Whenever possible, I try to take pictures of the sires I have chosen to encorporate into my herd. While an outstanding pedigree and progeny listing are extremely important in evaluating a sire, I feel that a picture is truly worth a thousand words. Whenever I can obtain a picture, I will have it posted on this webpage.
SS: GCH *B Nodaway Dragon Slayer (92 EEEE)
Sire: *B Nodaway Sly Viper
SD: 5*M Nodaway Sorcerer Antigone (88V+EV)
DS: Calico Moon R.A.P. Snow Chief
Dam: 1*M GCH Aslan's Own C.C. Diamond (VEVE)
DD: Aslan's Own Carob Chip
I knew I wanted to use Rattler the second I saw his photo. He reminded me of Darshan's twin brother, Krishna, and I knew he'd be the perfect buck to breed to Darshan. (Photo retrieved from the Mamm-Key website: http://mammkey.com/index.html)
SS: ++*B Nixon's Kan Doo
Sire: ++*B Serendipity's Designer Genes
SD: GCH Serendipity's Jenny 4*M
DS: ++*B Sand Dance HLS Rico Suave
Dam: GCH Hoach's SRS Lyric 4*M (GCH and 1st Udder 1994 NATIONAL SHOW)
DD: CH Hoach's Quaag Golden Lark
Landmark struck us with his strong milking and show records. I was particularly pleased to see the National winnings in his background and then see the current National champion as his granddaughter. Apparantly the quality continues in that line!
SS: ++*B GCH New Era's Kane
Sire: *B My Mann
SD: Bosque-Valley ET and I Baby 1*M
DS: *B Bluff-Top Johnnies Pride
Dam: GCH Mi*Esperar Michcle La Payasa 13*M
DD: Mi*Esperar Dianara 12*M
Arjuna waltzed into the showring as a yearling (already taller than the older
bucks) and took two GCH legs while still very young. Only one leg counted, since
we hadn't used him as a stud the year before. As ADGA rules state, only one GCH
leg can count toward a championship before a buck has registered kids. However,
since then he has taken a few BBIS awards and has finished his GCH! We sold
him to a herd who was giving us some stiff competition at a show and were pleased
to hear back the following year about his kids. He was the sire of:
Best Junior Doe in Show at the OEF 2002
1st place Jr. Get of Sire at the MO State Fair 2002,
as well as 2nd place Jr. Get of Sire at the OEF 2002
For contact information, feel free to email. This is a Michcle son.
SS: ++*B New Era's Cappacino
Sire: +B Goodwoods James
SD: CH Goodwoods Ranchman's Jamieson (1st place 3yr old at '89 Nationals)
DS: *B Bluff-Top Johnnies Pride
Dam: GCH Mi*Esperar Michcle La Payasa 13*M
DD: Mi*Esperar Dianara 12*M
This boy was Darshan's twin brother. Another Michcle son and half brother to
Arjuna, I was happy to hear of his daughter's successes in the ring as well.
He was the sire of:
GCH Jr. Doe at the 2002 AR State Fair
1st place Jr. Get of Sire
1st place Best Three Females
If I can get a picture of Krishna, I will put it up. I have seen him as a yearling, and he had grown into a very handsome boy. Aside from the mature width that I love so much, he has perfect angulation in his rear legs and has passed it on to all of his daughters that I have seen. Stud service is offered for this buck near the Little Rock area. Please contact me for more information.
