Robin + Sulu

Spring 2013: Triplets - 3 does
Spring 2014: Triplets - 2 does and 1 Buck
Spring 2015: Singleton Doe
Spring 2016: Triplets: Two does, 1 buck
Spring 2017: QUADS!!!! Three Does, One Buck
Robin -April 2014
|
Sulu - November 2016
|
Colors by Mom: If you are interested in such things... Robin is homozygous black, and Sulu's father was black, so he carries the recessive black base color allele. Babies have a 50% chance of being either base black or brown. Both Robin and Sulu are roan, so babies will likely be roan (I don't know the statistics, but in our herd, roan appears to act as a dominant allele). Robin's and ears appear to be homozygous for the frosted allele, but Sulu's ears have some of the speckles suggestive of the presence of the brown-ear allele. And both Robin and Sulu have splashes of white on them. We expect three kids, at least one of which will be black, probably with small splashes, and all with frosted ears, though some may have speckles on their ears. April is a Sulu/Robin cross.
QUADS! 7PM 3/15/17: First - brown roan buckling, "Cedar"; Second - grey & white doeling, "Willow"; Third - brown roan doeling, "Aspen"; Fourth - black doeling, "Ash". Blog coming soon.
Sylvia + Nebula
Due: April 4
Sylvia is a 3 year old Second Freshener
Spring 2016: Twin Bucks
Spring 2017: ???
1 kid Available, to Know More to to the For Sale Page
Sylvia - November 2016
~Witch Hazel Para Sylvia~
|
Nebula - Oct 2015
~Black Mesa Magic Nebula~
|
Colors by Mom: If you are interested in such things... Both Sylvia and Nebula carry the black allele, so there is a 25% chance of black kids. Nebula is heterozygous for spots, so about 50% of his offspring have spots. Nebula also carries the allele for solid-colored (non-frosted) ears, and Sylvia is homozygous for solid-ear, so about 50% the babies will have solid colored ears and half will have frosted ears. Both Sylvia's mom (Sarina) and Nebula have produced babies that range from a light tan brown to a rich mahogany brown. Last year, this pairing produced a brown buckling with three tiny spots, and a brown buckling who was WILDLY spotted.
April + Nebula
Due: March 21
Two Year Old First Freshener!
Spring 2017: Twins - 1 Buck, 1 Doe
April - November 2016
~Witch Hazel Robin's April Fool~ |
Nebula - October 2015
~Black Mesa Magic Nebula~ |
Colors by Mom: If you are interested in such things... April is homozygous black and Nebula carries the black allele, so there is a 50% chance of black kids. Nebula is heterozygous for spots, so about 50% of his offspring have spots. April has just a few white spots on her, in a sort of splash-not-quite-there pattern. We believe that babies will be 50% with a small splash, and 50% will have spots, and they may be the same 50%. Nebula also carries the allele for solid-colored (non-frosted) ears, and if April picked up that allele from her father, then it's possible that 25% the babies will have solid colored ears and the rest will have frosted ears. 100% will be adorable. We will be able to make better predictions after this year.
Santra + Nebula
Due: March 28
2 Year Old First Freshener!
Spring 2017: Triplets - 2 Bucks, 1 Doe
2 kids Avalible, to Know More to to the For Sale Page
Santra - November 2016
|
Nebula - Oct 2015
|
Colors by Mom: If you are interested in such things... Santra's dad was black, so she carries the black allele and Nebula carries the black allele, so there is a 25% chance of black kids. Nebula is heterozygous for spots, so about 50% of his offspring have spots. Nebula also carries the allele for solid-colored (non-frosted) ears, and Santra's mother carried the brown-ear allele, but Santra's ears are pretty white. SO while it's possible that 25% the babies will have solid colored ears, we predict that the babies will have fully white ears, though half will CARRY the brown-ear allele from Nebula. Santra is a bit roan, so she will probably throw roan kids. We will be able to make better predictions after this year.

Our Kids!
We are willing to keep kids for two weeks after birth, but they can be picked up as soon as you like. After two weeks, we will charge five dollars a day for board and care. We will bottle raise the kids ourselves and suggest you continue this. Our own kids (that we retain) will stay on the bottle or lamb-bar for as long as four months. All kids are registrable and once you have paid off kids you can leave with them and their registration paper work. I will try to fill your reserved kid, but if the doe decides to have all boys and you reserved a girl (or something like that), then you are welcome to get another kid who is not claimed yet. Also, it will be first reserved, first served!
Senior does (does who have freshened) will have the limit of four reserves and junior does (this is their first freshening). three.
The only situation where I would keep a kid that is otherwise reserved is if the doe dies. Thanks!

*Non-refundable except in the case that the kid gender you want is not born. Then, of course, you get a cheerful refund.
Warning!
We promise all kids will be CAE-free, G-6-S normal, and CL free. We will not keep any kids that were reserved because we 'like them too much to let go'. The only situation that we would keep a kid that was not retained is if the doe or buck dies.
The first person to reserve is the first on to pick kids. No whining. If there is only one doe born and two were reserved, we will refund your money.
