What a Riot!


Riot is one of our December 2014 babies, and boy is she ever colorful!  Tricolor and blue eyes to boot!  Riot is a twin, and mama Spritz is milking nicely.  Spritz is easy to hand milk and will be on milk test this year.




This little girl is long, level, and growing nicely.  I expect great things out of her!



Riot is disbudded, tattoo'd and had received her first CDT.  Riot is ready to be registered with ADGA and will come with her application.  She is eating great from a  bottle, and ready for her new home.  If you are unable to commit to bottle-feeding, we can work something out if you'd like to add this pretty girl to your herd. $350

Kid Games

Peekaboo's babies are here!  Twin bucklings were born on Memorial Day (5/30/2011).  They are both black and white like their Daddy, Lily Creek JS Bo.  Their names are Hopscotch (born first, weighing about 4 lbs) and Tag You're It (born about 10 minutes after his brother and weighing 3lbs 3oz).  They are both super cute and doing great on the bottle (taking just about 9oz/bottle, 3 times a day).

Peekaboo is milking well also!  She has great udder texture and good rear attachment.  She is milking about 2.25 lbs per day, which is good for only 2 weeks fresh.  And she is great on the stand!

So far, we plan to keep both boys until weaning (3mos), then sell one, either intact or as a wether, and keep the other for breeding.  We will be getting another buckling from a local breeder who is about the same age to be our other breeding buck.  So, considering I planned to wait to get a buck for at least a few years (and was okay with never having one), 3 months into this, we plan to have two...sigh, this is addictive.

Now for pictures:
