Castle Rock Copper Penny
DOB: 2014
Copper Penny is coming to American Jewell Farm as a 7 year old buck that has been loved by Sandi Walters at MeadowMist Nigerians. Sandi states that Copper produces correct teat placement and has improved MSL's. She said that he throws amazing toplines. When I look at his pedigree, I see Rosasharn animals that I know and love from when I first was introduced to the breed. The New England foundation animals in this West Coast dude will blend beautifully with the genetics that I have.

Sassafras finished her master championship in AGS as a two-year-old. Despite being a smaller doe (about 20.5 inches tall), she is still competitive in the milk pail, and made #7 for butterfat in the top ten list in 2004.
Sassafras won the 2005 AGS National Show, winning Best Doe in Show.

DOB: 5/26/2017
Old School Creamery James is a long and gorgeous chocolate buck that I overlooked when I first brought him from Maine. He traveled here with Old Mountain Farm Grey Cheek and Old Mountain Farm Hercules which meant I put James on the back burner while I used my more famous buckaroos first. Well, my friends were happy to use him and I'll be darned if his daughter's udder just blew me away this year at the AGS Nationals!
Of course, Julie Mannix of Old School Creamery gets credit for this chocolatey buck! When she bred Old Mountain Farm JustPlainEd and Old Mountain Farm JustPlainJane, she created the perfect udder buck who is also long and correct!

Primarily, I'm a hand milker because I hate cleaning hoses from milk machines. Because of that, I want goats that are easy to milk and have teats that I can actually get my hands on! Old Mountain Farm JustJustPlainJane has that dreamy udder with large teats and nice attachments.

SG Old Mountain Farm Cernunnos is pretty close to being the perfect buck. In his lifetime, he created many daughters that were both productive and performed well in the show ring. I can count 16 offspring who earned the Superior Genetics rating from ADGA and that doesn't count the multiple GCH. Cernunnos was a Promisedland Tur-Beau son and you can see it through and through.

DOB: 5-6-18
Corde Du Roi's dam was lost during his birth which made him a very special gift for his breeder. I knew that when Laura sent Corde my way, it was the greatest compliment she could give. He was her pride and joy- the culmination of many years of breeding goats. Corde's pedigree has many well known Nigerian Dwarf goats that we all know and love. To see him in person is to love him even more. He stands on straight legs and is dairy/ correct! His rear leg set has such amazing width and his escutcheon has a cathedral arch. This boy is a stunner!
At the end of the 2021 AGS National Show, there was a Midwest Dairy Goat Show and Corde Du Roi won Grand Champion, Best of Breed, and Best in Show when standing next to all of his large dairy goat counterparts!

She was lost far too young after birthing a single buckling. Laura considered her to be the best doe ever produced in her breeding program.

Beans was my souvenir that I brought home from a trip back to Maine. He is a line breeding on CH Weedy Tavern Farm Lilly LA93 EEEE! I love everything about his dam, grand dam, and pedigree so it wasn't hard to fall in love with this unicorn goat. Yes, he is also moon-spotted, blue-eyed, and polled which is all icing on the cake.

As a 2 year old, Tiny Angels RNB Sassaneq became a finished champion! I was fortunate enough to meet her in person and she was breath taking. Her owner loved her doe CH Weedy Tavern Farm Lilly, but she says that Sassy might actually be nicer. We were fortunate enough to be in the right place and the right time when Sassy kidded with triplet bucklings.

CH Weedy Tavern Farm Lilly is one of only two Nigerian Dwarf goats to ever earn a LA score of 93! Not only was her udder true perfection, but her topline and flat rump was just breathtaking. I think that Beans looks a lot like his famous grand dam and he also has that beautiful topline and rump. In 2019, when I picked Beans up, I was able to meet Lilly in person and she was just as beautiful on the farm as she is in photos.

"Handsome" has a pedigree packed with many of the Old Mountain Farm goats that I've admired for a long time. He has a beautiful general conformation with notable brisket extension and a wide rear leg set. Of course, after 18+ years of loving Nigerian Dwarf goats, this is the year that I've suddenly been drawn to the beauty of buckskin goats. :) I'm looking forward to the bumper crop of buckskin beauties that Handsome will provide us.

Walnut Mtn is not a herd that I am familiar with which was part of the reason that I first looked past this buckling. Then, when Alesia posted a photo of his dam's udder, I fell in love. I really prefer hand milking and large/ easy to milk teats are what I'm hoping to breed for. When you look back in Twyla's pedigree, you find Castle Rock and Buttin' Heads animals.
