Seriously! Whenever I get the prettiest kids they are doomed to end in the freezer before they are a year old.

Ladys buckling.

The spotted Lamanchas are all Eclipse sons. I can bet that I'll get spots out of Eclipse every season....but in three years, only on the bucks!


I have three boring plain ones(two black and one cream), but all the rest are more colorful than my doelings.

Twoscompany, I've got a couple nubian bucks available. Have one out of Mayflower you can see her on my website. He is a real nice kid. Red roan with frosted ears. Wide and deep already at around a month old.

Oh, I don't know. My freezer boys are pretty, but honestly all I see when I look at them is them without their hides, turning on a spit.

It's so you'll learn to tan hides. Make gloves, not war.
