Our Herdsires
*B Black Mesa Abraham
LA 85 VV+
G6S Normal by Parentage
ADGA Purebred Nubian N001875823
We are thrilled beyond words to have brought home another herdsire from Black Mesa Ranch!
Abraham's dam, Reese, is what we would hope for all of our does: Elegant, strong, and extremely productive. Reese has peaked at over two gallons for her last two years on test and was on the 2017 ADGA Top Ten Breed Leader list as number 1 for butterfat! She also has the impressive Linear Appraisal score of 91 VVEE as a 4 year old.
Abraham is an amazingly gentle, easygoing boy and he passes that lovely temperament to his kids. So far, his daughters have beautiful, level toplines and lovely, well attached, productive udders. We are so excited to see how this boy continues to impact our herd!

Goldthwaite Fegor
LA 84 +++
G6S Normal
Purebred Nubian ADGA N001897172
Fegor comes to us from the world renowned Goldthwaite herd. We love Goldthwaite as a very consistent line that milks well, show competitively and have that classic dual purpose Nubian style that we love so much. Fegor has done a fine job in our herd adding length and strength of bone while keeping our milk volume high and beautiful udders well attached. His kids tend to be a little slow to mature (I'll be honest -- some are downright ugly as yearlings), but it is worth the wait when they catch up with themselves during their second year. We are excited to freshen quite a few more Fegor daughters this spring!

Goldthwaite Rudi Valentino
Purebred Nubian ADGA N002106913
When we got the call from Becky Goldthwaite telling us that she had the perfect buck for our herd, how could we say no?! Rudi is gorgeous and has some incredibly powerful animals behind him. We are thoroughly excited to see how he follows up our other bucks and what he adds to our herd! His first kids are hitting the ground and so far, our hopes are not being disappointed!
Thank you, Becky, for trusting us with this gentle, lovely boy!

Rudi's dam, Goldthwaite Lucille.
Although she hasn't been out much, Lucille is beautiful and very productive and we can't wait to add her genetics to our herd. Photos courtesy of Goldthwaite Nubians. |
