Old Mountain Farm Derby Winner- SOLD

 DOB: 7/19/2018

Sired out of Lost Valley Legacy *S*B and out of Kyeema Ridge MS Black Shadow.   As if the combination of Lost Valley and Rosasharn genetics aren't enough, this little guy's dam is out of  Morning Star NR Moonshine- a littermate brother to a beloved goat that used to reside in my former Moxie Blues Farm (Morning Star NR Rosebud).  This connection makes Maritime's Legacy feel like a long lost family member.

  One just has to look at Black Shadow's udder (not filled in the picture above) to see the capacity, amazing MSL, and plumb/ plump milkable teats.  This collapsible udder is a dream to milk and one that I'd love to see in future progeny at American Jewell Farm.

Receiving her Superior Genetics designation, Rosasharn Peppercorn is a gorgeous doe with a beautiful well attached udder.  Again, the medial suspensory ligament is noteworthy as are the plumb teats with large orifices.  Photo of SG Rosasharn KB Pepper Corn courtesy of Kyeema Ridge Farm.

 A heavy linebreeding on Gay-Mor RA Kingwood ++*S, Laura Whitlock of Dawnland Farm writes of Legacy: 

"Legacy represents the best of the best of the old time Nigerian lines that were pivotal in developing these little goats into dairy animals. Although it seems like yesterday in my mind's eye, many of Legacy's forebears date back to the 1990's. Legacy was used for 2018 kids--and his two daughters and two sons are stunning. It's obvious that he is a strong general appearance buck with all of his kids showing improvement in width, top lines, legs/feet. Although Legacy is a small and refined buck, probably due to the degree of his line breeding, he adds stature and strength to his offspring."  We have one of those daughters (Dawnland America Jewell) along with Mariner Legacy and are thrilled to watch her grow here at American Jewell Farm.

 I asked Amy Kowalik to describe Nickita and this is what she shared:  "My Nickita girl is powerful, yet dairy, beautifully blended on all areas of the score card with sharp shoulders, long/ level body, beautifully attached mammary system that is very snug but capacious, beautiful medial with great fore and rear udder attachments."  Picture above is of Nickita's dam ARMCH Lost Valley KW Nala 4*D 3*M, courtesy of Amy Kowalik, Lost Valley Nigerians.

Terre Haute Farm Jackson is a long and wide buck who stands on straight legs and has genetics that is some of the best in the Nigerian Dwarf breed!  

His sire's full brother SG Old Mountain Farm Elton Jay +B and two full sisters, SG/GCH Creeping Thyme Farm Thelma 2*M, Old Mountain Farm Jewel 2*M have all earned their ADGA Elite designation!

On his other side of the pedigree is the only homegrown herdsire from my first farm, Moxie Blues Farm Atticus Finch.  He was the only buckling that I allowed to remain intact and went on to sire CH Secondwind Banana Fritter.

DD: AGS MCH Twin Creeks Hawk's Betty Davis 2*D, "E

DDS: Twin Creeks MF Pairie Hawk *S (MCH Raha Acres Twink's Pixie son)

DDD: Twin Creeks BH Homemade Vanilla 1*M 1*D 'E (Twin Creeks Braveheart daughter)

Bombahook Acres Farm was the farm that I sent my keeper buckling, Atticus Finch, when I had to sell all my goats for the move from Maine to Missouri.  The owner of the farm had some really lovely animals from Old Mountain Farm and Twin Creeks Farm and she produced some beautiful offspring.  Liz was one of those beautiful does that lived a long and productive life in a non-show herd.  I am told that she had a beautiful udder which makes sense considering her pedigree.

Cody's full brother SG Old Mountain Farm Elton Jay +B and two full sisters, SG/GCH Creeping Thyme Farm Thelma 2*M, Old Mountain Farm Jewel 2*M have all earned their ADGA Elite designation! His 1/2 brother NC Promisedland SS Deviant was the #1 Elite buck in 2017 and his 1/2 sister Creeping Thyme Farm Delores was the AGS National Champion in 2021!

Is there a doe that's made such a huge impact on the Nigerian Dwarf breed as SG NC Promisedland MG Diva 1*M?  I really don't think so.  This beautiful doe has progeny that fill the ADGA Elite lists year after year.

Being a granddaughter of the infamous AGS MCH Raha Acres Twink's Pixie 1*D 'E and  Twin Creeks Brave Hart +S 'E, how could Betty be anything but beautiful?

 DOB:  5/8/16

When I first saw the stacked pedigree on Hurricane, I knew he was very special.  To look at him, you cannot help but admire his straight/ correct legs, uphill stance, and true dairy strength.  He is long, has a beautiful front end and beautiful width.  His daughters are both productive and correct... the true test of any good herdsire.

Hurricane combines the lines that I'm already working with and is a perfect addition to our herd. He's a distant "cousin" of our beloved Beans and related to many of our Dawnland goats.

As a 4 year old, Maddie earned a linear appraisal score of EEEE '91!  Her great-great-granddam (Lenton Rose) is one of my favorite "OG's" that i remember from starting my first herd in Maine.  For Glenys (Kyeema Ridge Farm) to take those genetics and, then, blend them with some of the best from the Rosasharn lines was pure magic.  I love so many of the breeding choices that she pulled together!

I never post photos going back 4 generations but I so loved this doe when I first started back with Nigerian Dwarf goats in 2003.  I remember being in awe of her incredible length and depth of body as well as her capacious mammary system. Her daughter, Morning Star NR Rosebud "Rosie" was one of my first goats ever.  When I see her outline, even now, I think she is perfect.  Such a true DAIRY goat.

An LA score of EEEE '92 speaks to the quality of this beautiful doe.  Besides yelling the entire time and refusing to be set up, Tanunda was in the top 10 in her class at the 2014 ADGA Nationals at just 4 weeks fresh.  She earned two of her CH legs despite the fact that she hated leaving the farm.

Moon Shadow's sire (Moonshine) was the littermate brother of one of the first goats I ever owned.  I was a huge fan of his granddam, Gay-Mor JJU Lenton Rose!

Moon Shadow sired some of these amazing animals:  

CH Weedy Tavern Farm Lilly LA'93

SGCH Weedy Tavern Farm Naomi LA 90

SG Kyeema Ridge MS Black Shadow LA88

SG Kyeema Ridge MS Madison Blues LA91

and is paternal brother to:

Tiny Angels Levi Blues- sire to 3 finished champion daughters

"Monkey"  or "Cream Puff" made the trip from New York as a 7 year old doe when her owner was dispersing.  She had been there since a tiny baby and I am honored that she was entrusted to my care.  She is a Weedy Tavern Farm Lilly granddaughter and is a long-bodied doe.  My goal is to breed her to my Weedy Tavern Farm Lilly grandson (Beans) for a spectacular linebreeding.

DD: CH Weedy Tavern Farm Lilly EEEE 93

CH Weedy Tavern Farm Lilly is one of only three Nigerian Dwarf goats to ever earn a LA score of 93!   I think that Beans looks a lot like his famous grand dam and he also has that beautiful topline and rump.  In 2019, when I picked Beans up, I was able to meet Lilly in person and she was just as beautiful on the farm as she was in photos.

Tiramisu is a petite and flashy doe... black and white with heavy moonspots and blue eyes.  Jovi Terrell was kind enough to think of me when dispersing her herd.  Since restarting a goat herd in 2018, I've had a few opportunities to bring my old lines back in and this doe is one of those unique opportunities.  

AGS Moxie Blues Atticus Finch was my only homebred buck from my first ND herd and was born in 2004. 

These are old and very special lines that will blend so well with the herd that I've built.
