We are so very proud to announce that Twin Willows J Elaine has made the ELITE list for the second time in a row. The ELITE designation is given to animals within the breed who are in the top 5% in Milk Fat Protein Dollars (MFP$)  Elaine made the list in the Summer 2018 list with 95th percentile and this week made the Fall 2018 list with 98th percentile!  Not only that, but Elaine has been awarded Superior Genetics, which indicates that she is in the top 15% of Nigerian Dwarf does who have superior PTI (Production/Type Index) calculations.  In a nutshell, it means that she is excelling in DHI and LA. We also have two more animals who have made Superior Genetics this round.  We have also just dried up three does who have made the requirements for their milk stars. I feel so humbled and extremely proud that these animals are finally showing what they can do.  It's been a long, long eight years and we are finally getting to where we want to be with our herd. 

​Without further ado, we introduce the newest BLING added to the following goats names:

SG Twin Willows J Elaine 2-00 +VVV 87 ELITE 5*M

Update 2/18 At any time in the future, should you decide to sell a breeding animal (buck or doe) that you have purchased from Twin Willows, we ask for first right of refusal on the animal being sold.  This means that we kindly ask you to tell us first before offering for sale to another person, so that we have the option to purchase the animal and bring him/her back into our herd.

It has taken me quite awhile to make this official post. I needed time to process, and it just hurt too much to talk about. It still hurts so badly I get choked up just thinking about it. 

I am still confused as to what exactly went wrong, but the fact remains that I have lost my first doe due to kidding complications.  On January 4th, GCH J-Nels DH L'il Red went into labor and delivered triplets (1D, 2B) that were all stillborn. In the process of passing her deceased kids, Red suffered a tear in her uterus, and she passed away at 2:37 am the following morning on January 5th. Red was not here for very long.  I only bought her back in September 17, and the loss for our herd is unimaginable, made even worse by the fact that her sweet, perfect babies were all stillborn.  

Rest in Peace GCH J-Nels DH L'il Red
You will always be truly missed.
