2023 Breeding Schedule is in progress at last!
There are some awesome genetics coming in 2023 from our lovely ladies and handsome lads! I will be doing a fall kidding this year to spread out the work load.
First Fresheners will be posted soon-don't lose hope!
NOTE: This is a working herd.
Placement preference will be given to active
Performance herds.

Elfin Acres ! Teasel 2*M SG Elite +EEV87 in 2019
|
Oak Apple Idomeneo
|
|
|
In the fall of 2022 Teasel met the man of her dreams, Idomeneo. She took him seriously and in mid January 2023 presented her grateful milkmaid with a pair of stunning kids. Her long awaited doeling is a delight. When her buckling arrived he was immediately identified as "One who keeps the family jewels" Even soaking wet he had the structure and presence I look for in a buck. This is a guy that has never been 'out of balance'. He has it ALL and a bag of chips.
He is available to a discerning herd! |

Qwilleran is good lad! We have retained several of his daughters so he can move on.
We finally got Linear Appraisal this year. His score was a very respectable +V+ 83. His daughters have shown superb width and dairy character. I have lowered the $ on this boy to get him into a home to work. He has made a generous contribution to the herd and now needs to move on. |
