Holy mother of all blessings, Batman! I never once imagined that Clover would be able to join the Owlhaven herd, and then BOOM! It happened.
To give you a bit of background, earlier this year someone asked me, if you could have any buck in the world, who would it be? My immediate response was "Cleveland Sage." I've loved that buck since I first met him years ago, before he had proved himself through his daughters. Of course, the last thing I need is another buck, given my large herd of exceptional males. Fast forward to 2017, and I am welcoming Cleveland Sage's full sister to my herd. Welcome, Clover, to your forever home!
Here is her breeder's description of Clover: "Clover is long bodied, and dairy, with elegance, femininity, good brisket extension and angularity. Her udder is well attached with an exceptional amount of foreudder extension, a good MSL and teats that are large, plumb, and easy to milk." ~ Sarah Hawkins, Castle Rock Farm.

Skuttlebut's dam, Intrigue is an exceptional doe, scoring 91 EEEE two years in a row, placing first and first udder in her class at the 2012 Nationals, and placing second and second udder in her class at the 2013 Nationals. Five of her daughters have been LA'd and all have done very well for their age groups, with one daughter going 90 VEEE as a three year old. Owlhaven's own Dill's GA Fascination just scored VVEE 90 under one of ADGA's toughest appraisers (and might have done better with a more skilled handler, I'm not the best).

Alegria is a beautiful, blue-eyed daughter of Annie, one of the finest does to grace the farm and a doe who has consistently received high scores in linear appraisal. Annie is also a strong milker, and I expect the same from Alegria.
Alegria is long bodied and balances dairyness and strength. She is wide and deep throughout, with great openness in her escutcheon area and between her hocks. She levels out beautifully on the move. I expect her to go ELITE and Superior Genetics when she matures.

      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.

Reading Performance Pedigrees
Annie's name is a good place to start when it comes to understanding all the code associated with the American Dairy Goat Association performance programs.
ELITE is a designation awarded on the basis of a complex genetic calculation that focuses on milk production. Sires and dams that receive the Elite Buck or Elite Doe designation is considered to be in the top 5% of the nation genetically with regard to milk production.
- Her name is SG Proctor Hill Farm Pistol Annie 2*M 5-02 EX90 (EEEV).
- SG stands for Superior Genetics, a designation that Annie earned based on her linear appraisal scores (quality of conformation compared to an ideal goat) and milk test results (how much milk and percent of butterfat).
- Her dam is SGCH, which means she is a finished champion and superior genetics.
- Proctor Hill Farm is the name of the farm that bred her.
- 2*M means that she is the second generation on her maternal side to earn a milk star.
- 5-02 is her age at the time of linear appraisal. She was five years and two months old.
- EX90 means that she is excellent with a final score of 90. Only one Nigerian has received the highest score of 93.
- EEEV is the abbreviation for her scores in the four major categories evaluated in linear appraisal. It means that she scored excellent in general appearance (category 1), dairy strength (category 2), and body capacity (category 3), and very good in mammary system (category 4).
ELITE is a designation awarded on the basis of a complex genetic calculation that focuses on milk production. Sires and dams that receive the Elite Buck or Elite Doe designation is considered to be in the top 5% of the nation genetically with regard to milk production.
Understanding Linear Appraisal Scores
- EX or E = Excellent = 90 and above, 91 and above are relatively rare in the breed. 93 has been awarded to only one goat in the history of the breed.
- VG or V = Very Good = 85 to 89
- GP or + = Good Plus = 80 to 84
- A = Acceptable = 70 to 79
- F = Fair = 60 to 69
- P = Poor = 59 and below
Goats are considered mature at five years of age and receive their final linear appraisal scores at that time. Younger goats typically receive lower scores because their bodies are immature compared to the ADGA "ideal" goat. In human terms, imagine comparing an awkward 13 year old with a perfect "10" supermodel like Gisele Bündchen.
