"Where we are proud of our Americans"

23Be diligent to know the state of your flocks,

And attend to your herds;

For riches are not forever,

Nor does a crown endure to all generations.

When the hay is removed, and the tender grass shows itself,

And the herbs of the mountains are gathered in,

The lambs will provide your clothing,

And the goats the price of a field;

You shall have enough goats' milk for your food,

For the food of your household,

And the nourishment of your maidservants.

Proverbs 27:23-27

Welcome to our farm.....

We invite you to visit our farm through our web pages. Visit the "ladies" and "gentlemen", see
their offspring, the results, learn about our program and see what we may have to offer you.

Past accomplishments included:

		GCH Willow Run Golden Ember earned her SG with a final LA Score of 90EEEV (2006)
		CH Little Shepherd Cupcake earned her final LA Score of 91EEEE (2006)
		CH Fancy Colors Hazel Mae Brown earned her permanent championship and was also
		ODGA and SWODGA Nubian Futurity winner (2007)
		INBA Reserve All-American Sr. Get of Sire: Little Shepherd Sitting Bull (2007)
		CH Little Shepherd Babe Brown earned permanent champion status (2008)

2009 & 10 found us contemplating which direction to take when we came upon several forks in life's path. First with family, and as a result of that, hard choices to make with the herd. We sold
90 percent of our herd and restructured with some new additions and added LAMANCHAS to
our program.

What we strive for in our does.......
We strive to breed structurally correct does, that excel in general appearance, dairy character, and
mammary. We want our does to be large framed, structurally sound and correct, milk well and be
productive for many years; even under the stress of traveling and show.

Our management program......
Since we strive to pay particular attention to the needs of each individual animal it is necessary to
keep our herd size smaller than most. We have around 10 to 20 adult does, several mature bucks
and a handful of young stock. We offer a 17% custom blend dairy goat ration, a quality alfalfa blend
hay and plenty of free choice salt, minerals and supplements. All of our kids are hand raised in
separate facility. Most are offered for sale, those retained are introduced into the main herd as
mature yearlings.

Current accomplishments in 2011 include:

		We earned nine legs for our herd
		CH Cricket's Kids Classy-Tai Joy earned her permanent championship with her win as
		GCH at the Ohio State Fair. Not to be out done by her herdmate Cricket's Kids Dainty Dancer who was RGCH.
		Our "show team" pulled together several legs for dry stock and milkers and most placed
		either 1st or 2nd in their classes. Joy went on to two more shows where she repeated her win as GCH and was the top milk production doe over all breeds at the Van Wert County fair, and went on the next day to win GCH and BOB at the Highland County Fair what a great year it has been for her!!!!
		While out-numbered our lamanchas certainly were not out done! Our yearling milkers
		Aubrey and Bananarama regularly faced off and won their class. Banana also went GCH and BOB at Highland Co. Fair and Aubrey's daughter Half-n-Half earned her dry leg as a jr. kid over a very competitive group of junior does.
