Pending SG Does

1/15/2023

This coming fourth freshener has been waiting YEARS for a PTI. I guess good things come to those who wait and work hard. When/if ADGA decides they are ready to award SG, she will surely qualify! This is ​(SG) Twin Willows FN Henna 3*M 2*D VVVE 88

Also hitting it out of the park and apparently following in her dam's hoofprints. (SG) Twin Willows FA Isabelle 6*M (pending) VE+V 86, a first freshener out of SG Twin Willows J Elaine 5*M ELITE *D and Hilltown Meadows Force Awakens. Production of 88% for first freshening and surely a contender for SG, if/when they are awarded.

And finally, the doe I am MOST proud of, and possibly the animal with the most potential I have ever produced. (SG) Twin Willows FL Iphigenia 3*M (pending) VEVE 88. Hitting 90th percentile in production on her first freshening.

Reservations are open on all of these does for Spring 2023!

I didn't really need another buck right now, but when I saw this guy come available, I just couldn't help myself.

Cade’s Lil Farm SE SleepNStag will be joining the Twin Willows herd later this season. He is sired by CH Old Mountain Farm StagSurprise, out of SGCH Old Mountain Farm SleepNBeauty 3*M AR VEEE 91. SleepNStag is the maternal uncle to most of our kids that will be born this season.

Today, I took a vacation day from work so that I could sort out my Spring kidding schedule. The 10+ hour round trip was worth it to bring this studmuffin home on temporary lease. Cade Cockburn, I cannot thank you enough for allowing Aladdin to come breed my does this season. He is the perfect gentleman and slept most of the way home. He's been here about forty minutes and has already bred two does LOL

Introducing Cade's Lil Farm PR Aladdin *B (Phoenix Farm DE Pop Rocks +* X SGCH Old Mountain Farm SleepNBeauty 3*M VEEE 91)
​

Aladdin will be breeding all does here.

Barn a Total Loss

First of all, everyone is fine. All the goats are fine and we are fine...but our beautiful barn is gone. Between 9:45 and 10pm on Sept 7th our barn went from fine to completely engulfed in flames. Inspector thinks it was lightning. This is absolutely my worst nightmare and last night I lived it. THIS is why I always keep my barn open! Thankfully, there were only minor injuries to two and all the goats got out. Ethan saved my junior buckling and his two wether buddies by pulling down the fence and getting them to safety. All the does made their way to the pasture and the bucks and the sheep huddled in the corner of their yard. For the worst possible nightmare, this was the best possible outcome. I had planned to do extensive AI on my does this season, but my tank and all my semen stock are now gone. We will still have a Spring 2022 kidding season but it will look much different than we had planned. 

Twin Willows is still here, and we will rebuild.
