Oak Apple Idomeneo has join the Elfin Acres Fraternity. This is a buck that I love to watch. He is so balanced! He has SG Old Mountain Farm Cernunnos ++*B on top and bottom of the pedigree. His dam, SGCH Oak Apple Seria 4*M is the Granddaughter of SGCH Camanna GD Moonlight Opera 3*M. What's not to love about this stunning boy! Ido's offspring are amazing and there are a LOT of them in the herd as a result. He still has a bit of work to do here but could be available to the perfect home. He really stamps the general appearance and dairy character on his offspring. Lovely toplines and rump structure.

Oak Apple Enrico at January 5 2024
|
Oak Apple Enrico arrived in 2023 as a wee mite. This spring he has some AMAZING kids on the ground. He was a busy guy last fall and I want to keep all of his doelings! They are elegant little beauties. Enrico's Dam, Oak Apple Mimi just won Supreme Best in Show at Oregon State Fair this year! She is a stunning doe and Enrico is very proud of her.
Enrico is available by private treaty with Duva Appleman. He has already filled his Keeper list here. Enrico ADGA genetics |
Elfin Acres MT Earnest
|
Elfin Acres MT Earnest was the last kid born in 2023. His mum Cherish is out of Elfin Acres Charisma 5*M and Old Mountain Farm Justin Quinn. Cherish was bred to Oak Apple Matteo just before he left for Washington. I normally do not keep bucks as my doe herd has been closed for a number of years. This young lad stood out from the start and got to keep his bits. Superb dairy character, width, and he is a sweet guy too. His mom took the year off in 2024 but we will see her shine in 2025 and beyond.

REFERENCE BUCKS! Jimmy and Orpheus have returned to Oak Apple Farm to continue their excellent work!

Oak Apple Farm Orpheus joined the herd in 2020. He is linebred on SG Old Mtn Farm Cernunnos ++*B. We retained his first doeling and will freshen her in 2022. He has been busy this fall!

OAK APPLE JIMMY DOOLITTLE kids started arriving in March 2021 and we were impressed. (I guess retaining 9 of them counts as impressed right?) Since we retained so many we shared him back home to keep up the good work! He is an influential sire already! His first daughters earned him Junior Get of Sire at Oregon State Fair in 2021!

Oak Apple Matteo joined Elfin Acres buck lineup recently. We are thrilled to have this boy! His sire Oak Apple Maestoso *B is already represented in the herd with Winsome and Allure who have dazzled us with their form and production. His Dam, Oak Apple Cassiopeia is a stunning doe.
Matteo was a BUSY boy in 2022 before he moved north. We miss him but his legacy continues in 2023. |

A note about the photographs for the website
The really great show ring photos are graciously provided by Melanie Ferguson.
She is amazing.
The rest of the photos....well, we're challenged, we admit it.
Sometimes our subjects are just not in the mood and there aren't enough cookies in the world to change their minds.
