DIAMOND is the dam of
Jasper's
dam, Hidden Creek's Easter Sunrise. She is also the dam of
Grant's sire, Echo Hill's Ulysses. Diamond
has one of the best udders that I have ever seen on a MiniNubian. Her
udder is soft, pliable, capacious and milks heavy her whole lactation.
It is super well attached in every direction and is easy to milk. In
2005 her buck kid earned JR Res. CH. Her topline is incredibly straight
and level. Diamond also has a wonderful personality. I am very happy to
have two of her grandsons here. They are doing great things in our herd.

AMBER'S udder was similar in shape and build to
Diamond's. She had
wonderful attachments, great teats and tons of capacity. She has been 1X
GCH, 2X RCH, 2X BOB and 1X BUOB. Unfortunately Amber died in 2006. Amber
was a really nice doe and it is a loss to the MiniNubian breed that she
is now gone. Her sons and daughters will carry on her heritage. Amber is
the dam of our buck Echo Hill's Ulysses S.

WINDY is 75% Nubian and 25% Nigerian. She stayed a very nice size
for a 75/25 at only 26 inches tall. She has good breed character
and a nice udder. Windy has long, easy to milk teats and gives a
lot of milk. I have two of her daughters in my herd (Zephyr
and Summer) as well as several grandkids (Bliss
and Beethoven). Windy was one of
the last kids from our first Nubian, Muffin, and so is a very special
goat to us. Windy has moved on to bless another family as we had
to cut back on our herd. Thank you Melisa and family for giving
Windy such a good home! |

COWKID is 75% Nigerian and 25% Nubian. I was very excited when I saw her
udder - It is well attached and VERY capacious. Her rear udder is
excellent. Her teats are well placed and easy-to-milk. CowKid milked
about 5 lbs. a day. Her conformation is very nice. Her kids have
inherited her great udder and wonderful conformation and tend to have
beautiful Nigerian type colorings. CowKid is only 21.5 inches tall.
CowKid has moved on to improve some of the herds in NY. |

SOPHIE is full sister to our buck
Country Dreams Charlie Brown. She is
blonde with her color being white in the winter and a creamy color in
the spring and summer. 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) |

CLOUDY was one of our first MiniNubians and has contributed largely to
our herd through her daughter Misty.
Cloudy was a very pretty, flashy doe - black with white moonspots and
gold trim. Cloudy gave 8-10 pounds of milk per day! She has had
many beautiful kids on our farm. Her daughters and granddaughters are
proving to be great milkers with wonderful personalities. Her daughter
Misty, granddaughter Raisin, and great-granddaughter Grace, have all won
1st place in online shows. |

Muffin was black with a white star, frosted ears and muzzle, and gold
trim. She gave about 12 pounds of milk per day. She had a nice udder
with large, easy-to-milk teats. Muffin has given us many beautiful
MiniNubian kids. Muffin was a very sweet and affectionate goat. She will
not be forgotten! |

LACEY is a beautiful Nubian doe with wonderful breed character with
super long ears. Lacey has a very long body with lots of capacity. She
has a nice topline with a long, flat, level rump (although this picture
doesn't show it!). Lacey has a capacious udder that is well
attached and gives lots of milk. Lacey gave around 10 lbs of milk per
day. She is VERY easy to milk. Lacey's 2007 daughter,
Lucy, is also a good milker. Lacey
really passed on her extreme breed character to her lovely 75/25 kids. |
