wanted moonspotted nigerian buckling in 2011

Its probably too far away, but Old Mountain Farm is expecting many moon spotted goats. I like their lineage, they are going for correctness and dairy production. Plus they are offering deals if you take 2.

 

Too bad you are so far away! I have a really nice moon-spotted doe with blue eyes out of Pholia Farm and Rosasharn lines with some great milking genetics behind her. She is bred to a really nice buck with some amazing lines who also has the potential to pass blue eyes. If she has any doelings I'd like to keep one...but I really don't need any more bucklings and her line produces heavy moonspotting with pretty good frequency (at least her dam and grand-dam on her mom's side.)

But I am in Oregon, so alas.

 

When you consider the cost of driving 1000 miles and staying over night it might be less money to have exactly what you want shipped... there is a pet airline that might be a good way to go... less stress.

 

I know of some, but most would require shipping. Prairiewood has some that I like. They did end purchasing Hot Stuff from OMF. Laurel Haven has some. Double Durango has quite a few. Ummm...hmmmm...Rosasharn has some, NC Promisedland has some too. Those are all I can think of at the moment. Rosasharn would be a top choice for me, but i'm not sure what your spending price would be or what lines you like. Rosasharn is pretty expensive, but their goats are top notch.

Here's one in Northern Missouri.

 

These people are located in Northern Michigan... http://www.rhythmicacres.com/index.html

They have a moonspotted buck from OMF so I'm thinking they'll prolly have some moonspotted kids!

Good luck! I'll keep my eyes open for you!

I have a few moonspotted does that are due to freshen in the spring. You can see them on my website: http://www.jchmountainfarm.com under the breeding page. I can send you extended pedigrees if you want, and you can also see some pedigree info on the individual adult pages. We are a really small farm, but have a CAE/CL/Johne's free herd. We are in No. Central WV....

 

ground shipping.... I usually get kids shipped via ground cross country for about $200-$250 per kid. Fill rates.... so you'll likely have to meet them at the closest highway, this way you don't have to compromise herd quality because of location.

 

Very nice...congrats!!! :thumb:

 

If you are willing to drive 1,000 miles you should just look everywhere...find the best buck you can and consider transport. You're going to spend the same in gas as you would to transport a buckling from anywhere in the U.S. just a thought....unless you are really looking forward to taking the trip.
