder. Very nice production for her size and age as well.

Lava is such a gorgeous doe. I was REALLY hoping for a doeling from this breeding, so was extremely happy to get this pretty girl. Her dam is one of the best does in our herd with her only real fault being that she is on the taller side. I bred her to our small, 26" buck and Lava is the result of that breeding! I am really liking how she is maturing. Very well put together with nice breed character. She has been VERY difficult to photograph so far however. She has a poorly placed moonspot on her rump that gives the optical illusion that she has a short, steep rump. Her dam's udder is absolutely beautiful and very productive. I hope she follows in her dam's foot steps. Lava's ff udder is adorably tiny (in proportion with her small body), but super snug and has a lot of promise. Hopefully she will have higher production next year. Her butterfat content is one of the highest in the herd however. Her teat placement is ideal and I think her udder will end up being amazing as she matures.

Stormy is a beautiful doe with lovely conformation, perfect breed character and a fun, colorful coat as well.  Her udder is extremely capacious, consistently outmilking her dam. She is very easy to milk and has a very nice, snug foreudder. Her rear udder height and width is good when full, but she is so capacious, that except at peak production, her rear udder is less snugly held than ideal. She has nice medial division. Her conformation is lovely with a long, level topline, good front end with correctly placed forelegs and a good brisket, long neck and strong feet and legs. She has excellent width and body capacity as well. Her dam, Cami has a lovely, near perfect mammary.  Stormy's sire, Thunder, is from INCREDIBLE milking lines.  His dam milked 11.7, 10.8 and 9.9#s on her milk tests! She peaked close to 16#!!! Stormy also throws amazing kids and we have kept three of her daughters: Angel, Blizzard and Flurry.

SWEETEA is a very petite little doe that is extremely dairy and easily keeps up with the bigger does in production. She also quickly became a favorite to milk with perfectly sized teats with large orifices and soft udder texture. Her biggest fault is that her foreudder has a bit of a shelf/small pocket. Her rear udder height is very nice. SweeTea lives up to her name with a super sweet, kind face and eye and loves her people. Her conformation is also very nice with a strong brisket, deep, well sprung barrel, strong, correct legs and a long, dairy neck.

TAFFY is our first homebred polled doe and I am very happy with her. She is long bodied and smoothly blended with a TON of milk behind her. Taffy's dam, Candy has a lovely udder and great milk production. Taffy's sire, Thunder is out of a doe who produces more milk than most full sized Nubians. Taffy has met my expectations in the udder and milk department. Her udder is snugly attached with long, easy to milk teats. She has a well extended, smooth, wide foreudder. Her teat placement could be more centered and have a more defined medial. She easily earned her milk star as a first freshener with 1133# of milk and 53#BF. Her 2nd freshening she really bloomed and her production is over a gallon a day. Taffy also has a lovely roman nose and long wide ears. We have retained 2 of her daughters already - Charm and Swan.

Countess is from a repeat breeding - she is full sister to Noni. Her dam was one of our family's favorites to milk - nice easy teats with lots of milk. She also has an incredible will to milk. She stayed in milk for 3 years straight without freshening again maintaining a quart a day for over 1000 days straight (more at the beginning of her lactation of course)  Countess' sire is out of another family favorite to milk and he won his final virtual championship leg at 8 and a half years old in 2019! Like her dam and sister, Countess is a strong, powerful doe with good depth and spring of rib. Our favorite thing about Countess is that her face looks EXACTLY like her sweet dam. Same beautiful, gentle, expression, eyes and markings. Crissy is retired now and I'm so glad to have Countess to help fill her place. Countess has a VERY snug udder with excellent attachments and rear udder height. Her medial is strong. Her foreudder is a little shorter than I would expect and her teats wing out a bit. She is VERY easy to milk and a good producer for her size. We are hoping she can earn her star this year.

LUNA is a wonderful combination of her parents with smooth blending and lovely breed character.  I just LOVE this doe! She has stunning conformation with excellent depth and width throughout, a smooth topline, and strong feet and legs. Although her coloring may not be as flashy as some of the others, her quality and conformation make you notice her, and her personality is super sweet.  Luna's udder is outstanding with good capacity. It is socked on TIGHT with excellent attachments, medial and has a good shape and well placed teats. She produces well and steadily. Her udder has held up very well over the years with her udder still snug and tight and very correct at 8 years old. She was also able to earn her milk star at 7 years old!

LADY is all I had hoped from this breeding and more.  Lady's dam is gorgeous doe with lovely conformation and an endearing personality.  Lady's sire, Spice, is the perfect buck with super breed character, heavy, HEAVY milk in his background and lots of flash.  Lady got the moonspots from her sire.  She has turned out to be a wonderful milker with a socked on udder with excellent attachments, medial and has a good shape and well placed teats.  I couldn't be happier with her udder. She has nice plumb teats that are a perfect size for milking.  She is also milking very well peaking at over a gallon a day. Her conformation is very nice although her coloring makes her very difficult to photograph. When she is standing in the barn or pasture, she has a lovely topline with a level rump when when held for pictures, she stands with it steep. Go figure!  She has a well extended brisket, nice feet and legs, beautiful, smooth blending throughout and a perfectly lovely udder.  We have retained her daughter, Ella, for our herd as well as her 2018 doeling, Southern Belle.

LIBERTY is a gorgeous little doe who milks very well for her size.  She has nice breed character and a pedigree packed with MILK. She is very long bodied and deep. Liberty is a nice small, but capacious doe like her dam.  Her udder does not photograph well, but it is very tightly attached and capacious. She is one of the family favorites for milking and gives a LOT peaking at over 8.5#. Not bad for a doe under 25"!  I would like to see her teats a little closer together but overall, I am very pleased with her udder and especially her production. She also has rich milk which doesn't always go along with heavy production, so we are pleased in that regard as well. Her average butterfat over the year was 5.7% in 2017 with a high test of 6.7% and several other tests over 6%.

One of Moonbeam's last babies, I am very glad to have this girl.  Her dam, Coconut adds some lovely new lines to our MiniNubian herd.  There are high quality udders and MILK on both sides of Shadow's pedigree.  She herself is a beautiful little doe with a smooth, level topline, good feet and legs and a super sweet face.  Her breed character is pretty good for a 2nd gen 50/50 with mostly pendulous, wide ears that reach the end of her nose.  She has a beautiful udder that is very capacious for her small size.  Very nice medial, tight attachments and well placed teats (typical of Moonbeam daughters).  Her teats are on the smaller side, but still very milkable. Shadow is staying very small at only 25 1/4" tall at 2yrs old.  Her milk production is good - volume is fair, but where she really shines is in the butterfat and protein. Her average butterfat in 2017 was 6.4% with 4.2% protein. Excellent cheesemaking milk!

CANDY is the fulfillment of a long search over 5 or 6 years to find a polled MiniNubian that would not sacrifice milk, udders and conformation to bring in the polled gene.  This girl has a pedigree loaded with milk and she has nice conformation to boot.  She is also a very sweet, gentle and quiet girl.  We made a long trip out to Oregon to get her and she was such a joy to travel with. 

Candy's ff udder and milk production are amazing. She gave almost a gallon of milk as a FIRST freshener on her first milk test of the year. But the most amazing part was the phenomenal components - 6.4%BF and 4.5%P!  She is very easy to milk and her udder is held nice and snugly with strong attachments.

I didn't plan on keeping a Trillium daughter in 2018, but when this girl was born... I HAD to keep her. "Mimi" is the daughter of one of our best does who has proven herself well. Trillium was 10 years old when Mimi was born and still had INCREDIBLE udder attachments and good production for her age. Trillium was also one of our smallest does. Mimi has her sire's gorgeous breed character and her dam's lovely, level topline. Her sire's dam is a Trillium granddaughter and another of our best does with a near perfect udder, so I'm hopeful that Mimi will be the 'whole package'. Oh, and Mimi's breed character? OUTSTANDING. Beautiful long, soft, wide ears and a nice roman nose. She is hard to photograph because she is black, but in person is just stunning. She freshened as a yearling with a cute, tiny little udder, but all the components are there - well placed teats, good shape and attachments. Now to just wait for her 2nd freshening to see some more capacity!

Dolly is a beautiful doe with lovely conformation, breed character and a sweet personality.  Her dam, Molly, was an excellent milker giving about 7-8 lbs of milk each day and has given almost 11# in one day!

TRILLIUM - what a doe! She has WONDERFUL conformation, with a smooth, level top-line, strong feet and legs, tons of body capacity with a wide chest. She has nice breed character although her ears could be little softer and wider.  To top it all off, Trillium has an absolutely stunning udder.  Socked on TIGHT and very capacious.  Her teats are correctly placed and well shaped.  She milks extremely well for her size giving almost as much as some of the does who are several inches taller than she is.  She gave over 1050#'s of milk in 2011 with a 5.46%BF.  At nine years old, she produced 1198# in 288 days with many days of 6-7# of milk!
We retained both of her 2010 bucklings out of Star and they did great things in our herd with their daughters freshening with gorgeous udders that have excellent attachments like Trillium.  We also have two of her daughters in our herd, Mimi and Cami (as well as many granddaughters).

Trillium at 9 years old - still standing on super strong feet and legs, has a perfect topline and her udder is still socked on TIGHT!  Love this doe!

Cali is a combination of our nicest udder genetics and highest milk producers. Cali's conformation is gorgeous with a long, level topline, incredible body capacity with a deep long barrel, a wide chest and is overall stunning. She has lovely breed character with long, wide, pendulous ears and a roman nose. Cali's udder is everything I hoped from this breeding.  Incredible capacity, attachments, teat size and placement, the whole package.  And her production is excellent as well.  She peaked at 10# her second freshening giving a steady 7# the rest of the time! Cali is the new family favorite to milk as she is SO easy to milk it only takes seconds to milk her even when she is giving more than most of the others. We retained 2 of her 2016 kids - Eclipse (doeling) and Remmy (buckling).  We also retained one of her 2017 quads, Maggie.

Sadly we lost her in 2018 to a uterine infection from a dead, very decayed kid when she delivered. :( We are thankful to have her full brother (Tex) and several of her daughters and a son in our herd.

PARIS is a beautiful doe from a half brother / half sister breeding.  Linebreeding on NUTMEG, a doe that was a beautiful representative of the MiniNubian breed and a wonderful milker.  Paris has beautiful breed character with her granddam's gorgeous face, long, wide, penduouls, bell shaped ears and a very roman nose.  She has very nice conformation with correct feet and legs, length & depth of body and lots of width.  Her topline is nice although I would like to see a more level rump. And you have to love her incredible coloring with tons of spots and the Eiffel tower on her left side! Her udder is very capacious udder with long, very easy-to-milk teats.  I would like to see a greater area of attachment on her udder and for her to milk down better. She is a very productive doe giving nearly a gallon (8#) a day at peak and usually having a long, level lactation. She also has high butterfat.

Paris now resides at Howell Hill Farm in Pennsylvania. (we had retained her daughter, but unexpectedly lost her at a few months old)

BLISS is a super sweet little chocolate doe. She has nice breed character with a roman nose and fully pendulous ears. Her dam has a very correct udder and her sire is also from great milking lines.  Bliss has very correct conformation with strong feet and legs, good body capacity, a nice topline and is very dairy.  Unfortunately she had some health issues as a yearling and didn't take, so we had to wait until she was 3 to see her udder, but WOW it sure was worth the wait!  Her udder is super well shaped with long, easy to milk teats and tons of capacity.  The attachments are excellent and she milks well.  Her first freshening, she was giving over 6 lbs a day at less than 2 weeks fresh! Because her udder is the same color as her body, and it is so snugly attached, we have had a very difficult time getting good pictures of it. She has continued the good milking trend and has also given us many gorgeous kids - she even had quints in 2015.  You can see more pictures of Bliss, her udder and her kids on her page by clicking her name or picture above (same for all does on this page).

GLORIA is a beautiful, petite little doe with gorgeous conformation. Gloria is a more plainly marked doe, but has the conformation and breed character to make up for lack of flash. Gloria has stayed a nice height at 25" tall at 5 years old.  Gloria has a very tightly attached udder with long, easy to milk teats.  Her attachments are excellent with a smooth foreudder, high, wide and very tight rear udder attachments and a snug medial. She also has very nice, correct teats.  Her udder is hard to photograph (partly because it is so tightly and snugly attached it is almost hidden!), but in person is very nice.  She is not the heaviest milker being on the smaller side, but still produces a steady 4# a day through her lactation. See more pictures of her on her page.

COCONUT brings some wonderful new bloodlines to our herd.  She is a first generation - the result of a very nice Nubian doe bred to a very nice Nigerian buck.  Her dam, Coco is out of one of the best does at Kuhtz Dream Dairy Goats, CH Kuhtz Dream Goodlookin Carli.  Carli finished her championship easily and has been Best of Breed many times against some stiff competition.  She is also a good milker.  Coco's sire is one of the Kuhtz' favorite bucks and is from the famous Hoanbu herd.  Our Coconut is sired by a beautiful Nigerian buck that is out of good milking lines going back to Twin Creek's, Caesar's Villa and Goodwood goats.  Coconut is a BEAUTIFUL little doe with gorgeous conformation - loooong body, tons of width between the hocks and a very nice topline.  Her ears are quite good for a 1st gen 50/50 and her nose is straight.  Coconut kidded for the first time in 2015 with buck doe twins with good breed character and lovely conformation.  Coconut's udder is very nice with good attachments.  Her teats are still on the short side (her sire is a ND after all), but her orifices are large and her udder texture is very soft making it pretty easy to milk her even with shorter teats.  She is also producing quite well.

This adorable little girl was one of QUINTS that her legendary mother gave us at 10 years old!  We decided we had to keep one of her two doelings as we don't know if Ivory will kid again and we only have one of her daughters in the herd so far.  Legacy has lovely breed character. and a sweet personality.  She looks like a clone of her mother with better breed character. We are hoping that she will have the MILK production of her mother, Ivory, and granddam, Nutmeg.  The other daughters of her sire have had lovely udders as well, and Legacy's ff udder is following in their path! Legacy had a rough start with her kidding 11 days early due to two of her QUADS having died in utero, but her udder and milk production are still stellar!  Her udder is well shaped, VERY capacious, buttery soft with teats that are a dream to milk. Her attachments are good with a very nice, smooth foreudder. I'm looking forward to watching her medial improve as she matures. VERY happy with her first freshening udder.

I sold both Trillium's 2014 doelings out of Goldstone and I SO regretted it, so I decided to repeat the breeding and hope for doelings.  And I got them!  Marigold has lovely conformation from both parents, a strong milk background from both parents and an absolutely heart stealing face!  She got her sire's lovely breed character and is just over all plain stunning. Her dam is one of our best milkers even though she is one of the shortest does.  She has a socked on, super well attached udder. At 9 yeras old she is milking a strong 7#/day (and she's only 24"tall!) with an udder that is still very well attached.  Marigold's maternal half sister, Cami, kidded for the first time in 2015 and has the very best first freshening udder I have ever seen.  Marigold freshened as a yearling with a gorgeous single doeling and an udder that is very capacious. Her udder is soft and she has long teats. We retained her daughter, Blossom who is sired by Freddy. We are also retaining Honeysuckle, her 2017 doeling out of Honey Pot.

Jewel is a real beauty and a treasure chest of genetics.  She is the result of Sapphire (a Molly daughter) deciding that she didn't like the buck I had paired her up with and so getting bred to the clean up buck who happened to be her half brother (a Molly son).  So...  Jewel is a double Molly kid.  Since I LOVE Molly, her udder and her milk production, I am very happy with this breeding.  It turned out to be all I hoped when I found that Freddy would be the sire of Sapphire's kids.  Sadly, we lost Jewel as a yearling when she got into some moldy sunflower seeds...  She is sadly missed!

Her ears are 2/3 drop and her nose is very roman. She is extremely friendly and loves people, especially children. We retained Sophie's lovely daughter by Jasper, Daisy. Sophie's udder is tightly attached and well shaped. It is still on the small side, but I am hoping she increases in capacity as she matures (she is milked out in the above picture). Her full sisters are milking 5-6 lbs per day. Her dam is also a wonderful milker. (see 'Rock' above)
