November 8, 2011 Update

Well, breeding season is here and we are in full swing. Said we would only breed 35 but the numbers keep increasing!! Every time I go into the kid barn , I see these lovely big kids and just can't see keeping them dry another year!! We are so pleased with our Rendezvous and Mad Max daughters. Need to see a few of these young Toggs in milk.

We were able to get quite a few of our bucks collected. Fortunately we had our young Saanen buck collected as we lost him to urinary calculi a few weeks ago. First time in a long, long time that we have ever lost a buck to that. He was a handsome young fellow and we do have a few daughters from him. None the least it was a real lost for us.

We went to the convention in Michigan and had a great time and got to visit with Glen's family as he is from Michigan. We also brought home a new Oberhasli sire, Sir Echo Bricker's Ritz. Thank you Sandy Van Echo for sending him to us. We have bred him to our 2 Champion Oberhasli..Hot to Trot and Finesse. Thank you to Tecoa Seibert for our lovely little Oberhasli doeling.

This is the beginning of updating our website. This is going to be a major project as we have sold many of our animals and will be adding several new ones. Please be patient as I am going to go breed by breed. Hope to have it finished sometime in December.

Hope everyone has a great breeding season. Donna
