Loki (never seen it spelled "Lloki" before) is one of the Norse gods - usually involved in nasty practical jokes. Mind you, I could see him being very fond of goats.

Thats not what Lloki means when you Google it....not very nice and I too wouldnt have it as a Herd name. I voted for Shy Meadow.

Myth and Legend sound overstated or almost boasting. Lloki is troublesome. Shy Meadows has a nice sound when said aloud. I choose that one.

OOPS! I did not know that. I took the first three letters of my husband's name LLOYD and the first two letters of mine, KIM.

I don't think I'll use Lloki then. Yicks!

I like Legend Hills -- sort of has a LOTR's sound to it. But you'll have to breed really super goats to live up to it, LOL!

The following buck (About 11 weeks old now) has an awesome pedigree. What do you think? I hope he throws super kids next spring!

9PATCH GLEASON DANGER ZONE (My upcoming herd sire for next years kids)

Sire: Cherry Glen Romulus Gleason *B

SS: SG Willow Run Atlas Romulus +*B 91 EEE
SD: SGCH Cherry Glen T. Gesture Glitter 4*M 92 EEEE

Dam: Royal Colors CGIT Treeka 90 VVEE

DS: GCHCherry Glen Inman Temptation +*B 89 VEE
DD: SGCH Cherry Glen Tri Alice Alibi 2*M 90 VEEV


Of his Great Grands (8 animals total) 6 of them are SGCH, one is GCH and the last one is ++*B
I do not mean to gloat. I just wanted to share. I am very excited to use him this fall.

The does/doelings have nice pedigrees too.

By the way... what does LOTR stand for. *Blush* I don't know.

I went with Shy Meadows.. Myth Hills sounds like a kid with a lisp talking about his first grade teacher
Gorgeous beasts though....very nice indeed~
