We employ a structured line breeding program in our herd in order to build upon genetic strengths and to eliminate undesirable traits. We believe in a structurally sound animal that is going to be productive&nbsp;in the parlor&nbsp;(exactly what a&nbsp;DAIRY goat is supposed to be!) over a long life span and more importantly, reproduce offspring that are improvements over dam and sire.&nbsp; </font></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"><b><font face="Arial" color=#006600 size=2>Our herd is heavily influenced on the LaMancha side by One Oak Hill and South Fork lines, we are very grateful for these herds to have shared these animals with us. On the Alpine side we have added a good deal of Walnut Fork and One Oak Hill to our herd and they seem to be blending very well with the lines of Sodium Oaks / Shahena&#39;ko that existed in our older lines. Thanks to Lynn Benedict for sharing some of your good ones!&nbsp; </font></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"><font face=Arial><font size="2"><b><font color="#006600">&nbsp;We practice a CAE prevention program, every birth is attended and kids are raised on&nbsp;powdered colostrum and pasteurized milk.&nbsp; We have been very successful raising our kids on this program.&nbsp; Our does are fed a 16% custom mixed dairy ration, free choice grass hay year round, free choice mineral, and limited alfalfa mix hay when lactating.&nbsp; We worm only when needed, rotating wormers. &nbsp;We also use in our program Triangle 9 and the CDT Vaccine as well as BoSe when needed.&nbsp;</font></b> </font></font></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"><font face=Arial><font size="2"><b><font color="#006600">In 2006 we skipped Linear Appraisal due to going on official DHIR test and making the trip to the ADGA National Show in Indianapolis, IN.&nbsp; There was only so much we could afford to do in one year, and after participating in Linear Appraisal for three straight years, decided that we would skip that in lieu of the other options.&nbsp; Our girls did extremely well at both!&nbsp; You will see our records included with each animals pedigree, all yearlings meeting the requirements to getting their *M. We had records up to 3900lbs and were very pleased with the high components of these individuals. SGCH Shady Lawn Classy Belle 2*M was #7 on Top Ten for Milk and Butterfat for LaManchas.&nbsp; At the Nationals we had several high placing animals especially in the LaManchas.&nbsp;</font></b> </font></font></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"><b><font face="Arial" color=#006600 size=2>In 2007&nbsp;we returned to Linear Appraisal and though the animals were&nbsp;presented &quot;as is&quot; for the most part due to the fire of our home just days before, we&nbsp;are very proud to say&nbsp;we had the highest scores ever!&nbsp; Including our&nbsp;Sr. LaMancha Herd Sire +*B South Fork SK Class Act 8-05 93 EEE and his daughter SGCH Shady Lawn Classy Beauty 2*M 4-05 93 EEEE!
