Available GoatsTo ensure that I maintain a small herd of the highest possible quality, I keep no more than three goats from any year's kid crop. Each year the various years' crops are evaluated and the animals that fall to the bottom of each crop's ranks is sold. Animals with linear appraisal scores are fully analyzed (both good and bad) in their descriptions.

On July 4, 2021, I purchased Charisma back from her previous owner, who could no longer keep her because of a catastrophic illness in the family. Charisma is a very dairy doe with loose, pliable skin and a buttery soft udder texture. As a four year old who has undergone a lot of stress recently, she is still milking very well, producing 4# in her first two milkings at Owlhaven.

DOB: 4.6.17
Height: Litter: 4 kids Sire: Castle Rock Romancer *B VEE 87
Inbreeding Coefficient: 4.078%, 10 generations Linear Appraisal:
2021: 4-02 VEV+ 87 Structural Scores Charisma scored Very Good in General Appearance and Body Capacity. She scored excellent in Dairy Strength. She received a Good Plus for her Mammary System. Her final score of 87 indicates that she is "Very Good" overall. Linear Traits Charisma is a lovely, correct, and milky doe who demonstrates "Excellent" Dairy Strength and "Very Good" General Appearance and Body Capacity. Coco is easy to hand milk and is very productive. Her teats are plumb and have good diameter and length. She has very good capacity in rear udder side view, udder height, and udder depth. Her udder texture is pliable and soft. My only area of concern is rear udder arch (16/28.42), which I anticipate will improve once she has had an opportunity to recover from what has been a traumatic year for her. |

Sly Farms Bitsy
DOB: 3/10/2014 Healthy, sweet doe, will make a great pet or cute yard ornament. Bitsy has not been able to get pregnant, so is sold as sterile, without papers. |
Starter Herds
As an educator, I enjoy helping people get started. So when I can, I offer starter herds. Discounts are built into starter herd pricing. Plus, I run my inbreeding calculator on these combinations to ensure that they are within an acceptable range.
Submit a goat request form to inquire about possible combinations.
Bucks and Bucklings
3G Family Farm That One Kid 01-04 +VV 84 - $700
Sulaymaan Quinn sons are rarely offered!
Kid is available because I have retained a (gorgeous!) son out of SGCH Castle Rock Owl's Clover and have invested in quite a bit of his sire's semen. BTW - semen is NOT cheap!

Linear Appraisal:
01-04 +VV 84 Linear Appraisal Notes *Methodology given at bottom of page. 2021 Notes: Kid has Very Good Dairy Strength and Body Capacity overall. He has a beautiful, masculine head, and is very strong and deep without being coarse. He is smoothly blended throughout. His rear legs are clean and wide apart when viewed from the rear. While he received an A for having spread toes, his hooves are strong with a deep heel and forward alignment. I view hooves as a good indicator of leg strength and cull for hooves that wear badly, Kid's hooves wear evenly and are super easy to maintain, something that makes me very happy. Kid's rump is both level (29/29.32) and wide (29/23.62). It falls off a little from thurl to thurl, resulting in a Good Plus (+) score overall. He is impressively wide and open when viewed from the rear. In short, I am very happy with his yearling appraisal. |

Owlhaven P Barbossa - POLLED - $700
Barbossa is very dairy, angular, and has the long bone pattern that I've come to expect from Panache. He stands square on correct feet and legs. I've retained his littermate, Barbados, and am very happy with how both bucklings are developing.

Inbreeding coefficient: 20%, 10 Generations |
Barbossa boasts two lines to SG Algedi Farm MB Manuka Honey ++*B and two lines to SGCH CRF Castle Rock Alum Root 1*M, the dam of Cleveland Sage. His grandsire is a full sibling to CH Castle Rock Tahitian Sunset, 2019 National Champion and National Best Udder AND a son of the great performance sire, SG Castle Rock Cleveland Sage ++*B ELITE. His paternal granddam, Jasmine, is a daughter of one of the greatest does to come from Algedi farm, GCH Algedi Farm RB Ocean Flower 6*M.
On the dam's side, Manuka Honey requires no introduction. Milkweed, an exceptionally promising yearling, was killed by an LGD (yes, it happens sometimes). Milkweed was sired by Dill's BF Diamond Rio +*B, a son of the Reserve National Champion SGCH Dill's XM Keena 4*M. Milkweed's dam was CRF Castle Rock Coral Bells 2*M, a maternal sibling to Cleveland Sage and one of Owlhaven's foundation does. I'm very selective about the doe lines that are on the farm, and at this time have only three lines that are at or above 3 generations Owlhaven breeding. Cora's line is at the 4th generation as of 2021. In the small world of Owlhaven Farm, this is a huge deal because when I am dissatisfied in some way (or need cash), entire doe lines get sold, only the very best remain at the farm.
Finally, a note about Buddleia. Buddleia has consistently been the star at linear appraisal time. In what has become an outstanding, albeit small, herd, she has always risen to the top when evaluated. In 2021, her udder demonstrated it's full potential, and it's worthy of grand championships!

Inbreeding coefficient: 5.099%, 10 generations |
Whiskey's genetics need no introduction. Her dam, Lucille Two, was an exceptional show doe. Whiskey is even more striking in appearance, scoring 91 EEEE from one of ADGA's toughest appraisers. Besides having an Excellent mammary system, she is excellent in shoulder assembly, legs, and back. She is very good in all other structural categories, including her rump, which is very wide and level! Whiskey is 21..5" tall at 6 years old.
