Jon's Austin Powers
I bought Austin back to
fix one problem in my herd. He is bred specifically to correct
rumps, mainly the flatness of the rump from hips to pins and thurl to
thurl. Correcting this should bring the angle of the udder up so
that it is more correct. He has several young kids on the ground
right now and they are looking quite nice. One of his daughters has shown extremely well this year, winning reserve CH at one show and grand CH at another - and she was bred back to her father. Like their father, his kids are extremely laid back, quiet kids showing improvement over their mothers in strength and general appearance. He usually throws pretty heads too. Austin was used in the Dairy Goat Journal's Nubian Buck Judging contest in the November/December 2007 issue. He was buck "D" and he won the class in all three categories of the scorecard. Way to go, Austin! I might just take him to a real buck show this spring. |

BREEDING SERVICE:
Service is available. Fee is $30 per doe bred. This includes a
registration application for goats eligible for recordation/registration
through the ADGA.
Boarding is available too. Price is $5.00 per doe per week, I
provide hay, you provide grain. Goats will be boarded in my 16'
stock trailer.
I do insist the following should you want to bring a goat for service:
No sick goats (NO sniffles, "wet"
coughs, wormy, ringworm, abscesses, large, swollen knees, limping/lame
goats or any other suspicious illnesses. (Don't think I will not
notice, I will and your goats will not be allowed to stay here.)
No emaciated or really thin goats
You should trim their hooves about two weeks
before coming to be bred. If you don't trim them, I will and it will
cost you $5.00 per goat. (You would NOT believe how many people
neglect hooves. DON'T trim any sooner than one week in case you nick
the goat's hooves and make them limp.)
Any does coming back in heat reasonably soon
after servicing will be allowed one free rebreeding up to one year later.
Should the doe not take that time, you would be advised to work with a vet
in determining whether or not your doe is in need of hormone therapy. |
